WASHINGTON, May 26, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Responding to Hugo Chavez's threats against the U.S. for taking action to eliminate Chavez's support of the Iranian terrorist regime, Chairman of the Western hemisphere Subcommittee Connie Mack (FL-14) made the following statement:
"The insulting and arrogant comments of the Chavez government in response to the U.S. which finally called out Venezuela for aiding Iran, by illegally selling prohibited materials, is unacceptable.
"Hugo Chavez and his government face the real possibility of Patriotic Americans and our Government responding to their arrogance and their freedom threatening policies by boycotting Chavez's gasoline at CITGO stations. I along with the American people will not stand much longer for the threat Chavez poses to our freedom and security in our Hemisphere."
