undiplomatic news you might have missed

"...Chávez last night ordered the US ambassador to leave Venezuela within 72 hours and accused Washington of fomenting a coup attempt..."

Grauniad has more

"...Chávez also ordered Venezuela's ambassador to Washington to return home and threatened to cut oil supplies, plunging relations between the countries to a new low. "Go to hell a hundred times, fucking Yankees," he told a televised rally thronged with supporters clad in red."

Heh, that crazy Chavez dude, what a wild man.
Clearly not related to the first of two Bear Reconnaissance/Bomber aircraft coming to visit from Russia

Coincidentally Bolivia also expelled the US ambassdor the day before, and the US in turn expelled the Bolivian ambassador.

There's only about 4 and 1/2 months left, who else can they really piss off?
