Before I start this article, I would like to point out that I have intentionally steered clear of the election fiasco as of late, something I am sure has not escaped the attention of my readers. I have done this because our party’s decision has been made, and there is nothing that I could say about the two Democrats that would be nearly as damaging as what they are saying about each other.

I may enter the fray on occasion, but for now, I am waiting until the general elections to start firing my guns. Having said that, I will get on with the task at hand.

It seems that President Chavez, the Venezuelan dictator, is trying to stir up more trouble down in his neck of the woods. The dictator, it seems, has proposed founding what he calls “SATO” (South Atlantic Treaty Organization). On Sunday, according to FoxNews.com, the president said, “’I once said that if NATO exists — the North Atlantic Treaty Organization — why couldn't SATO exist? The South Atlantic Treaty Organization?’”

President/dictator Chavez first proposed this “SATO” back in 1999 when he began his official role as president, but the idea was quickly met with regional opposition.

Pres./dictator Chavez announced that he would make the proposal to the Brazillian Defense Minister, Nelson Jobim, when he visit’s the Venezuelan capital Monday. This comes as a surprise to yours truly, as Brazil and the United States have had a fairly good relationship as of late.

In fact, the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars quotes the former Brazilian Ambassador to the United States in 2004 as saying, “Not a single action taken or decision made by the United States in the last three years has negatively affected Brazilian interests….”

So, why would Chavez start with Brazil? That really is a puzzler considering that he has countries like Cuba and Suriname (who?) to consider. From what I’ve read, the U.S. and Brazil, as I have pointed out, have a pretty healthy relationship. I wouldn’t think they would want to risk having us as an ally by partnering with one of our most disliked dictators. And if they go along with this idea, they are fools.

I honestly do not think this is going anywhere. I think that Chavez has a grand plan that he would like to put into place which would leave him in control of this so-called SATO. He said that the defense council (SATO) would , according to Yahoo news, “design our own defense policies.” He failed to mention that he would be the chief architect in this “design team.”

But the question remains, why would these countries, outside of the ones already on the wrong end of America’s generosity, want to ostracize themselves from the good will of the United States of America?

While, as I said, I think this plan is going nowhere, I thought you should know what the rest of the world is up to while the MSM tells you about Hillary dodging sniper fire and Barack Hussein Obama talking about his kids being “punished” with having a baby. What a couple of idiots those two are.

By the way, for those who didn’t know, Citgo gas is owned, lock, stock and barrel, by Venezuela’s Chavez. Therefore, you can do your part by not purchasing ANYTHING from Citgo gas stations.

Finally, don’t forget about my upcoming book, “Mr. Right Opinion-Unplugged and Unashamed.” It will be available soon at: http://www.51756.authorworld.com/.
