The O’Reilly Factor: What’s all our oil doing under their soil?!

O’REILLY: In the “impact” segment tonight, the anti-American leader of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, is using that country’s oil in a very clever way. Venezuela, as you may know, owns Citgo. And that company is donating oil to the poor. Former Congressman Joseph Kennedy is right in the middle of that.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There’s another war going on, a silent war. Its battles are fought by children, the elderly, the poor, and the sick. It’s a war against women in homes with no heat. Yet our own government cut fuel assistance. And the big oil companies with oil and money to burn all said no when we asked for help, all but one, Citgo, owned by the Venezuelan people. It’s donating millions of gallons to non-profit Citizens Energy.


Some people say it’s bad politics to do this. I say it’s a crime against humanity not to, because no one, no one should be left out in the cold.

O’REILLY: All right, with us now to analyze, FOX News business anchor Terry Keenan and Liz Claman.

This is similar to what we just did with the homeless vets in the sense that there’s a big issue here about poor people in America not being able to heat their homes. And we can’t have that. But is this accurate? Is what Kennedy’s saying accurate? All the big American companies said no, but Hugo Chavez ran to the rescue.
