Clearing the Browser Tabs - Gas Woes Wednesday Edition

I can not for the life of me understand why this administration continues to deprive us of the chance to drill in our own soil for oil that belongs to us. With gas prices on a rocket sled toward $5 a gallon, it ought to be obvious that any real sign that we will take advantage of the vast resources in our possession could drive prices down quickly. George Bush proved that in 2008, when his executive order cause gas prices to drop about $2.50 in six months.

Of course, the President’s slavish devotion to the hokey religion of environmentalism might not be the only reason gas prices are so high. His hapless foreign policy could also be a cause.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist by any means, but can probably forgive me for thinking his incompetence might not be entire accidental.
