7-11 Dumps Citgo. Venezuela Responds

Venezuela responded testily to the news that 7-11 stores nationwide will be dropping the use of CITGO gasoline.

Said a Venezuelan spokesman, "We defend out President Chavez's recent statements and find them to be factually accurate." Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez recently made headlines when he addressed the United Nations assembly and accused President Bush of being the devil. 

According to the New York Times, several university professors were consulted and concluded, "We can definitely see how President George Bush is the Devil himself."

As a further counter to the moves by 7-11, Venezuela today announced that it would no longer have a need for three-day old hot dogs. We used to think we could bring these in and feed them to our pigs, but now we've discovered that pigs, like Americans,  will pretty much eat anything.

7-11 officials had no comment.
