I am not and I don't believe that is the problem of others, blunt speaking. We are offended at crudeness, calous bad behavior and we would be happy to get the UN out of our country. We pay more than anyone else and more than most of them together. Vulgarity is never a method for making any situation better, it is crass belonging to one who can think only in slurs, hate and violent language.

Those of that church have a different take on God/Jesus than I. It would be a sacrilige to have someone talke about my president even when he was Bill Clinton that way. God says we are to hold them up because he put them there. Pray for them not ridicule.

So many take him at his word. They do not know first hand nor do they want to learn. By the time they are learning it is to late.

I agree it is all about the hate toward Bush. Such a dangerous position.

Attacks on Chavez
Chavez certainly seems to have set the cat among the pigeons.
Writers on this site are basically accusing Chavez of having bad manners. However, pretty obviously I would have thought, Chavez was speaking at the United Nations, and as such is not restricted by normal conventions relating to a foreign visit. If the US is so prickly about blunt speaking, then it might be time to move the UN headquarters to another country. Venezuala might be a good choice...

Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez launched a second personal attack on President George W. Bush, using a visit to a church to call the US leader an “alcoholic” and a “sick man.”
A day after Chavez used the UN bully pulpit to call Bush “the devil” a “tyrant” who acts like he owns the world.........prompting broad condemnation in the United States..........Chavez was equally vitriolic as he spoke at the church in Harlem.
“Bush is an alcoholic, a sick man with a lot of hang-ups,” declared the left-wing leader. “He walks like John Wayne.”
Hmmmmm….sounds awfully familiar, that tripe...........
Bush is “an alcoholic?”
That sounds like Martin Sheen (a “good Catholic” with enough 12-step exposure to know better than to take another man’s inventory) calling President Bush “a white knuckle drunk"
Bush is a “sick man with a lot of hangups?”
That sounds like almost anyone at Air America........or on any lefty blog who pretends to sophistication by suggesting - like real bigots - that President Bush is an “uptight Christian”........... simply because his moral values are not theirs.
Bush “walks like John Wayne?”
Crap........the press has been caricaturing President Bush as a “cowboy” since before he was elected.
All Chavez is doing is repeating exactly the idiotic crap that the left has been spewing for 6 years. And the Democrats who have encouraged the hate.......................

...It really has nothing to do with left or right. Of course its wrong to enter someone's home or country, accept their hospitality and fling vile insults at them...kind of a no brainer. Lef t as well as right can get that one. And I have an answer to your question but I'm not giving it, cause you know it too, and I'm not going to go there. I think all of them are setting a terrible example across the globe...this precedent of calling people's elected officials evil and devils is disgusting if you ask me. If we're not careful we're going to blow the planet up pointing the finger at each other....saying its the other guys fault

There are some on the left who are suggesting that Hugo Chavez’s remarks are simply an indicator that the world “disrespects” President Bush…well…I wonder who gave them the idea that they could?

The truth is this guy has a lot of oil and a lot of support from all across the Third World. When you have what people want you can get away with just about anything, for a while.

you really want to know what I think? :-) Well, I think he was wrong of course, but I think there is far too much name calling and demonizing being flung around by world leaders. They should try growing up. Oh, he's gaining "good guy " status with some cause he wants to provide heating for Harlem. I heard an interesting NYcouncilman praising him to the nines on MSNBC this morning. He was all but calling him a hero, actually I think he was. It takes all kinds to make a world don't it? Blessings on your Saturday!

Over the last few days many American's are calling him more than crazy. Did you see in Boston this morning they want the Citgo landmark sign taken down? Even Democrats have come out and said this man is over the top. There will always be a few that will capitalize on any opportunity, but the masses will not. No one likes this man except those who are very poor or are like him. Having been to his country I can tell you the people are very poor there (third world status)...the back lash to what he has said is just in the beginning. Don't look for a lot of Dem's to align with this man...even Sharpton put him over the edge..
