Following another Bush-bashing by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, New York's governor is so angry that he said he will personally boycott one of the Chavez government's biggest revenue makers - the Citgo oil and gasoline company.

Republican George Pataki, a potential 2008 presidential candidate, said he has had more than enough with the Venezuelan leader bad mouthing the American commander-in-chief.

"This person has no right coming to our country to criticize our president. He can take his cheap oil and do something for the poor people of Venezuela," said Pataki during an interview with Fox News.

When asked if he would patronize Citgo, the gas company owned by Petroleus de Venezuela, the state-run oil company, Pataki told Fox News, "I have no plans to."
