Media Matters: NBC's Mitchell listed four "repugnant" countries U.S. not "willing to do business" with - but U.S. imports oil from two of them

"NBC News' Andrea Mitchell falsely suggested that the United States, unlike China, does not import oil from Venezuela and Nigeria. However, according the Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration (EIA), the United States imports significant quantities of oil from Venezuela and Nigeria. In fact, in January 2006, Venezuela was the second-largest source of imported oil to the United States, after Canada."
