Anti-Americanism on Parade
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Hugo Chavez spoke in front of the UN today. I would dare say that both made enough unbelievable comments to hurt their cases, not that they care.
I found Chavez's repeated, "Bush is the devil," comments to be particularly choice, and apparently some in the assembly thought so too, because he got a reasonable laugh from the "crowd" when he first made the comparison. Hugo isn't much of a comedian though, and he threw off his timing by repeating it throughout the rest of his speech. Can't beat that dead horse and continue to get laughs, you know.
I'd like to say that these two woke up some world leaders to the threats we all face today, but that is just wishful thinking.
