The shortage happened during the summer of 2000, before the election, and the prices at the pump have
already dropped to around 1.50 by now.

"Consumer energy prices overall dropped 0.9 percent last month (June), though they were still up 11.3 percent for the year.

The cost of electricity jumped 3.8 percent last month (June) -- the largest increase on record. But natural gas prices were 5.6 percent less, the largest decline on record.
The cost of gasoline also dropped 2.6 percent, the best showing since March, when prices dropped 3.8 percent.

Motorists this summer have been getting a break at the gas pump after world crude oil prices eased and refiners rushed to fill "shortages" that developed during the spring."

just 6 months after GW started drilling to increase supplies which in turn lowered prices.

LOL.
