I think releasing 50 million barrels of oil from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which is our national emergency oil savings account, won\u2019t make any difference in the price of gas.<\/p>\n<p>As you pointed out, America consumes about 20 million barrels of oil a day, so that\u2019s two-and-a-half days. That\u2019s why shortly after the president\u2019s announcement, oil futures actually went up, not down. So we are going backwards here.<\/p>\n<p>Number two, I think that one of the differences between people and dogs is that dogs would never allow the weakest or the dumbest to lead the pack. President Biden\u2019s energy policy is both weak and dumb. He and his woke friends have eliminated, terminated, ended America\u2019s hard-fought energy independence, and here\u2019s their new policy. Let\u2019s force America to buy oil from foreign countries that hate us so those foreign countries will have money to buy weapons to try to kill us.<\/p>\n<p>There is just one problem. Those foreign countries \u2014 OPEC, Russia \u2014 are not increasing their oil production at any price, at any price. And that\u2019s the main reason that you see gas prices going up. I guess another way of putting it is the reason gas prices are going up is because of the oil is in Louisiana and Texas, and the dipsticks are in Washington, D.C. I read that somewhere, and it seemed appropriate.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Follow Jeff Poor on Twitter <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/jeff_poor\">@jeff_poor<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuesday on FNC\u2019s \u201cThe Ingraham Angle,\u201d Sen.
