This report contains statements critical of President Hugo Chávez, a criminal offense punishable by fine and imprisonment there. The Law on the Social Responsibility of Radio and Television went into effect in Venezuela in November 2004, followed by amendments to Venezuelas Criminal Code that went into force in March 2005. These measures make it a criminal offense to insult or show disrespect for the president and other government authorities. I wonder, is it the implementation of Putin's politics in Latin America, or Russian Federation is now such a backwater, that they need to follow the Marxist thugs of the jungle?

The dictator's sudden kind heart for the US poor in the form of providing cheap oil reminds me that the old race hustler, Jesse the socialist Jackson was over there plotting with Chavez recently. His trip was for the purpose of improving Chavez's image in the US. Jesse is part of Castro's movement and he's hoping to harness the voting power of Blacks and South Americans to enact his nightmare for the US.

Im almost tempted to head on down to the Venezuelan borders with a big Van sporting the words "Chavez is a Penjebo" about 10 yards from the border.

This is so discouraging, especially when we are experiencing just how hard it is to undo 30 years of Sadam. This guy is turning into a garden variety tin horn dictator before our eyes.
I think this whole LIHEAP needs careful investigation. It looks to me as if it subsidizes the Kennedys and their oil companies. Joseph P. Kennedy II, chairman and president of Citizens Energy Corp is a real scary dude. But also, it probably doesn't make sense to keep buying oil year after year without looking for efficiencies and alternatives.

This doesn't look like news or activism.

Well, looks like x5452 should replace the Admin, as he keeps teaching everyone around where certain threads can be posted or not.

The pictures with Hugo (Castro Jr. & company (another American leftist traitor) plus the excessively alarming comments in the thread's article need to wake people to the fact Communist Cuba is not the only threat on our Southern flank, but Citgo is playing along for the petrol-mega-profits.
