Chavez called Obama a clown

Hugo Chavez has died.  But it was interesting to hear that in 2011 he described Obama as a "clown" and an "embarrassment." That was news to me.  I thought they had a great relationship.
Here are the quotes from Chavez:
"Mr Obama decided to attack us," he said. "Now you want to win votes by attacking Venezuela. Don't be irresponsible. You are a clown, a clown. Leave us in peace … Go after your votes by fulfilling that which you promised your people."
"Focus on governing your country, which you've turned into a disaster," 
One blogger wrote:
"Ya gotta give Chavez credit for knowing a clown when he saw one, and for calling a clown a clown. Trouble is, though some may call him Obozo, this clown isn't the kind who makes us laugh."
