Yup. To quote Hans Solo: “I have a bad feeling about this.”

Russia is feeling very threatened. Countries have gone to war over lesser provocations.

If Congress and the President simply opened up all those areas that they have closed to oil exploration over the years, and stopped the environMENTALists from blocking them, then we could get more oil at these lower prices. Fracking might dry up, but the more conventional, cheaper methods of extraction would come roaring back, thus avoiding the whole nose, face thing.

Please correct me if I’m wrong, thackney.

Bull.
When the Pretender in Chief took office gas in my parts was $1.87. We weren’t on the verge of global war then.
