Chavez: A champion of America's poor?

Here's a good story that I just ran across - Hugo Chavez - Pat Robertson's arch nemesis and President of oil rich Venezuela - wants to sell "cut-price heating oil to U.S. poor".

This is getting more hilarious with each passing day. It appears that Chavez wants to sell heating oil directly to America's poor. According to the article the "details" of how this would be accomplished would be worked out later. Therefore will Chavez become a champion of the poor in America as he has in Venezuela? Of course the always media hungry Jesse Jackson is presently in Venezuela promoting this idea with Chavez.

Trust me, this isn't going to happen even if George Bush and Dick Cheney have to personally sit at a port in Houston and dump out every barrel of oil earmarked by Chavez to America's poor into the Gulf of Mexico. Let's just give a big collective"thank you" to Pat Robertson for making Chavez's name vernacular, and thus creating an opportunity for Chavez to show the rest of America what a lot of oil, and good old fashion populism can do.
