The latest CITGO commercial on television narrated by Danny Glover
attempts to cast a "social responsibility" disguise over the effects of Hugo Chavez's
control of CITGO and the use of its huge revenues to fund Chavez's role as Maximum Leader of the
CACASAPS component of the IFAPS Alliance
The smooth voice of Glover in the commercial belies the virulently anti-American, anti-capitalist,
anti-liberty, anti-Western and (yes) anti-Semitic ideology of Paleo-Stalinism, of which Chavez seeks
to be the international leader, and likewise funds his collaborative, supportive relationship with
leaders of Islamo-Fascism, such as Iran's
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad go

Not only is Chavez using CITGO's huge revenues to catapult him into unchallenged leadership among
the Paleo-Stalinists in Latin America, but he's also using the economic and political clout derived
from such revenues to lend tactical and strategic support to Islamo-Fascists such as Iran's Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad. Given Chavez's cozy relationship with Ahmadinejad as well as a potential
alliance with his ideological soul-brother, Kim Il Jung of North Korea, how long will it be before
Chavez will have nuclear weapons to supplement the advanced weaponry Putin has agreed to sell him?
We need to determine a way to make it too costly to Putin for him to complete the proposed arms-deal
with Chavez. What can we do? Perhaps we should announce our potential willingness to
sell (give, if necessary) advanced American fighters to a number of Eastern European countries
bordering Russia. (Would that create an incentive such as Kennedy's giving up missiles in
Turkey in exchange for Khrushchev's missiles in Cuba?)
Regarding Chavez's cash cow, the only thing I can do as an individual is the same that I do with
respect to the likes of Danny Glover-- I make sure that none of my money ends up in their
pockets. However, there's a lot that American politicians can do: (1) immediately enact
legislation for oil-drilling in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico and within other territorial waters
controlled by the United States; (2) immediately enact legislation to create strong incentives for
construction of more refineries; (3) immediately enact legislation to create strong incentives for
new nuclear power plants; and (4) immediately enact legislation creating strong incentives for
converting coal, shale and sand-tar into fuels. Opponents of such actions would claim that it
would be "years" before any such actions could significantly reduce our dependence on
foreign oil. That is correct, but what they ignore is that the very acts of passing such
legislation would depress the price of oil. Why? At present, it isn't insufficient
supply compared to demand that is keeping the price of oil so high. Instead, it's what anyone
with a rudimentary understanding of the marketplace knows-- i.e., that a large portion of the
current price of oil is dependent upon fear and uncertainty. When suppliers (and middle-men)
realize that the processes have been set in motion to change the balance, such realization will in
and of itself create downward pressure on prices.
