Note that *I* have not checked this with Snopes. I am reading the information on the site, but, there is nothing specific about this. Also, they (snopes) state that by "buycotting or boycotting" certain places you can't be sure your money isn't still going to this clown. (ok, I used the words clown, they didn't.)

Read and check this one out yourselves. I'm merely posting it since it's yet another one that has gone through my mail box today.

IN ORLANDO LAST WEEK, AT A CITGO STATION REGULAR WAS PRICED AT $2.82
PER GALLON. THERE WERE NO CUSTOMERS.

HOWEVER ACROSS THE STREET WHERE I FUELED IT WAS SELLING FOR $2.85 PER GALLON AND ALL PUMPS THERE HAD CARS WAITING TO FUEL.

Have you noticed how the Citgo signs have disappeared in the past 7-8 months?

Very clever move by Chavez. But guess what CITGO IS CHANGING ITS
NAME TO? ...this is serious Americans...make sure you read.

NEWS FLASH:
Chavez is NOW getting a Russian Weapons Factory built by Putin. The
RUSSIANS are building an AK-47 Kalashnikov Assault Rifle factory in Venezuela to
give armament support to Communist Rebel groups throughout the Americas.

Chavez NOW has IRANIANS operating his oil refineries in Venezuela for him.
It is likely only a matter of time, if not already, before Chavez has
Iranian built LONG RANGE missiles, with a variety of warhead types aimed at....

Guess Who?

CITGO is NOW in the process of Changing its name to PETRO EXPRESS due to
the loss of gasoline sales in the US A due to the recent publicity of ownership
by Chavez of Venezuela.

Every dollar you spend with CITGO or PETRO EXPRESS gasoline will be used
against you, your basic human rights, and your freedoms. He will start wars
here in the Americas that will probably be the death of millions.

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT because Chavez is starting to feel the loss of
revenue from his holdings. HE OWNS CITGO. This is a very important move
that everyone should be aware of.

ANNOUNCED JUST RECENTLY, CITGO, BEING AWARE THAT SALES ARE DOWN DUE TO U.S. CUSTOMERS NOT WANTING TO BUY FROM "CITGO-CHAVEZ," HAS STARTED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF SOME OF THEIR STORES TO:

"PETRO EXPRESS."
DO NOT BUY FROM "PETRO EXPRESS" EITHER!!!

"PETRO EXPRESS" IS ALSO 100% OWNED BY "CHAVEZ."

KEEP THIS MEMO GOING SO THAT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING. BOYCOTT "CITGO" AND "PETRO EXPRESS."

MAKE SURE THIS IS PASSED ON TO EVERYONE IN YOUR E-MAIL LIST IN THE UNITED STATES AND OUTSIDE OF AMERICA.
