"There’s a glut of money there from oil. Money talks in a lot of parts of the world. It buys things, influence."

All the more reason to BOYCOTT CITGO.

What we need to do internally, is establish a red line that he must not cross, or else it kicks into action a plan. Once the red line is crossed, NO extentions and dilly dallying.

With North Korea, we threatened four years ago that they were not to cross the red line...well, they did, and we still have not taken military action to take out their nukes as was theorized if the red line was crossed. This emboldens our enemies.

If gas were 10 cents cheaper at Citgo than everyone else, would you still boycott Citgo?

I agree that our enemies seem emboldened right now, but I fear there is a more sinister reason why it is happening right now....

I thought you might be interested in reading this:

http://www.cajpe.org.pe/mat_bol/Docs/toro2002.pdf

found it on a Venezuelan opposition(to Chavez) blog. An interesting account of the first coup against Chavez.

IF there was a Citgo in my area, yes I would.

Small price to pay.

I hope someone points it out to him!

Just as long as he doesn't go on an anti-Citgo rant while being sponsered by him, I know some people don't care much for him, but that's the sort of thing I'd expect from Olberman more than anyone else - imo.

A better idea would be for the United States government to nationalize all Venezuelan assets that are here in America.

"It can be done. We froze assets of Al queida after 9/11."

I was just laughing at your choice of words:.."nationalize", not laughing at the idea. Chavez and all of his crony marxists 'nationalized' everything in Venezuela, so the word was a perfect addition to the sentence....lol.

I don't pay for television (and I'm much happier for it), so I ask you - have you noticed since then (your post on the 21st) if he's addressed that little issue?
