Chavez Touts Cheap Heat In HarlemSeptember 21, 2006
NEW YORK -- After reports that he left the U.S. and one day after he called President George W. Bush the devil, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez spoke about a heating oil initiative in Harlem.Chavez was in Harlem to inaugurate the CITGO-Venezuela Heating Oil Program.
During a visit to New York City in September 2005, Chavez made a pledge to help low-income Americans fight the increasing costs of home heating oil.
Over the past winter, the Venezuelan government, through its U.S.-based oil company CITGO, provided more than 40 million gallons of reduced price heating oil for low-income families in the United States.

ROTFLMAO
This jerkov is self-imploding right before our eyes!
Boycott Citgo! If you need an incentive, the moonbats at DU brag about how they buy gas at Citgo. It figures. The moonbats support Islamic terrorism, and they support tinhorn Venezuelan dictators.
Carlo ~ Bump!
Just as we all know, Ted Turner gave his 1 billion dollar donation to the U N(after his Time Warner stock hit the skids : )
And Clinton with his ghostly 100,000 extra cops....
LOL!
I recall reading the oil that was shipped is low grade junk that municipalities turned down.
Is it just me, or is there something illegal about a foreign government using oil to influence American politics? Maybe this warrants an investigation.
Does squeezing the oil from the zits on his face count?
That might be difficult. President CITGO's target audience is always pitching fits at President Bush no matter what time of the year it is.
No one in Harlem lives in a house or has a "home heating bill". Chavez is supposedly, what, granting free oil to heat the projects? You're right. Enquiring minds want details!
Chavez is selling home heating oil at a 40% discount. Randell questioned why oil companies in this country didn't do the same. All politics and the left is just sucking this sh*t up.
Hey, Hugo. Take care of your own people first. Then you can worry about ours.
That is exactly my point.. How many poor folks anywhere in Manhattan own a self standing home??? If they do, they are far from poor! Since you stated this as if it was a fact.. PROVE IT WNBC!!!!!
this is how life works.
suppose Hugo sells heating oil to a 'charity'
for 50 cents off.
the 'charity' has to pay 40 cents to Hugo's foriegn bank account.
the 'charity operators sell the oil,
and pocket the difference
the 'charity' operators pay some poor looking person
50 bucks to say something to a TV station
EXACTLY.
Did anyone see the little Commie Chick on FOX Dayside saying how wonderful Chevas was and how their ecomony was on the rise, yada, yada, yada. How there were no poor and he won 100% of the vote. I also remember when Sadam won 100% of Iraq's vote and 100% of the people voted. I told my husband at the time it would be wonderful if we had 100% of our citizens vote in an election.
Juliette asked the commie babe when she visited last?????
She was sickening.
NY1 in New York actually said earlier today that although he claimed he donated 40 million gallons, that less than 5 million had ever been sent.
BINGO!!!
I understand that the oil he proposed to send was unfit for use in our supply channels and SO low grade it was refused by municipalities.. I don't believe he sent anything, but not one single media type will confront this a$$hole!
I think even used 2 stroke lawn mower oil will burn in your furnace.
I think if this asshat wants to send us below market cost oil, great. I say bring it on.
I say pull up the tanker and fill it with below market Super Premium.
