political : AMERICAND RALLY AROUND BUSH AFTER CHAVEZ COMMENTS [+] serious ballot by Beauregard ACTIVE Thu Sep 21, 06 - Sat Oct 21, 06 Surprising many, Democrats are speaking up and out against Hugo Chavez's comments at the UN yesterday, in which he called Bush the devil and made a long diatribe filled with flowery words and meaningless rhetoric. Democrat Leader Nancy Pelosi said: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - One of President George W. Bush's fiercest political opponents at home took his side on Thursday, calling Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez a "thug" for his remark that Bush is like the devil. "Hugo Chavez fancies himself a modern day Simon Bolivar but all he is an everyday thug," House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said at a news conference, referring to Chavez' comments in a U.N. General Assembly speech on Wednesday. "Hugo Chavez abused the privilege that he had, speaking at the United Nations," said Pelosi, a frequent Bush critic. "He demeaned himself and he demeaned Venezuela" Charles Rangel said: AN ATTACK ON BUSH IS AN ATTACK ON ALL AMERICANS. 'You do not come into my country, my congressional district, and you do not condemn my president. If there is any criticism of President Bush, it should be restricted to Americans, whether they voted for him or not. I just want to make it abundantly clear to Hugo Chavez or any other president, but do not come to the United States and think because we have problems with our president that any foreigner can come to our country and not think that Americans do not feel offended when you offend our Chief of State'. What do you think of this? To me it shows that some foreign leaders still don't understand the American psyche. But it also says that most of the time, as a nation, we can put politics aside to stick up for each other. What is your opinion on these developments? I think its great and defending your President is the right thing to do I think Chavez was right Ballot #102284 : SEE RESULTS Comment: show your vote with comment?
