President Hugo Chavez dismissed Washington's concerns that Venezuela's democracy is under threat, saying a "dictatorship" led by President Bush poses a true threat to democracy around the world.
Condemning the war in Iraq, the Venezuelan leader said that Bush and John Negroponte, a former director of national intelligence who is designated for the No. 2 position in the State Department, should be tried for "war crimes" committed by the U.S. military across the globe.
"The two of them are criminals. They should be tried and thrown in prison for the rest of their days," Chavez told a news conference.
"If he had any dignity, the president of the United States would quit. The U.S. president doesn't have the political or moral capacity to govern," he added.
Chavez was responding to comments made on Wednesday by Bush, who said he was concerned about Venezuela's democracy.
"I am concerned about the undermining of democratic institutions. And we're working to help prevent that from happening," Bush said in an interview with Fox News.

This is good news for Bush. I judge a man by the enemies he makes.
This isn't either news or anything new.
Chavez should call 911 to see if anybody gives a damn what he thinks.
If 911's line is busy call Cindy Sheehan or John Kerry ,Maybe they do.
SLAM or JDAM him back
This guy must be a democrat.
Separated at birth?
What international law is President Bush breaking?
Doesnt Chavez have anything better to do with his time?
At a small terminal in the Texas Panhandles, three strangers are awaiting their shuttle flight. One is a native american passing from Oklahoma. Another, a local ranch hand on his way to Ft. Worth for a stock show. The third passenger is an Arab student, newly arrived from the Middle East.
To pass the time they strike up a conversation on recent events, and the discussion drifts to their diverse cultures. Soo n the Westerners learn that the Arab is a devout Muslim. The conversation falls into an uneasy lull. The cowpoke leans back in his chair, crosses his boots on a magazine table, and tips his big hat forward over his face.
Finally, the Native American clears his throat and softly he speaks, "Once my people were many, now we are few."
The Muslim raises an eyebrow and leans forward, "Once my people were few," he sneers, " and now we are many. Why do you suppose that is?"
The Texan shifts his toothpick to one side of his mouth and from the darkness beneath his Stetson says, "That's 'cause we ain't played Cowboys and Muslims yet."
Chavez needs to put a sock in it
Spellcheck alert, too...
It is time to take this bozo out and annex Venezuela.
Can't we just get rid of this little cucaracha?
