Drilling mitigates the rising prices and that is the step that must be accomplished first.

Liberals are born without brains, that makes carrying on an intelligent conversation with them extremely difficult.

Nancy Pelosi:
“This call for drilling in areas that are protected is a hoax, it’s an absolute hoax on the part of the Republicans and this administration” Pelosi said at her weekly press conference. “It’s a decoy to punt your attention away from the fact that their policies have produced $4-a-gallon gasoline.”

This call is rat bull shiite. Using the strategic reserve is mere goal post moving of the kind the rodent always uses.
Moses you give them too much credit. The scumbag democrats aren’t stupid. They are anti American traitors willing to throw America under a bus to protect their masters in the marxist environmental movement. PERIOD, and BTW Yes I do question their patriotism, I certainly do.

And a REAL rainy day is Iran raining down nukes on Israel and shutting down the straights of Hormuz.

Democrats think we are all as stupid as their constituents. President Bush stopped filling the SPR and the price of oil is still going up.

I would like the oil companies to call Congress’ bluff and tell them to take back the oil leases which are going to be up soon anyway. Who will Congress give the oil leases to? The Saudis?

Boy are they stupid.

The Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Is estimated to hold 85 billion barrels of undiscovered recoverable oil (BBO) but it is not enough to make a difference, we can’t drill our way out of this, so we shouldn’t drill here.

http://www.mms.gov/revaldiv/PDFs/2006NationalAssessmentBrochure.pdf

The Arctic National Wildlief Refuge (ANWR) Is estimated to hold 7 BBO economically recoverable at a market price of $30/bbl (1998 economic analysis) but it is certainly not enough to make a difference, we can’t drill our way out of this, so we shouldn’t drill there.

http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs-0028-01/fs-0028-01.htm

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) contains 0.706 (ZERO point seven) BBO (July 11, 2008 inventory), but President Bush is blocking the release of a portion of this inventory which would make a needed difference in prices.

So say Tierney, Pelosi, Reid, Israel, and Van Hollen.

Oh, please!

I don’t get it

We are in the middle of a war

We have stopped putting oil into the reserve

We are about to go to war with Iran

And they want to start draining the reserve?

Congresspersons are individually bright, not necessarily of FR quality. Unfortunately they need the support of their Party and as a group they are imbeciles.

Quitter Loser Congress says each step toward energy independence is "Just a drop in the bucket....Ten years away.....zzzzzzzz".....

Quitter Losers can say that every ten years.

Traditional Americans say "Well, if you string several Drops In The Bucket together every ten years, you start to put a dent in the problem. So let's do it."

Most. Worthless. Quitter. LOSER. Excuse. For. A. Congress. In. My. Half-Century. Lifetime.

This is in the face of a potential world wide oil crises caused by Iran.

Does anyone think the reserve would be refilled if is emptied?

The famous Congressional Kick the Can down the road til after the elections. Borrow from Peter to pay Paul is no solution. After you pump out the reserve, then what?

If you like $5/gal, Thank Congress in Nov.

Pray for W and Our Troops

I think Bush will sell oil from the SPR to American refineries. After he gets drilling and more refineries.
