Stalin reportedly said that America will sell us the rope we will hang them with. Today, it’s worse! We are paying Hugo Chavez for the rope (Citgo gas) he will hang us with.
Venezuelian communist leader Hugo Chavez is off visiting with Iran’s leaders, cutting deals and is a great friend of Fidel Castro. Watch him make a move to support Rafael, Castro’s brother and heir to the dictatorship of Cuba.
One point to ask the major media, why aren’t they reporting that CITGO Petroleum is owned by Venezuela’s government, PDVSA? And the $30 billion in revenue that Americans pay at CITGO and a few Mystic stations goes directly to the communist regime run by leftist millitary leader Chavez. He spreads the wealth with Cuba and any left-leaning politician in the world. He supplied tens of thousands of his supporters with new AK-47s “to keep the peace.”
CITGO stations are not franchise owners as they often are with Exon, Texaco, BP, Shell and Chevron, they are “jobbers” who only have contracts to buy gas at a discount from CITGO. They are the bottom of the barrel in cleanliness and quality control and very few would make the grade with the major oil service stations. The quality control checks are done by CITGO managers. CITGO’s number of stations has fallen greatly as news of the real ownership gets out on blogs. No mention in the mainstream media. CITGO stations numbered nearly 15,000, just a few years ago, now they have fallen below 13,000. And Chavez is cutting supply to more than 1,000 in the next two months. The top executives at CITGO’s new Houston headquarters are all leftist Venezuelian supporters of Chavez. The American executives have been purged. CITGO is leasing their offices in West Houston off Eldridge just south of the I-10. Though a lease, the compound is reported to have bullet-proof glass and has a security fence that is military-grade. Drive by and see for yourself. The lobby has a Marxist faux bronze statue of “the workers.”
One VP was asked to go back home after he was spotted “sporting” a weapon.
Not only do the liberal newspapers and networks ignore this fascinating story, the New York Times subsidiary About.com has a paid blogger who tells his readers to shop at CITGO to bolster Chavez and his Marxist plans for South and Central America. US liberals are actually tryng to shop more often at CITGO.
Finally, Bill O’Reilly has caught up with these enemies within our midst, but he doesn’t know all the details, yet. If you find this hard to believe, Google it for yourself.
In a free market the buyers are just as important as the suppliers and producers. If we take steps with reasonable actions, we can, in fact, force prices at the pump to inch lower. Boycott CITGO. There are steps we can all take. And they are justified.

A federal grand jury in Houston has indicted Citgo’s Corpus Christi, Texas, refinery and a facility manager for reportedly operating open top tanks as oil-water separators without installing required emission controls to prevent the release of benzene, (a highly toxic chemical) among other violations, the Department of Justice said Aug. 9 (United States v. Citgo Petroleum, S.D. Tex., case number not available, indicted 8/9/06).Citgo is fully owned by Venezuela’s communist state-owned oil company PDVSA, whose president, Hugo Chavez , uses billions of dollars to prop up Fidel Castro’s communist regime and spread a “new socialism” throughout Central and South America.Citgo Petroleum and its environmental compliance manager, P. Vrazel, were indicted in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas in Houston on charges of operating the East Plant Refinery in violation of the National Emission Standard for Benzene Waste Operations, the Clean Air Act, and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Ironically, Citgo’s administration US offices are in Houston. Nearly all of the top executives at the offices are newly-appointed, and hand-picked by Chavez, for political payola.According to the 10 count indictment, more than 57 megagrams of benzene in the refinery’s waste stream were exposed to the air during 2000. Federal regulations limit refineries to operating with no more than six megagrams of benzene in their exposed waste stream, the indictment said. In 2001, the facility operated with more than seven megagrams of benzene in its exposed waste streams, prosecutors said. A megagram is equal to one metric ton.Protected Birds Covered With Oil
The indictment said Vrazel failed to identify in an annual report filed in 2000 with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality all of the points in the plant’s wastewater system where benzene was generated at the Citgo East Refinery.
The indictment further alleged that during an unannounced inspection in March 2002, state regulators found approximately 4.5 million gallons of oil in the two open top tanks.
Regulators allegedly found protected migrating birds that had been coated with oil after landing in the open tank tops. Such tanks must be fitted with nets or other equipment to prevent the birds from entering or landing in the oil, according to a Justice Department statement.
The tanks are located along the Corpus Christi Ship Channel near Nueces Bay and adjacent to waters that form part of a major flyway for migratory birds. Several pelicans, cormorants, and other species of ducks had landed in the tanks.
If convicted, Citgo faces fines up to $500,000 or twice the gross economic gain, whichever is greater, and five years of probation, the Justice Department said.
Vrazel faces fines up to $500,000 and up to five years in prison.
There is a “buycott” of Citgo by American socialists in support of Chavez promoted on the New York Times About.com and other left of center Web sites. Boycotts of Citgo by a broad mix of middle Americans, conservatives and independents have been growing. With this lawsuit, the boycott is expected to gain momentum. So ask yourself, if you have a choice of gas stations, why would you buy at CITGO? It’s like Stalin saying “The Americans will sell us the rope we will hang them with.”
