president of ignoring the poor so in 2005 the venezuelan president announced that citgo would provide discounted heating oil to nearly 2,000 poor american households. he hoped to have a better relationship with president obama but a year after his election he called obama a poor ignoramus. hours before his death he expelled two foreign diplomats. ines ferre, cbs news. >>> well, venezuela's vice president nicolas maduro will act as into trim president until re-election supposedly in 30 days. >>> the dow makes history, plus martha stewart's day in court. >>> good morning to you, anne-marie. wall street jumped into record territory tuesday. the dow climbed 125 points to finish at 14,253. that is 89 points higher than the previous record set in october of 2007. the new high is more than double the rock bottom low of 6,500 the dow touched on march 9th, 2009. a big difference between october 2007 and now is the unemployment rate. back then it was 4.7%. now it is at 7.9%. companies have more cash, but are slow to hire. some analysts say that's because they're still worried about the economy.

relationship change with them at all in terms of oil supplies that they send into this country and citgo i think one thing that's not well understood is that our buying the oil from venezuela is more important for venezuela than them selling it to us. the idea that they would shut down sales to the u.s. is crazy. i mean, the whole dictatorship depends on all of this dollar flow, right? if we all of a sudden said, do you know what? we don't need the oil anymore. we can get it from alberta through the keystone pipeline -- dagen: that's why it's an important topic. >> oil is a global pool and we can get that oil from anywhere and right now he supplies those gulf coast refineries but we don't have to get the oil from venezuela. that's the problem more for them than always. connell: thank you. dagen: thank you so much. microsoft slapped with a huge fine for not playing ball with regulators in the e.u. connell: we'll talk about that and the cyber threat series continues today as we talk about the importance of tougher cyber crime laws, bringing security in the government. ♪ [ cows moo ] [ sizz

and chavez, it's all the citgo stations in the u.s. chavez never used it.ever, the last 14 years the relationship has been very frigid, and i think it is an opportunity for us to step in in a new relationship with venezuela. it's an important oil-producing country. there's going to be an election there. the opposition candidate is pro-u.s. maduro, the vice president is not pro-u.s., but i think is going to be more pragmatic with chavez. but in the region, i think we have an opportunity to make inroads in the region because several countries had started to follow chavez against the u.s. in the region. >> right. that's what my you understanding was very frustrated about, and anti-american sentiment in latin america has been strong for decades. but let me ask you this, you met hugo chavez, you sat down with him. was this a dictator, was this a strong man? was he everything that he was described quite often by american politicians, or did you feel like it was an elected democratic leader who just came from the socialist wing of the political pendulum? >> no, ch

citgo is where you get nezuelan gas, although venezuela's gas is also blended with other kinds of gasnd of branded gas station you go to. citgo was acquired by the venezuelan oil company in 1990 and hugo chavez himself really tightened control, state control of the energy infrastructure inside venezuela. so he was really a sworn enemy of the united states and then all of a sudden a major business partner of the united states and this really gives the u.s. and its latin american policy a great, unbelievable opening. and the reason is because he has really blunted american efforts in many places across latin america for years now, by giving subsidized oil to people who agreed with him and disagreed with the united states. so how the u.s. treads here is really important diplomatically but also right down to what goes into your gas tank. >> we saw a very carefully worded statement from the white house looking towards the future trying to start a new relationship. >> and it also depends on who wins the presidential election as well, what will happen next. >> and what kind of policies they
