The biggest hypocrite of all is that bucktoothed granola goober Joe.
What's up with this?!
Even the Boston Globe did an investigation about Joe Kennedy's little "charity" several years ago. Surprisingly, the Globe published it during the scandal involving the late, unlamented Michael Kennedy and the babysitter. Michael was raking in $$$ - the high six figures - from this enterprise.
Let him discount his oil. It will only lower prices for everyone. Of course, that screws his own people.
I wondered about the possible connection when I first heard it. I urge all FReepers to boycott Chevron Texaco gas stations.
Ugh, Oh!.. the swimmer is swimming money.. this hypocrisy could get out..
"WHO IS" the offshore account paying for this and hiding the money from TAXES.?.....
How do you really feel about it? LOL!
Hey, did Robert Kennedy mention his family's oil holdings during the global warming special on Fox last week? He didn't? Gee, guess he just forgot.
Blood Oil!
"Is buying heating oil from venezuela against the law?"
No, but most of us here do not appreciate profits going into the pocket of an idiot dictator. So perhaps you could take your own advice.
um.. oil is a commodity.
The more oil we can buy below the standard price, the better.
He'd just sell the same oil elsewhere at a higher price.
True, but Chavez is using it to gain support for his dictatorship. It is a bribe.
WHatever. It's not like Chavez is going to have trouble selling that oil. Might as well bring it in cheap, take advantage of him.
First off, Joe isn't buying anything with his own money, the whole scam is part of the low-income gov. heat assistance program. Bill written by old Ted the LARD. He(JOE) gets over $650,000.00 a year to manage tax dollars???That's why he left congress, when the babysitter molester kiss a tree at high speed. Maybe you should read up on the subject.
Hugo Chavez owns Citgo. How does boycotting Chevron Texaco help?
You are correct. Apologies.
LAURENT MURAWIEC, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute and author of Princes of Darkness: The Saudi Assault on the West, explores why Saudi Arabia is a dangerous enemy to the western world.
The author was interviewed on the Rodgers and Morgan KSFO show.
He sounded very convincing to me when Lee Rodgers asked him to talk about the Saudi cash flowing to Carter, Bush 41 (The Carlyle Group connection), and Clinton. Bush 43 appears to be clean.
Yes, I know the left screams about ex-President Bush. But the author nails Carter and Clinton.
Remember former FBI director Freeh's account of Clinton "understanding" why the Saudis could not let the FBI investigate the Colbalt Towers bombing in their kingdom -- but the Saudis were then asked to contribute to the Clinton Lie-bury?
Oh, for cripes sakes. How many of these damn Kennedy's are still around?
If Chavez wants to give away oil, fine. Let's follow the money trail and also make darn sure not a penny of heating oil assistance goes to these folks.
