Go Citgo: Join the BUY-cott!
From Jeff Cohen at CommonDreams.org—
Citgo is a U.S. refining and marketing firm that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Venezuela's state-owned oil company. Money you pay to Citgo goes primarily to Venezuela -- not Saudi Arabia or the Middle East. There are 14,000 Citgo gas stations in the US. (Click here http://www.citgo.com/CITGOLocator/StoreLocator.jsp to find one near you.) By buying your gasoline at Citgo, you are contributing to the billions of dollars that Venezuela's democratic government is using to provide health care, literacy and education, and subsidized food for the majority of Venezuelans.
Let me add that unlike so many Leftie-Liberal promotions of products that turn out to be a great deal more expensive (such as shade-grown coffee) and beyond the reach of the commoner, Citgo gasoline is one of the cheapest brands.
What a deal! (Of course we should sip, not guzzle.)
