Releasing oil from the strategic oil reserve to ease the pressure of rising gas prices is like me saying a fart will ease rising natural gas prices. "Obama reiterated his indifference towards American energy production by posing a series of half-truths which shirked his ongoing complicity in America’s slumping oil production." (http://www.thepelicanpost.or... ) He says he will allow drilling in the Gulf but then will not issue the necessary permits. Liberals set up road-block after road-block to building new refineries as well. Obama made his opinions about oil very clear during the campaign.
Why doesn't someone ask Obama how he can justify burning up so much oil on Air Force One as he make his world-wide golf tour and his jet-setting to keep up with the life-styles of the rich and famous.

Gas prices might have risen to historic levels during George W. Bush's second term, but no one is cutting President Barack Obama for the latest rise.
In 2008, gas rose to an average of about $3.75, though it was higher in California and Hawaii. Today, the average gas price per gallon is about $3.56 and climbing, once again higher in the Golden State and Aloha State. But whose fault is it?
Despite the unrest in oil-producing states such as Libya, Bahrain and Iraq, and the horrific oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, Sarah Palin places the blame all at Obama's feet. Palin says his drilling moratorium, anti-drilling regulations and elimination of tax incentives have all contributed to the rising gas prices.
"Despite the President’s strange assertions in his press conference last week, his Administration is not a passive observer to the trends that have inflated oil prices to dangerous levels," she wrote in a message on her Facebook page. "His war on domestic oil and gas exploration and production has caused us pain at the pump, endangered our already sluggish economic recovery, and threatened our national security."
The Obama administration, while citing unrest in the Middle East, especially in Libya, as the root of the rise in fuel prices, is considering releasing fuel from the nation's strategic reserves to help ease the pressure.

Ignore reality much.
"I firmly believe that, you know, if there was a magic wand to wave, I'd be waving it, of course," he said during a news conference. "I've repeatedly submitted proposals to help address these problems, yet time after time Congress chose to block them.""
