fairfield county connecticut, the richest county of the richest state in america, surprisingly has its share of poor people and towns. the mayor of one such city has also signed a deal with chavez for low-cost oil for the poor. ditto new haven, and thanks to a meeting a female staffer had with a venezuelan official the program expanded from 4000 local families to include 20,000 more in all of connecticut.

- js.

asked at the press conference whether new haven is helping an american enemy make america look bad, mayor destefano noted that the u.s. already imports 15 percent of its oil from venezuela.

"we make ourselves look bad," he added, "by not having an energy policy."
