CITGO supports Hugo Chavez

Every dollar you spend at the CITGO station helps support Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, because Venezuela owns CITGO 100 % :

Ha, Henry. I NEVER fill up there since hearing that. Chavez is is a nut case. He made a statement a couple days ago that Fidel Castro was on the mend, getting well and "almost jogging". The last photograph I saw of Fidel was in a hospital bed. He had the gaunt wasting look of a dying person. If he IS jogging, he's jogging to the GRAVEYARD.

Henry you are dead on!

Chavez is a dangerous man. After seeing a Joe Kennedy commercial touting Citgo as our friend I couldn't sit back.

We now have 2 anti-chavez tshirts for those who feel the same way.

Thats right. No citgo.

Henry,

You have two fans.

Chavez Proposes Changes to Constitution

Updated 9:09 PM ET August 15, 2007

By CHRISTOPHER TOOTHAKER
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - President Hugo Chavez presented his proposal Wednesday for constitutional reforms that are expected to allow him to be re-elected indefinitely.

Chavez, speaking to the National Assembly, said the changes affect "less than 10 percent" of the constitution but would bring Venezuela "new horizons for the new era."

Chavez, who is seeking to transform Venezuelan society along socialist lines, waved to a crowd of cheering supporters as he walked into the legislature with fireworks exploding overhead.

Chavez's political allies firmly control the National Assembly, which is expected to approve the plan within months. It then would have to be approved by citizens in a national referendum.

Henry. Never a more opportune time for Chavez to do it. We are bogged down in Iraq, and now Israel has bombed a nuclear weapons target in Syria. Oil reached 83 dollars a barrel today. Global warming may be a good thing, we shall not be able to heat our houses. Russia has claimed the Arctic sea and its probable oil and gas reserves. America is sliding down a fast, slippery and unknown path. The tree in Jena La. has been cut down so NOBODY can rest beneath it. That is NOT an answer. What will we DO? What CAN we do. Are we along for the RIDE?

John:

Actually, I’m not real worried about Chavez. The poor peasants who are keeping him in office will do him in once the money runs out. By “nationalizing” Citgo he stole all their assets, and spread it around the country so the peasants thought he was some kind of saviour. If we Americans would just drive on by his Citgo stations, that would hasten his demise.

We need to go nuclear for our power. Right now, about 20% of our electrical power is from nuclear generators. France is about 70%. The Chinese are going nuclear with a modern reactor design which is runaway-proof. We invented the design, but have yet to use it. Even the Japanese are going nuclear, as is India. The rest of the world has “done the numbers”, but our politicians have discovered nuclear is a good football to use to keep us stirred up, off-balance, and divided. As long as we stupidly fall for their crap, we will stay on that slippery slope.

Henry, I think due to instability and poverty in certain Latin American countries, people in those areas are looking for some type of change. He casts his message to that part of the world. That part of the world also has ears.

Well, ol’ Hugo is buying himself some Russian fighter aircraft. Don’t tell him, but in some recent war games one US Raptor, driven by a previously untried pilot, simultaneously took out four Russian equivalent fighters from over the horizon. One shot, four kills.

This jackass meets another jackass of which both of them fashion themselves handsomely after another jackass...and what do you get?

More jackassessssssssses...too many asssssses I guessssssses!!

Its exactly what this 8000 mile diameter world needs. More assholes who think they are jackasses and how to make more like themselves!

We sure got a lot of maggots on this world, don't we folks?

Don't buy anything from these maggot jackass twits.

They have absolutely 'NO BUSINESS' in worldly endeavors of progress whatsoever, let alone think they can honor your presence by representing 'YOU' the voter![tic-them, the voters] These ASSHOLES make me laugh. Who died and made them king-shit of their shit- palaces, anyway?

...as Klatu stated to the representative of the 'President of the USA' whilst in Walter Reed Hospital for shot wounds upon landing on Earth, "I'm not interested in your petty disputes or wars amongst yourselves".

Shoot all these asshole bastards, America...NO ONE NEEDS THEM or their progeny alive!

Mr.Lee Bollinger>>>right-on buddy, you are my hero.

Dx, I agree with your assessment of Chavez, Ahmadinejad, and their ilk.

They really should not be allowed to draw even one more breath on this Earth.

The trouble is that Americans are so freedom-loving that we don’t want to assert our will on another people. I realize that this is not the view that most non-Americans hold of us Americans, but it is the simple truth.

So we always wait until creeps like these have lived FAR too long. We always wait until their insanity threatens to spill over into our own vital national interest, before we even begin to consider taking hostile actions against another sovereign nation.

I am more American than you think. I am from the great Boarder cities of Windsor-Detroit.

My school friends and social life were in Detroit. My early education and books and buying power were from America, right downtown Detroit on the great Woodward Avenue. Its all I knew, until I moved to 'upper Canada' in the 70's.

That's when the floorboards fell out. People up here did not know what I was talking about or where my ideas were coming from...they are very politically correct and socially say so up here, they take pride as social-nannies to each other, protecting themselves from each other and the outside world so much so that they are as docile as cows in a field.

But its changing as population is crowding the little original empires to expand their views and acceptance of 'other' things.

The air is extremely good, the water and lakes are perfect [one can catch and eat the fish], the job market is OK too, as the Fed. has the Head seat here...and I have worked in the Fed, the Province, the Regional city and the City as a Designer in Architecture etc...

Sometimes its hard for me to believe that these folks accept these assholes I talked about in 10. They don't like it when I express myself as such, but I am glad you did.

So Henry, there you have it in a nutshell!

for Henry>>>

I the very first text I ever memorized as a kid in the 50's>>>>

'Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. ".

Hey, Dx, do the Canadians realize yet that we have them SURROUNDED? As a child, I always thought that sometime soon the Canadians would have a referendum, and vote to join the United States as several new States.

Now we’ve got Mexico moving into the US. They need a referendum too. That would stop all our “fence” talk.

Practicalities

1) Flag

New Flag would have, say, four or five new BLUE STARS added, on the TOP of the present 51 white stars, to welcome our new states.

2) Political folding-in

Ten years before much happens politically, allowing time for current Canadian office-holders terms to more or less expire. Even thereafter, only the names on the doors would change, as a practical matter. Canadian political Houses would remain, like our State houses. Might even have to elect some Governors for some of the various new States. Current border guards would fold into our FBI/Homeland Security.

3) Currency

All Canadian currencies would enter on par with US dollars. That would probably give every Canadian pocketbook a one-time boost. I bet land values would skyrocket, too.

4) Capital punishment

Each State would decide for itself, just like the current States in the USA.

I am a great advocate of the Can/Am union, always wanted it in my life. There is even a restaurant in Windsor called the Canusa. Detroit has a similar one, too. With 1 language, 1 way to pay for things for a 'buck' and 1 set of weights and measures would make everything a lot easier to live in. Quebec can join France for all we care, that would be an international feat all by itself! They can't make up their damned minds, remain Canadians or separate.

The new union would certainly help all of us as North Americans, from 1 end of this beautiful continent to the other...what a piece of work that would be, and no modern warfare fought to bring it about. That's the ticket...no war.

I often wished the American Indians beat the shit out of the Englishman Wolf in New York, Canada would have been American at that time.

Well, I guess you can't always get what you
want.

see this little map of our ancestors situation in 1620 and the Proclamation Line of 1763 separating the beautiful Indian people and the European invaders! Did you study this in school, Henry? I got to know.

This stuff is a lot older than America's birth, but it sure brought it around as such. And this is why I never liked the division of the whole continent [the map shows it all]. The right people did not die in these beginnings.

Did you study this in school, Henry? I got to know.

Nope. We were pretty much taught that the world started around 1776. The Tories fled North because they loved the King, and feared the rabble. Then the dirty Indians killed poor Custer, but we sorted THAT out and invented California. Discovered Hollywood out there, too.

If Canadians want to join US (as in U.S.) all they gotta do is VOTE. They won’t let us join Canada: we fought a war over that whole “succession” thing. That Lincoln guy you mentioned…

dx, more on that whole secession issue

The American Civil War (1861–1865) was a major war between the United States (the "Union") and eleven Southern slave states which declared that they had a right to secession
