The Height of Folly

Is Nancy Pelosi nuts? This folly of asking the President to release oil from the national reserve is just crazy. What if we need it for the purpose for which it was intended? A national emergency. We would have to replace that oil with HIGHER priced oil. Again, nuts! As a nation we would just spend even more. Besides, although it HURTS and our economy is suffering, we'd better just suck it up and get used to the higher oil prices. They're going to fluctuate, but I don't think they are ever going down really low again. Even at $4 a gallon, we are paying far less than the rest of the world and using more of the world's oil. Oil is not going to be cheap, ever again. Using foolish measures to try to lower the price is just throwing money away.
