Yesterday I wasted a chunk of time watching the president’s press conference on the raising gas prices. I came away with just one question, does this guy have a clue of what he is saying? He said the the high price was hurting Americans, which was a very observant of him. As with most of his recent press conferences, it is the fault of the Democrats in Congress.
They are blocking the domestic oil exploration and blocking the building of refineries. Basically, ANWR needs to be opened and environmental restrictions need to be eliminated so that refineries can be built. Now, are nay of you buy this bovine fecal matter? If so, that morphine drip you are on is doing its job.
Does anyone really think that if oil companies could explore in ANWR would bring the gas prices down? These companies are making obscene profits, investors are happy, so where would the incentive be to lower gas prices?
So, to blame America’s dependence on gas on the Democrats, is just about one of the dumbest things this president has ever said and there have been many to choose from in the past.
