Is it pathetic that Hugo Chavez can give Americans more energy...

[originalpckelly]

help than our own government? Is it pathetic that Cuba has a better hurricane evacuation plan than America?

1. I am so pissed that third world countries...

and communist dictatorships can outdo American preparations.

2. Hugo doesn't want to deal with the devil. Who does, really?

Too bad Bush is such a complete jerk. The whole world knows it.

3. What type of energy are you talking about?

Is this the same energy that we can not drill for or build any new refineries for? If it is soooo wrong for the US to drill for oil then why is it sooooo great that Chavez drill and supply the US with it? If we would let the evil oil companies drill here in the US then maybe the price would come down some. I still think that if we in the US were to come up with an affordable alternative energy source that that would make Chavez and the Middle East unimportant.

5. Are you pissed off Chavez sold cheap oil to the Northeast last winter?

Are you pissed off Chavez sent the president of Citgo and other executives to New Orleans to evacuate people on their planes in a similar fashion to Al Gore right after Katrina plowed through?

6. No, I do not. I am pissed that he works with OPEC

to cut back on production to keep the price up and then try to buy off people with discounted oil to try and make himself look like a good guy.

7. It's something that all of us should shame...

That America can't take care of its poor. :cry:

8. Be ashamed of ???

How should we take care of our poor? How can we help them to help themselves get out of poverty?
