I was mad at Chavez for suggesting that the United Nations move out of town.

Why? I think he had some pretty good arguments...

The U.N. is great for New York, no matter how bad New York's host country may be for the U.N.

Sure, and I don't think Chavez was talking about NYC. But still, the fact is that the U.N. headquarters is in a country that waged war against the will of the U.N., tried to discredit it any occasion it got and send John Bolton as its representative there.

I also agree that maybe the U.N. would be more reminded of its task if it was in a poorer country...
