If all members of both houses agreed to pass emergency (for national security reasons) legislation lifting all bans on drilling and refining, to build refineries to get us up to capacity, and to begin developing nuclear, and other non-petroleum power plants, OPEC would have a Holy S-— moment realizing that we were about to pull THEIR economic rug out from under THEM. The stock market would improve by the next day. Gas prices would begin to tumble within days.
The President has proven over the last week that this would succeed. His mere mentioning of drilling has brought the price down some, though it is being ignored by the Leftist media.
Libs are claiming it came down because the chair of the Fed made a speech or something. That Bernanke guy?
