Hugo Chavez is making noise that he’s preparing for a military conflict with the U.S. Tiny ‘tator Hugo has trouble being that threatening so he hangs out with places like Iran so he’ll seem scarier. It’s like if the Riddler hung out with Lex Luthor and Dr. Doom so people might think he’s some sort of international threat.
Anyway, just in case a conflict breaks out, we should learn what we can about Venezuela. Here’s what I know:
* Venezuela is in South America. That means it’s to the south of us. If you take out a compass, whichever way the needle points, Venezuela is in the opposite direction.
* Venezuela is spelled with a ‘V’, and is the only country whose name starts with a ‘V’… that I can think of. Oh, wait, Vietnam. Venezuela is one of only two countries which name starts with a ‘V’. The letter ‘V’ is the Roman numeral for five and this Roman numeral is closely related to the least memorable of the Rocky movies.
* Apparently there is oil in Venezuela, or, at least, under its ground.
I guess that’s all I know about Venezuela off hand. Hope that helps.

Very Informative.
Are the Boy Scouts busy next weekend?
Why does that guy remind me of the crazy little liberal monkey? Well, at least he’s slightly scarier than Aquaman.
Vatican city iis also a country that starts with the letter v.
Venezuela is one of two countries (I know of) that start with V. It is the only country that starts with V that we have not yet heavily bombed.
Vanuatu is also a country whose name starts with a V. It’s even a member of the UN, which the Vatican, setting an example for the United States, isn’t, as far as I can tell.
Another important piece of information is that Daniel Defoe’s novel Robinson Crusoe is set on an island off the coast of Venezuela. Oh, and Luis Aparicio, the great shortstop, is from Venezuela.
What is it with Venezuela and mental health? Not to paint with a broad brush or anything, but Chavez, Ozzie Guillen, Carlos Zambrano, Ugueth Urbina … if it weren’t for Freddy Garcia, the baseball whack factor alone would cause a div-by-zero and crash Google or something.
Mark my words, this little prick is gonna be a helluva lot more trouble than Nicaragua ever was, and they had the backing of the Soviet Union.
Don’t forget: WHEN YOU RIDE WITH CITGO, YOU RIDE WITH HUGO!
Funny, I see a striking resemblance between ‘Ugo Chavez and the “Islamic Rage Boy” on the right banner.
Coincidence? I think not; more like Conspiracy!
The reason that Hugo Chavez keeps mouthing off is that he is (rightly) afraid that otherwise everyone will forget about his insignificant ass.
Omar Vizquel is the best. shortstop. evar. Venezuelan or otherwise.
I don’t think Venezuelans will tolerate Chavez’s antics much longer. He’s crazy like Kim Jong Il and Ahmadinaj… Ahmadnahi…Ahmadinotgonnaworkheremuchlonger, but doesn’t know where to draw the line to keep the citizens happy/uninformed.
Did I mention that Omar rules?
Can I volunteer Cindy Sheehan as a hostage?
Please!?!?
Matty G… I believe you have my stapler.
Let’s just airdrop some of our prison population on Chavez’ estate. That’d be enough.
Venezuela is theworld’s leading exporter of crazy dictator rhetoric. Previously, North Korea ld the category, but recently, Kim Jong Il has been surprisingly quiet.
The scary thing is that he’s probably collecting arms not to “fight imperial agression” but to keep himself in power and put down any popular movement to kick him out of office. The linked article also implies that he may be spewing all this crap to keep people’s minds off the violence and/or attempt to cut down on it by providing the population a common enemy to fear and rail against.
He’s just compensating.
