" 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."
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.
