| US "planned, prepared and ordered" conflict in Georgia: Venezuela |
| 2008-08-16 |
 Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Thursday accused the United States of masterminding the current conflict between Georgia and Russia. A statement from Chavez's government alleged the conflict was "planned, prepared and ordered" by Washington in an "incitement of violence." It gives no evidence to support those claims. It also said Russia acted to protect local residents from "unacceptable acts of violence" perpetrated by Georgian troops. |

| #6 Procopius2k I'm thinking those refineries are more valuable doing the hard work they do. Perhaps Glenmore or the alpine humanoid could enlighten us. |

| #5 The Donk leadership has some sort of strategic purpose for wanting to keep us short on oil. It's not environmental concern, they have never really used that argument before a couple of months ago. Whatever it is, I cant believe it is solely for the good of the US. |

| #4 One of Nancy's excuses for not drilling is the amount of time to bring new refineries on line. How about Kelo'ing the Citco-Venezuelan refineries in Houston and switching them over to domestic light crude we could extract? That'll be quicker since the environmental impact will be minimal. |

| #2 It's true, we did. But it's just the first pawn in the chain to destroy 21st Century Socialism. Vz oil basket going off at public 113. Danger for Hugolito if it dips for any length of time below 86 USD. He's already trashing the Argentine bonds he bought, next it'll be his. |
