I would like to add that Bush keeps buying oil for the National Petroleum Reserve even though the purchases of about 700,000 barrels a day are one of the chief reasons that oil is so high. Just a drop of 700,000 barrels a day might or probably would tip the price of oil down by 10% or more as oil demand is just a little bit over supply right now. Of course the other things like getting new and tougher gas mileage standards in place and placing standards on pickup trucks are important over the longer run. (not to mention many other things that GWB seems incapable of understanding)
