John McCombs, a Gulf Shores, AL businessman, was in a telephone interview on Fox & Friends this morning talking about his anti-Citgo billboard on Highway 59. The newsworthy billboard (right) shows a picture of Hugh Chavez holding a Citgo logo, and reads: "Don't by gas from this Ass". Citgo is a petroleum company owned by the government of Venezuela and Hugo Chavez.
Baldwin County Sheriff Huey Hoss Mack followed McCombs in the interview and said that he has not received any calls complaining about the billboard.
