Wink Apparently Venezuela is next

Did you know the US is planning to invade Venezuela?
From cnn.com:
Chavez: U.S. planning to invade Venezuela

Me thinks Chavez maybe a little off base here.

I do like his idea of moving the U.N. out of the U.S. then maybe we could do like the other countries and stop paying our dues and start complaining about the government of the new host country.

heck.. it's not just other countries or countries that don't pay dues, it's countries who don't even follow U.N. resolutions yet they find themselves on the "security council"....

He said U.S. soldiers recently went to Curacao, an island off Venezuela's northwest coast. He described as a "lie" the official U.S. explanation that they visited Curacao for rest and recreation.

"They were doing movements. They were doing maneuvers," Chavez said, speaking through a translator.

Apparently, he is unfamiliar with the difference between soldiers "On maneuvers" and enlisted personnel trying to "Put the Move" on the local senoritas.
although both require careful planning and precise execution

And sometimes a few cervezas can really help in the invasion. Or atleast make the potential target look more appealing.

Did anyone else happen to notice that while the whole hurricane mess was moving through, Jesse Jackson was in Venezuela stirring up who knows what (probably giving Chavez false documents.....) If that you know what was up to something like that...... well, nevermind what I think about it.....

Funny, seems like the other units getting trained when I went through jungle school in Panama were from Venezuela? Maybe we're still training them, his left hand just doesn't know (or agree with) what the right is doing? Cervesa definitely helps increase the targets of opportunity.

Yep, the incidents of "friendly fire" go up as the amount of cervesa consumed does

Well, you know how much invading oil rich countries helps with the fuel prices.

As Jon Stewart once said,
"We gave you freedom,...... now WHERE'S OUR CHEAP GAS?"

Whats with this guy anyway? Maybe we should take Robertsons advice.........
