1. Maybe I got the order wrong here...
...but I believe Chavez's announcement came after Robertson's screed.

It's more like, Chavez had this plan in his back pocket and was just waiting until he got into the headline news, for any reason. Robertson gave him that opportunity, and he used it to lay down the biggest pimp-slap the BFEE has ever taken from a foreign leader.

Just wait, this will be big. Chavez just pitched a world-record speed screwball at the administration and big oil.

Make sure it hits the rumor mill everywhere you go.

2. Because Chavez is threatening an embargo in a deal with Iran
And because they have formed oil contracts with China.

3. No, it's not because Chavez offered oil to the American poor
after the SOB criminal made his criminal intentions "public" by violating one US law.

Who knows. If President Gore (or President Kerry) would be in office (and not on vacation...), the poor might already got a friendly deal...

But the Robber Barons had other plans... :mad:

4. When I was in Venezuela the gas was cheap and everybody had
a car. What is wrong with that? Doesn't Ford, GM & Chrysler talk to the oil companies? Or is Venezuela going Asia with the cars..(like the USA has for twenty years).

6. Robertson's call for assassination is a terroristic threat.
It is prosecutable.

8. Seems like it...


Would think that a professed Christian like himself should want to reread his bible about what Jesus says one should do for the poor... He seems like he needs to learn how to practice his Christian faith from someone like Chavez!

7. Of Course, big oil biz doesn't like that, labor day weekend coming
Over 34 million US. travelers using cars, can you fathom at $3.00 per gallon (by then) how much xtra cash that amounts too, the money brings too much power.
