Message	The information posted on OKZCC.com is blatantly false and, unfortunately, is swallowed as the truth by the uninformed. http://www.snopes.com/politics/gasoline/saudigas.asp CITGO gas is not from Venezuela. Venezuela does not export much gasoline. And 7-11 did not drop CITGO as a supplier, CITGO dropped 7-11 as a marketer during a market. Although I can't argue with the "douchebag" comment, the "caught red handed" part is as arguable as Chavez's argument that the U.S was behind the coup that overthrew a democratically elected president in Venezuela. I think the current U.S. leadership is perfect evidence that douchebags can make it to high office despite the best intentions of the citizens of democracies.
