  Are you helping support the man who tells Secretary of State Rice to "Go to
  Hell?" (1)

  We all do, every time you pump some gas. 

  Of course, I'm speaking of President Chavez of Venezuela from whom the USA
  purchases about 560 million barrels of oil each year to supply our needs(2).
  Figure $50/bbl. You do the math.

  It's a crazy world when a supplier can abuse and ridicule his customers. But
  then, we're not customers. We're addicts, as hooked on oil as any bum in the
  gutter is hooked on drugs. 

  I don't like to think of my country as a "bum in the gutter" of the world,
  so dependent upon the resources of other nations that we have to bow down
  and prostrate ourselves before people like him. 

  Iraq isn't our only problem. I wonder if it's even our biggest problem.
  Perhaps the biggest problem is right here at home, sitting at the gas pumps
  in service stations all over the country.
