Chavez at it again!

The Napoleon of the South is at it again. Hugo Chavez somehow found its way on the anti-Bush ABC network this week claiming the US is planning to invade his country with aircraft carriers and planes. He did it on Nightline and Ted Koppel was more than happy to let him do it.
Apparently, an R&R assignment to Curacao led the paranoid Chavez to claim the US was poised to attack his country. He claims the US would be in for "a 100 year war" if that happened.
First, if the US attacked they would route the Venezuelan armed forces in less time than it took to drive tom Kuwait to Baghdad. Second, why does Chavez think his country is so attractive? It has oil, yes, but he like every other dictator has to rule his people by fear. The fear of one enemy. The less educated in Venezuela probably believe him. The Cubans, Chavez's greatest ally, surely do.
Chavez is in NYC for the UN summit of world leaders. He told the UN they should move its headquarters out of the US. That is one thing I agree with Chavez on. I think we should also remove our subsidy of the organization until all of the corruption is gone.
My last question is why ABC would put this yahoo on the air. ABC has gone to hell in a handbasket since Peter Jenning's death.
