7 Eleven: the "Devil Made me do it"

It looks like 7 eleven will quit selling citgo over Hugo Chavez's remarks calling Bush the Devil at the UN. Well, that's what their spokeperson said: 7-Eleven spokesman Margaret Chabris said that, "Regardless of politics, we sympathize with many Americans' concern over derogatory comments about our country and its leadership recently made by Venezuela's president Hugo Chavez." http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060927/ap_on_bi_ge/7_eleven_citgo

In reality, thanks to commenter "Little", I found out that the right wingers have been crowing over this for a long time now. Here's an example: http://sadbastards.wordpress.com/2006/08/23/oh-thank-heaven-for-7-eleven-dropping-citgo/ So it's just crass marketing that they decided to jump on the bullsh*t bandwagon.
