So, according to
a piece in Reuters, George W. Bush said:
_____
...there was no quick fix to lowering record fuel prices and that oil in the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve should be saved for supply emergencies._____
Would an airstrike on Iran interrupt supply long enough to constitute a "supply emergency" -- and could that be why
there's such a push for more oil-drilling offshore and in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge?
How long would it take from the time the ink dries to the time the first rigs would be able to start pumping oil out of the ground? ...and would the Strategic Oil Reserve hold us over until then?
If so -- even if only
just so -- then perhaps we have yet another piece in place for the games masters to edge closer toward their goal of
one more strategic bombing campaign...
This is an Open Thread.
