If I were the Prez:
"Hugo Chaves had a little temper tantrum today. Perhaps we should grant him his wish. OK-as of tomorrow, the UN building is to be vacated. We resign our membership effective immediately. Oh, and by the way Hugo, and all you Democrats: That "war for oil" you're talking about? It's ON. We're going to crush that little Communist piss ant like the piece of horsesh*t that he is, and take the oil."
But...I'm not the President.
You got my vote for that speech! :-)
Or...
"Thanks for that question David (Gregory). No, we have nothing to say about the apparent explosions in Venezuela last night. Our people are looking into it, scanning satellite images as we always do in threat analysis. Our hearts go out to the Venezuelans. As to your second question about the death of President Chavez, as I said our hearts go out to the Venezuelan people and we hope for a prompt and fair election."
