Well alright, let's see if I can give it a go. Were Chavez's words strong? Yeah, and if I were in his shoes I wouldn't have said them in quite that manner.

You can't piss off the world with imperialist policies and illegal, immoral, and unwarranted invasions without expecting some of the world's leaders to get a little upset.
While he used unfortunate language, it's about damn time that someone stepped up and named the pink elephant in the room for what it is.
President Bush has done more damage to this country than any other president, ever. Our international reputation is at an alltime low. The fact that a world leader is pissed off enough to call him the devil is simply more evidence of that.
