No Release of Oil Reserves

Any release would be outrageous. What part of "strategic" don't the dems understand? There is nothing to suggest that prices reflect a temporary shock. Demand for oil is high; production of oil is flat. Release from teh SPR will, at best, temporarily reduce those prices, only to see them bounce up again when the SPR is depleted (or we stop discharging from it). At that point, we'll be in a worse position to respond to a genuine shock, such as a blown up suez canal or something.
I love the Democratic position on gas prices:
"What are you doing Mr. president to keep gas prices low for working americans?"
Uh, trying to bring more domestic production into play, but being stymied by Democratic objections? Thanks, JFK. I know it's not your fault--you don't own any SUVs after all.

If a portion of the electorate weren't stupid, politicians would not spend time trying to blame the opposition for high gas prices.
