I can't believe what I am seeing in our country. We are literally losing our minds here. Not me but my nation. It's like watching Star Wars Episode I all over again. The President is getting a vote of no confidence? People think a party that has done nothing in light of this nations security can be trusted more? People are more concerned about Port Security than Border Security? The United States is about to have the second largest civilian reserves in the America's? This goes unnoticed while Republicans turn their back on their President over an issue they think is going to cost them an election, even though their opposition is in equal disarray?

Come on people, where are your heads at? Since when have Democrats been concerned about national security? Why have they given anybody a reason to believe that they would be better at National Security than the Republicans?

Port Security? Are you kidding me? It's much easier for Al Qaida to come up through Mexico than it is for them to board a ship and attack us that way. And since when did we sell the United States Coast Guard to Ports World? Last time I checked, the United States Coast Guard is our line of defense concerning ports.

And while people are panicking over port security or how it's going to effect the elections, Hugo Chavez, the hostile dictator of Venezuela, is preparing for war against the United States.

Venezuela begins training a vast army of civilian reserves today to fight off the attack its Left-wing president, Hugo Chavez, says the United States is plotting against it.

The oil-rich state aims to teach up to two million volunteers, from the unemployed to office workers, shop assistants and housewives, basic military skills such as marching in step or shooting to kill.

If it reaches that size, the force will be the largest civilian reserve army in the Americas, double the size of Washington's reserves. Its creation will further inflame relations between Venezuela and the US, already characterised by insults and tit-for-tat expulsions of diplomats.

Here we are as a nation at war, the Democrats do nothing but complain, criticize other people's patriotism, and then demand that people don't question their patriotism. They've undermined everything we have tried to do in order to win the war on terrorism and one is left with no choice but to question their patriotism.

The Republicans are cowaring into their corners, scared to stand up because they refused to stand up for the President when he is right because they are too busy trying to save their own necks. There is a great enemy arising, but instead of paying attention to that, we worry about port security?

Hello, is anybody listening? Our port security is fine. We haven't had an attack inside our borders since 9-11. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! All the while everybody is screaming like little girls that our ports are dangerous, yet the whole time our borders are porous, and despite that, there has been no attack. Well somebody please explain why we need more security? We have victory in our hands and now we want to rewrite the recipe. We are going to dismantle ourselves until we force our own defeat.

Hugo Chavez is not a peace activist, this is not about "defending his country" against the United States, it's about control. Brazil, Cuba, and Venezuela are united and soon other countries will be part of the dictatorship. War Latin America is coming unless we wake up.

It's a war that Hugo Chavez wanted since 1998, before Bush was ever elected into office. He's going to be a headache for the next President, whether Republican or Democrat. Hugo Chavez is our enemy, wake up people.

Bush isn't the war monger, people like Hugo Chavez are. Someday, people are going to wonder why somebody didn't assassinate Hugo Chavez, but by then Pat Robertson will be long gone.

It's agonizing to watch my nation lead itself down the wrong path.
