GW has yet to put me on his dinner invitation list. I am trying not to feel slighted. ;)

Speaking of which, have you heard on the news all bush bashing being dealt out by Venezuela and Cuba? Words such as, "tyrant," "dictator," and "devil" just to name a few things. Hugo has asked for the UN to make a full investigation. If I didn't know any better, I'd think the two were working overtime at generating further animosity worldwide towards the bush administration, but for what end? Just venting a little steam, or a political move? It's hard to say at this point IMO. If it's venting, what do they hope to accomplish or gain by this outburst? If political, how will they benefit from the possible fallout of these accusations?

EDIT: Thought I'd add a few links to for validity's sake;
