that actually dared to lower its prices last year - at least for the
poorest Americans. Last week Barton demanded the Venezuelan-owned
company Citgo produce all records, minutes, logs, e-mails and even desk
calendars related to the company's novel program of supplying
discounted heating oil to low-income communities in the United States.


We have the best elected government officials money can buy......

I plan to appropriately express my opinion of them in the next
