Am I the only one who gets repulsed by the "Joe for Oil" ads?

Joe Kennedy talks down to people so bad, that you can scarcely believe that anyone would buy his bullshit. How stupid does he think we are? And how many old people and veterans will he treat like stooges in his obnoxious ads???

No Joe... The Citco oil doesn't hardly come from the "people of Venezuela", any more than the "people of America" give us oil from Texaco.

I haven't figured out what the scam is, but the stink is there.

As an Irish Catholic from a working class family in Lynn, MA, it is a cardinal sin to dis the Kennedy's.... but this is just too tough to take.
Citgo pulled their subsidy this past November. Chavez had gotten all the press he needed out of it (see, Light Weight in the White House)and now, you pay full, dirty American!
Joe's not for profit schtick does not account for his salary (600 large, that will buy a few pints) and those of his executive level colleagues, who also run for profit energy businesses.
