Wanna scare ‘mericans into voting McCain? Easy. Create a new brown menace to go with Ahmadinejad. As we saw in the debate last week, all it takes is saying Ahmadinejad, Castro, Chavez in one breath.

“In Venezuela we are interested in development of nuclear energy, of course for peaceful purposes, for medical purposes, for purposes of electricity generation,” Chavez said at a political rally.

“Brazil has various nuclear reactors, so does Argentina. We will have ours.”

Chavez noted that Venezuela, which is a member of the oil-producing cartel OPEC, developed a nuclear reactor decades ago but abandoned it under pressure from the United States.

He said Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had offered help with a reactor, adding that “we already have a commission working on this issue.”

I can’t be the only one expecting an invasion of Venezuela, can I?
