Smells Like Sulfur

I’m not really into politics and had never voted until the last election. (No, I didn’t vote for George Bush.) I couldn’t resist commenting on the latest political news…

Perhaps Venezula’s president, Hugo Chavez, needs to see an ear, nose, & throat doctor. I’m pretty sure that if the podium at the UN Security Council meeting smelled like sulfur, someone would’ve noticed before him. On the verge of Halloween, I have to admit I do find it amusing that Chavez accuses George W of being the devil. It takes some nerve to walk into a meeting held on US soil and accuse Bush of being a tyrant, dictator, a supporter of terrorism, and a threat to the human race. Yes, indeed, Chavez’ comments and approach were undignified and unbecoming of any country’s president. In his speech, he also said that the UN system has collapsed and is worthless. Yet... He’s trying to go after a seat on the UN Security Council. He wants to take away veto powers for the permanent members (US, Russia, China, Britain, France). Do we really want countries certain Middle East countries to gain more control in the world? Chavez also suggested the UN headquarters be moved from NY. Where do you think he wants the headquarters to be? LOL, you got it... Venezuela. I don’t agree with George W’s domestic/foreign policies or the way he goes about things, but c’mon Hugo... What are you thinking?
