Don’t believe what you see on TV commercials folks. Citgo is doing an ad campaign where they are trying to convince you that money you spend at Citgo helps your local community. Sure, SOME of the money does go to local businesses, but SOME goes to Hugo Chavez the Venezuelan Dictator and SOME goes to the FARC (honest-to-goodness Communist Rebels in Columbia). IF YOU SUPPORT TERRORISM CONTINUE TO BUY CITGO GASOLINE. Get the point?
I’m just getting started on this issue, and it is one that has the Executive Committee concerned, so I have started a whole thread just for Citgo. Citgo is owned by Hugo Chaves, the Venezuelan Dictator that hates the United States and also hates you. He owns Citgo and every dollar you spend there sends money back to him. Money paid to Citgo can be traced to terrorism across the globe. But for today, read what the Wall Street Journal has to say about Hugo and his support of the Communist Rebels in Columbia (something even our open-border-radical-illegal-immigration-lawyer-friends would be upset about). If you don’t want to help provide rocket propelled grenades to Communist Rebels, then STOP BUYING GAS FROM CITGO TODAY. A few more pennies might just save a life.

Once again Al Dale shows readers of The Times that (1) he can’t think and (2) that he can’t write. No doubt Al is a Jimmy Carterlover. No doubt he hates the American soldier just as much as all elite liberals do (like Hillary and Obama). He personally attacks Ted Oglesby implying that Ted’s comments are denigrating. Does he know that Ted is a retired Air Force Colonel? What service did Al serve in? Al and his buddies would argue even a single American death is enough to shut down the entire war effort. Why? Is it because they care deeply about our soldiers and are traumatized and stunned by the personal loss of their family? No way! They only want the MONEY from defense to spend on their pet projects (e.g. someone urinating on a Cross as “art”). As a veteran myself, I know the ONLY difference between me, Ted, and that fallen soldier is luck and timing. Ted and I care about those soldiers and their families. But we know that those brave men and women are fighting for something worth more than themselves–freedom. Something worth more than 1,000,000 Al Dales and something that has cost more than 1,000,000 guys better than him.
