		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Well, obviously, Venezuela and Saudi Arabia do not want to see our country destroyed — because then they couldn’t sell us their oil!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hey, Meximerica will buy their oil... and when they come here to visit, their language will be spoken!  Won&#039;t Obama be proud!</description>

I think this is the part of it you have wrong. I think Chavez is enough of a nutcase to want the United States destroyed because then we won&#039;t be opposing his ambitions. As for Saudi Arabia, well, we stand in the way of the worldwide Caliphate. Besides, they can always sell to communist China.</description>

PLUS without our demand the price of oil would go down.  

But yes, the Dems offer contradictory, and ultimately STUPID, reasons for not encouraging domestic drilling.</description>

		<description>All this was, was another prime example of the Liberals and Democrats doing what it is they do best: Operating from a knee-jerk reaction rather than functioning with a long term fix.

The problem is not supply.  All this little stunt did was demonstrate two things:

1. That Reid, Pelosi and the other Liberals and Dems truly do not understand what the problem is and why prices on the OPEN MARKET are so high and,

2. That this was a sad, pathetic attempt to garner votes in November by doing something completely meaningless, using the Reseve Oil for something that it is not meant to be or designed to be used for.  Their hopes was to possibly have and incredibly short term fix, hoping that there were just enough gullible idiots who don&#039;t know what the problem is to sway the votes.

Unfortunately any lowering that MIGHT have occurred with the release of said reserves, would have long evaporated by November, and actually might have had the OPPOSITE effect.

We do not need short term band-aids placed on a still festering and bleeding problem.  We need a long-term fix, such as opening up the coast, ANWR, and other oil rich areas in THIS country for exploration and drilling as well as making it fair and easier to build new refineries and actually allowing said refineries to be built.

The Liberals and Lefties ae always carping about how we must become self-reliant on oil and to get rid of all the foreign oil being imported, yet they do nothing else but make it impossible for that to happen, which only guarantees our dependance on oil from such places as Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and other countries who want nothing more than to see our country destroyed.</description>

		<description>In a way I saw the point of selling off the entire strategic petrolium reserve, but that time has now passed.
If we had sold when oil was at $145 a barrel, and then bought it back with oil at $125 a barrel, we would have made a $20 a barrel profit. At 700 million barrels that&#039;s $14 billion dollars. (sorry if I&#039;m the only one who thinks that&#039;s a big amount of money)

However, that time has passed. Drill now!!</description>

		<description>Democrats do a great many things that p*** me off, but there are few that get my blood boiling as much as trying to dip into the reserves for political expediency! They are not the &lt;i&gt;politically&lt;/i&gt; strategic petroleum reserves, they are there in case war, national emergency or an act of God cuts off our supply! Should we be cut off from foreign sources entirely, there is only enough to last the nation several months. 

And where is the media on this? Well, they&#039;re in Europe with their heads so far up Obama&#039;s *bleeep* they can count his teeth. But where they &lt;i&gt;should&lt;/i&gt; be is asking that vile, loathsome lying witch that runs the most unpopular congress in history what exactly she would do if suddenly, after she used up great quantities of our emergency reserves for her political gain, something horrible happened, and we needed that oil?

I really do detest that woman.</description>
