A Zippo lighter is all it would take to fix this problem...

Ah, Chavez, the wannabe crusader, the hero in his own mind, the terrorist-Marxist dictator. If you bought him for what he’s worth and sold him for what he thinks he’s worth, you’d make a million dollars.

This Latina chick would love to kick his ass.

The companies should just destroy their equipment and shut them down.

They should also do the same thing to their operations over here[ the U.S.]when the Democrats impose an “excessive profits” tax.

Is anyone from Evil Big Oil reading this?! You guys are such a disappointment! This two bit dictator steals from you and yet you let him live? What’s up with that? If you don't make an example out of this thug, EVERY two bit dictator will be stealing from you next. Is that what you want?

[YOUGOTIT]

Is this not what Hillery said or words to that effect?

[RobFromGa]

Hope this turns out like d’Anconia’s copper mines.

Interesting that he’s doing this on May Day.

Chavez has decreed that Petroleos de Venezuela SA, or PDVSA, will take a minimum 60 percent stake in four heavy-oil projects in the Orinoco River region and invited the six private companies operating there to stay on as minority partners.

TRANSLATION:
Western companies provide all the technology, organization and engineering and Venezuela provides all the corruption and stupidity

And the Chavez machine gets 60% of the profit for providing some low level labor

What countries are Exxon and Chevron based in?

[mmichaels1970]

BP PLC, Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., ConocoPhillips, France's Total SA and Norway's Statoil ASA ....are looking to make a deal....sort of like the U.N. I guess.

Funny how Atlas Shrugged remains so relevant today. Light it on fire, put a sign on the gate that says "it's all yours". Don't these oil companies have the profits and capital to make a stand?

[Cymbaline]

Where are Ellis Wyatt or Francisco D’Anconia when you need them?

[Candor7]

BP PLC, Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., ConocoPhillips, France's Total SA and Norway's Statoil ASA should blow their well heads so that the bore holes collapse, and head North until Chavez is defeated or assassinated.

[rbosque]

Just like his hero, Fidel.

Carl Marx and the Democrats would be so proud!!!

[PsyOp]

Torch ‘em and leave. Let Chavez figure how to put the fires out.

That or drop the 82d in to defend them.

Bowing to this thug should not be an option.

Venezuela's Communist dictator is going to seize private business' assets at the point of a gun. That's the true meaning of Communism: confiscation at the point of a gun.
