"Why don't you shut up?" - A new ringtone??

Guess what? The recent undiplomatic insult meted out to the Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez by the king of Spain Juan Carlos featuring the words "why don't you shut up?" has become the most sought after ringtone download in Spain and in some sections of Venezuela. An estimated 2 million USD has been generated by the download!
At the recent Ibero-Americal summit in Chile, the Venezuelan president repeatedly called the Spanish king a fascist due to the spanish king's support of the policies of George Bush and went on to mention that a fascist is not human and a snake is more human than a fascist. The Spanish Prime Minister began to explain to Mr. Chavez that the king of Spain is a democratically elected leader of state but Chavez went on interrupting which prompted the King to lean over and ask chavez "why don't you shut up?"
