But we seem to have no problem buying oil from Saudi Arabia, which has had far more to do with funding and sponsoring terrorism than Venezuela. I have yet to see anything conclusive about Chavez other than he has clamped down on some members of the opposition in his own country. I fail to see how he is much of a threat to the US.
Not to mention, there is a Citgo station AT THE PENTAGON! It sells Biodiesel! My head hurts. Mike Aramco is a foreign government-owned company, are your local governments allowed to buy fuel? Anyway, whatever, the news report says: > >But two months later, despite claims of a looming budget crisis, the > >CTA president "has no intent or plan to accept the offer," according > >to CTA spokesperson Ibis Antongiorgi. She gave no explanation. If your explanation had any chance of standing up I don't doubt she'd have used it, but she didn't. People like Weisbrot would surely know it too. I think you're just grabbing for an excuse. IMHO, considering the current context in the US of oil interests, corruption and interfering with foreign governments (and even your own), your arguments seem somewhat bizarre. In the context of the poor too, especially after some of Hurricane Katrina's revelations. But you blamed the victims at the time, didn't you? Nobody's said the S-word yet (aarghh), LOL!
