CARACAS, Venezuela - President Hugo Chavez said Sunday he is putting relations with Colombia "in the freezer" after its president ended the Venezuelan leader's role mediating with leftist rebels in the neighboring country.

The announcement drew a strong rebuke from Colombian President Alvaro Uribe, who said Chavez's actions suggest he wants to see a "terrorist government" run by leftist rebels in Bogota.

Send more support to Uribe.

I have been canvasing for it for a while now.

Columbia is one of our few friends in SA.

Communism is on the march down there

Gadzooks! You'd think Hugo... was musing, "We have not had a good Venezuelan-Columbian War in such a long time!"

Chavez has made it clear to all that will listen that he plans on taking Colombia into his new empire.

I look for them to go to war just as soon as a Democrat takes office.

Chavez knows full well the Democrats are mostly cowards who will not militarily defend Americas friends or even it’s own economical interest.

Chavez is a communist and he is banking on Hillary getting elected so that he will have a friend in the White House.
