Your statement of "repatriate it all I say" is well taken.....Chavez took control of oil interests that outside countries owned. Now I am not advocating breaching contracts but maybe we need to find a fair and equitable way to regain ownership in U.S. interests. Maybe we have to take them back. Just watching parts of Alaska being taken (ok, bought) by another country has created a feeling that "something isn't right with with this" attitude. Because I know it is so much more prevalent in the lower 48. How many times did we hear the term "he would sell his mother!" Well I thought much more of my mother and my country as well. Sometimes I have to wonder why this country allows this to happen. sigh
