The Venezuela government, run by dictator Chavez, is the sole owner
of Citgo
gas company. Sales of products at Citgo stations send money back to
Chavez to help him in his vow to bring down our government.
Please decide that you will not be shopping at a Citgo station. Why
should U.S. citizens who love freedom be financing a dictator who has
vowed to take
down our government?
Alert friends and family; most of them probably don't know that Citgo
is owned by the Venezuela government.

YOU CAN VERIFY THIS ON THE CITGO WEB PAGE.

I'm not clear on why Chavez bothers you. His speeches are no different
than Bush's. "Bring it on!" Remember? He is complicit in the murder
of 2712 of our soldiers, while blissfully ignoring the
Afghanistan-Pakistan border area, where the real problems lie.
