Remember learning about the Monroe Doctrine?

You know, America avoids foreign entanglements and focuses on securing peace and prosperity among the nations of this hemisphere?

While Obama focuses on Iraq and Afghanistan and Pakistan and Gaza, our hemisphere continues to fall apart (which will only increase illegal immigration from the region).
President Hugo Chavez severed Venezuela's diplomatic relations with Colombia on Thursday over claims he harbors guerrillas, and he warned that his neighbor's leader could attempt to provoke a war.

Chavez said he was forced to break off all relations because Colombian officials claim he has failed to act against leftist rebels who allegedly have taken shelter in Venezuelan territory.
