[SmileyRose]

someone very important to my husband sends stupidity like this into my mailbox at least once a week. I'm to where I just consider the source and ignore it. I just checked my Yahoo and This little nugget was been fowarded to me by no less than 9 people in the last 24 hrs. -- Seriously, I'm going to have to change my yahoo addy or something.

IN ORLANDO LAST WEEK, AT A CITGO STATION, REGULAR GAS WAS PRICED AT$1.82 PER GALLON, AND NO CUSTOMERS.


HOWEVER, ACROSS THE STREET FUEL WAS SELLING FOR $1.85 PER GALLON AND ALL PUMPS THERE HAD CARS WAITINGTO FUEL UP. What's going on? Word is getting around!!!!! Read on:

Have you noticed how the CITGO signs have disappeared in the past 7-8 months? A very clever move by Chavez. But guess what,"CITGO" IS CHANGING ITS NAME, too....
This is serious, Americans,...make sure you read this very carefully.

NEWS FLASH:
Chavez is NOW getting a Russian Weapons Factory built by Putin. The RUSSIANS are building an AK -47 Kalashnikov Assault Rifle factory inVenezuela , to give armament support to Communist Rebel groups throughout the Americas ...

Chavez NOW has IRANIANS operating his oil refineries in Venezuela for him. It is likely only a matter of time, if not already, before Chavez has Iranian built LONG RANGE missiles, with a variety of warhead types aimed at: Guess Who?

CITGO is NOW in the process of Changing Its Name to "PETRO EXPRESS" due to the loss of gasoline sales in the USA ...due to the recent publicity of ownership by Chavez of Venezuela.

Every dollar you spend with ''CITGO" or "PETRO EXPRESS" gasoline will be used against you, your basic human rights, and your freedoms. He will start wars here in the Americas that will probably be the death of millions..

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT because Chavez is starting to feel the loss of revenue from his holdings. HE OWNS "CITGO". This is a very important move that everyone should be aware of.

ANNOUNCED JUST RECENTLY: "CITGO", BEING AWARE THAT SALES ARE DOWN DUE TO U.S. CUSTOMERS NOT WANTING TO BUY FROM 'CITGO-CHAVEZ', HAVE STARTED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF SOME OF THEIR STORES TO: 'PETRO EXPRESS'. DONOT BUY FROM "PETRO EXPRESS" EITHER!!! 'PETRO EXPRESS' IS ALSO 100% OWNED BY "CHAVEZ."


KEEP THIS MEMO GOING SO THAT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING.
BOTTOM LINE,-- BOYCOTT "CITGO" & "PETRO EXPRESS" please!!

PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS IS PASSED ON TO EVERYONE IN YOUR E-MAIL LIST IN THE UNITED STATES AND OUTSIDE OF AMERICA .

1. You need to email them back and tell them there are only a few

2. This was debunked some time ago.

A CITGO boycott is not likely to accomplish much beyond the symbolic. Many different oil companies buy crude oil from Venezuela, so even Americans who shun CITGO brand gasoline have no guarantee that they aren't still sending their money to that country. And although CITGO may be owned by Petróleos de Venezuela, the national oil company of Venezuela, it is a formerly American company which is still headquartered in the U.S. (in Houston, Texas). CITGO employs 4,000 people in the USA and supplies 14,000 independent retailers with gasoline and other petroleum products — Americans with no substantive connection to Venezuela who would be economically harmed by such an action. CITGO also provides free or discounted heating oil to low-income communities and tribal reservations within the United States. And, of course, in today's oil market CITGO could likely find alternative buyers for its products far more easily than the U.S. could make up the shortfall created by a cut-off of Venezuelan oil.

The global and fungible nature of the world oil market doesn't really provide consumers with many effective opportunities to influence political issues through their buying patterns.

Petro Express is a privately-owned chain of convenience stores owned by The Pantry, Inc., which is headquartered in Sanford, North Carolina. It is not owned by CITGO or the Venezuela government. Although Petro Express outlets did once sell CITGO gasoline, the company stated in October 2006 that the chain would be phasing out sales of that brand by 2007. Soon after The Pantry's acquisition of Petro Express in 2007, the new parent company announced that gasoline sales at those outlets would be converted to Chevron's Texaco brand.

It is not uncommon for independent stations and chains to switch fuel suppliers from time to time. Occurrences of independents' dropping CITGO in favor of other suppliers are often misinterpreted by the public as attempts on CITGO's part to "switch names" in order to fool consumers into continuing to purchase CITGO gasoline.

According to news reports, Russia's Izhevsk Mechanical Plant (IMP) has already manufactured and supplied about 100,000 AK-103 assault rifles to Venezuela under an earlier contract, and they have also signed a contract for two arms plants in Venezuela (one to produce AK-103a and the other to produce 7.62-mm ammunition for those rifles), with construction to begin at the end of 2007 and be completed by 2010.

Also in 2007, Venezuela and Iran signed a $4 billion deal to develop Ayacucho 7, a block of the lucrative Orinoco Reserve in Venezuela which is believed to hold more than 30 billion barrels of oil. Under the deal, Iran will build four oil rigs off the shore of Venezuela by the end of the year.

3. Hmmm... Communist Rebels or Wahhabi Despots. Gosh, it's so hard to choose.

But since I have too, the Commies at least treat women better, so I'd use their gas. Citgo it is!


**Just poking fun at how dumb this argument is**

4. I'm in the UK

and I get this shit almost daily from a friend in NC. I just delete it.

[Lasher]

6. I have blocked a few senders.

This one guy would send around 6 messages every day. So I blocked him using Microsoft Outlook and now I don't see his messages at all unless I decide to look into my junk folder. But I usually don't block anyone because I think it's fun to debunk this type of drivel.

[dipsydoodle]

8. I can't do that in this case.

He also sends me funnies and we chat about jazz too which is how we became friends. I'm sure he knows that I frown on some of the stuff he distributes and ocasionally , much to his amusement, I hit reply to all and give his repuke friends a good bashing with our kinda stuff.

[Lasher]

12. That's the type of folks I like to do battle with.

That makes it fun like I said.

5. Communist rebel groups?

Why would capitalistic Russia support Communist rebel groups?

[pnorman]

7. Yeah! Let's all BOYCOTT Venezuelan oil!

That'll bring Chavez to his knees! I mean, WHO would he sell it to then? The fucking CHINAMEN? (Har de har!)

9. Make it stop....

10. Those idiots always need a boogyman..

good grief...the stupid..IT BURNS!!

11. e-mail them the US is raising the price of gas to 7.00 per gallon....

in order to comply with their mandate to cut off Chavez's Citgo supplies. We are importing slightly more barrels per day from Venezuela that SA. Just where do people think oil comes from, renewable dinosaurs? Venezuela is our 4th largest supplier of crude & refined product.

13. Ha ha, that's a great idea!

14. That's Sure News To My Local Citgo Dealer...

I filled up there this morning. Things sure looked fine to me. No Che Guevara's working the counter...no Cuba si, Castro No video on the obnoxious screen at the pump.

Gotta love the pretzl logic of these shitstains. Chavez cuts off his own huevos if he were to cut off oil sales to the U.S. But the wingnuts dream of the return to the "good old days" of the Cold War.
