Hugo Chavez the "Caracas crackpot"
OK Maybe you've heard or not. Hugo Chavez has said some nasty things about President Bush, the US, etc.

NEW YORK --Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said he stands behind his description of U.S. President George W. Bush as "the devil." But his charged comments, coming near U.S. legislative elections, also have drawn condemnation from some Bush critics.
The New York City tabloids were more aggressive, with The New York Daily News page 1 headline Friday telling Chavez to "ZIP IT!" and the New York Post calling him a "jerk" and the "Caracas crackpot."
There were also signs that efforts by Chavez to reach out to the American people by boosting sales of discounted heating oil to the poor could face some new obstacles.
Maine's Democratic Gov. John Baldacci, who approved an agreement last winter to buy discounted oil, said Thursday he had no plans to seek a similar arrangement this winter, and called Chavez's words "unnecessary and offensive."
Representative Chaka Fattah of Philadelphia also accepted Chavez oil.
Democratic Sen. Christopher Dodd, whose home state of Connecticut has also participated in the program, called Chavez's comments "destructive to the United Nations as an institution" and said Chavez should face a rebuke.
Chavez should be rebuked? The politicians that support him by taking his cheap oil should be removed from office or better yet, charged with giving "aid and comfort" to a supporter of terrorism. Here's an idea. BOYCOTT CITGO! It is the national Venezuelan oil company. It's not difficult. Do what I did. Cut up the damn card, send it back. If you live in one of the neo-treason politician's voting districts, express your dissatisfaction in a letter, the, this fall, vote them out.
we need to start somewhere.
