WDBO Listener Jay: Media is a "Propaganda Machine"

I guess this guy has got a point. As much as I dislike dictators like Chavez, I do believe most people in the U.S.A. don't have any say when it comes to who their enemy OR friend is (as far as the foreign regimes are concerned).

Media has to take part of the blame in jumping in on the band wagon, and acting like a propaganda machine for the U.S. government.

WDBO Listener 'Gach': Chavez is Part of 'Axis of Evil'

I remember 7-11 [convenience store] was going to break the agreement with CITGO in order not to buy more oil from Venezuela. At least I have done my part and have not purchased a penny in gasoline from 7-11.

The Dictator Chavez, as many others, always have followers which are blind to the reality of the country. These followers can't see the consequences of the problems he is causing. Venezuela is becoming a new Cuba under a Socialist dictatorship, going nowhere and stirring up hatred in South America. This dictator is just one step away [from becoming] a terrorist, as right now he gives a free haven to the guerrillas that are oppressing Colombia, Ecuador and partly Peru.

I just don't understand why people [are so compliant] and follow empty promises which will undermine Venezuela in the mid and long term. This dictator is part of the 'Axis of Evil' and therefore should be advertised as such.

WDBO Listener E. Solares: If Venezuela Is So Great, Why Be Here?

I also grew up in Venezuela and this guy Samara is obviously a "Chavista," as Chavez is rapidly inculcating the Venezuelan government and society into a Socialist state, along the lines of Cuba.

There are price controls on most food items and you cannot find any of these items at regulated markets where they must be sold at the controlled price.

Private schools are now required by the government to change textbooks to reflect the new Socialist way, and uniforms are now in the colors of red: the Chavez color!

Crime is the highest it has ever been. The poor, by all statistics available, have gotten poorer, and private ownership is being attacked.

There is no longer press freedom, as Chavez already has had the license for RCTV cancelled, and the government expropriated all equipment.

If it is so good in Venezuela at the present time, then what is Samarra doing here?

WDBO Listener Erik: Don't Take Freedom for Granted

I support the billboard 100% and would like to see more of them. This country needs to wake up and be aware of the threats we face. People are caught up in their everyday lives and take our freedom for granted.

WDBO Listener L. Crews: Love the U.S. Or Leave It!

Let him go back to Venezuela, if he loves the President so well.

I have missionary friends who were removed from Venezuela, just for sharing God's Word. What does that tell you about that President?

WDBO Listener J. Thatcher: Deport Chavez Supporters

A billboard is NOT a statement of national policy.

I happen to agree with the sentiment. Nevertheless, when you call my President 'a devil' you have insulted my nation.

I would support a movement to collect funds to send Mr. Samara back to his beloved homeland.

WDBO Listener Michael: Look to Hollywood

Although not a "World Leader," you should have included their buddy Sean Penn!

WDBO Listener Mardi: Love It or Leave It

I have one piece of advice for Mr. Samara. If Chavez is so great... go back home! Why are you still here if the U.S. is so bad? Think about it.

WDBO Listener B. Werner: Keep It Up!

Chavez has committed to using petrol dollars from Citgo to finance the overthrow of our government. The Florida Turnpike still sells Citgo gas at their stations. Sean Penn and Danny Glover, to name two, have kissed his ***. Have we Americans lost our mind? There aren't enough billboards in America to illustrate what a piece of crap this individual and his cohorts are.

Keep up the good work. When the Liberals and Progressives realize that Conservatives will not go away, maybe George Soros and others like him will put their money to good use.

WDBO Listener ???

Note: This e-mail came to us with a sender address of "Walt Disney World Security Kiosk All Star." We are not sure if this person agrees with the billboards or not!

There is nothing wrong with it.

WDBO Listener David: Billboards Are Unintelligent and Insulting

Will you please take down or change that disgusting billboard?! I realize it is your right to post it and that you wish to advertise your station and its commitment to the news, but it's an eyesore and a slap in the face to America and Americans, and seeing that every morning as soon as I get on the highway makes me ill, inflames my anger against your station, and induces me not to listen to it. Why don't you just put a giant pinup of Hitler on your building?

There are more subtle, intelligent, and less insulting ways to advertise yourself and the importance of what you do than to stick giant posters of bloody butchers and anti-American hate mongers in our faces. How about it?
