Greetings: Here is an article that should
twist your underwear in a knot.
Energy Crisis?
Venezuela Gas Is Cheaper Than Water
http://today.reuters.com/news/newsartic ... rss&rpc=22
"Those gringos
have everything -- so why does their gas cost so
much?" asked Tinoco between chuckles as he navigated
a midday traffic jam. "Don't they have oil reserves?"
Excuse me, but isn't " gringo"
a pejorative term, that would be censored if it
referred to South Americans? Of course that is a
rhetorical question, and of course the answer is,
"Yes, it would be censored." From Dictionary.com
gringon : a
Latin American ( disparaging)
term for foreigners (especially Americans and Englishmen)
From Answers.com
grin·go (grĭng'gō)
n. Offensive Slang., pl. -gos. Used as a
disparaging term
for a foreigner in Latin America, especially an
American or English person. Aren't double
standards great when you can get away with it?
