No only a socialist but a dictator, how dare he do something like that!!!!!!

Oh, he is just showing off you know, he got oil and he is just showing off, evil, evil man.

People do not understand that poor capitalism and big US corporate greedy oil barons can not make money out of Chavez and Venezuela oil.

This money!!!!!! for god sake money only to be made by the oil barons, no to be given away Freeeeeee.

Evil, evil, socialist dictator Chavez.

Well what can I say - I guess PRIDE won in this cases. City of Chicago might turned away the free oil, but did the poor people living in the city of Chicago?

Actually accepting Chavez oil in America will be deemed as aiding the enemy, so that is why we have groups of thinkers for the poor, even if the poor still freezes to death.

But I really do not understand the Eskimos. Aren't they cold and would like some free oil, to warm their igloos up? Weird...

I feel sorry for the Eskimos really, they have oil in their lands and can not even get free oil from from our own government.

Wait!!!!! they do get oil right? but do they get it free.

Does any one else here think that Chavez will be wanting something in return for the free oil or what ever else he decides to give away? That is besides being able to track people with the cards.

But Alaskans do get paid by the state to live there and they do not pay any state taxes, the state pays them xxx number of dollars each month for each member of the family which comes from the Oil industry so in a way you are wrong because they do get benfits from the oil industry.

The state of Alaska also get the royalties from the oil, and a certain amount of the royalties is given to each resident of Alaska each year.

Well shots that is news to me, I didn't know they get benefits in Alaska.

Does Texans also get benefits from the oil?

Interesting, I guess Alaskans fall in the native american cathegory while texans do not.

If I was a texan I will be complaing about that.

Interesting, I guess because Alaskans are considered natives Americans while Texans are not.

If I was a Texan I will complain about that.

From what I've heard it's not alot though, like 1,000 dollars a year.
It may have been month, but I'm thinking it's a year.

I remember this because I had an English teacher who lived in Alaska 10 years,
and he mentioned it.

Um, which has what to do with the topic?

Chavez, Castro's best friend giving away oil. How nice.

Better he take that oil and stuff it- he's el diablo pretending to do good around the world. Sorry, and sorry for those who will have a cold winter, i mean that from the bottom of my heart, but to accept oil from that snakeoil peddler, is to accept Satan, 666, and the whole kit and kabootle.

I cant stomach EVIL DISGUISED AS GOOD. Dont fall for it.

If he wants to do GOOD, he should help support every one of his people and send aid to Cubans that have it so bad. After all, they're friends.

He extends his claws to the British and Americans so that he can be looked upon as a humanitarian when his own people are starving.

well, it's nice of him.

I refuse to take back my comments about him being undemocratic

Chavez, actually loves the United Kingdom, when he was over meeting the London Mayor he said how much he liked the Queen and the British people.
