" Obama's campaign said Monday that Obama is going to ask that the strategic petroleum reserves be tapped. He's expected to ask for a "swap" of light crude for heavy crude with the heavy crude to be "replaced at a later date so that we can get oil into the market," the campaign said on a conference call.

Obama last month said he did not think the country should use the strategic oil reserves "at this point."

"I have said and, in fact, supported a congressional resolution that said we should suspend putting more oil into the strategic oil reserve, but the strategic oil reserve I think has to be reserved for a genuine emergency," he said on July 7."

Uh huh. Interesting.

My brother started a Conservative Club at his Community College about 4 years ago. One of their first "fundraisers" were FlapJacks and rubber Flip-Flops :)

I know this is kind of an "aside" to this, but I don't understand McCain's people mocking Obama for getting ideas out to people as to what they can do to reduce costs for themselves.

Those of us who have lived through the windfall profits tax of the past know how this chapter plays out.
