He Said It! (Strategic Petroleum Reserve)
Republican National Committee ^ | May 18, 2004

Posted on 05/19/2004 3:08:05 PM PDT by RWR8189


Without being specific, Kerry, a key member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, suggested the US could retaliate economically in other trade areas. He also said he does not want a release of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. A release 'is not relevant. It would take months for the oil to get to the market,' he said.” (Cathy Landry, "US Energy Chief Warns Of Gasoline Crisis," Platt's Oilgram News, 2/17/00)

What h e means is he voted against it, before he voted for it for pure political gain. In other words, he has no backbone and no morals to fall back on in hard times, only polls.

Schumer aka Hillary's boot licker has been screaming for oil to be released from the reserve.

Mr. Kerry: There's a call for you on line one.

They will have to have three podiums: one for Bush and two for Kerry. Bush can just sit back and watch Kerry debate himself.

For the Presidential debates, they will have to have three podiums: one for Bush and two for Kerry. Bush can just stand back and watch Kerry debate himself.

Go fix dinner, Sam.

And Kerry wants Bush to jawbone the Saudis, but when Bush did Kerry complained the Saudis were only trying to help Bush win the election. That story dies, and Kerry complains that Bush isn't jawboning the Saudis.

And he still doesn't want to allow drilling.

What has happened to politics?

I guess that was dated yesterday... I thought that I heard him say Bush SHOULD release oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve....

Gasoline prices have become part of the U.S. presidential campaign. Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, the Democratic candidate, has called on President George W. Bush to release oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and simplify gasoline regulations.

"As recently as February (2000), the vice president(Gore) admitted that tapping the Strategic Petroleum Reserve would not significantly affect fuel prices," NTU said. (SATURDAY
