By releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and temporarily waiving environmental regulations that force refiners to formulate a zillion different kinds of gasoline, the Bush administration has taken two major steps to offset Katrina's negative impact on energy supply, production and prices. Photo: Kroger gas station, Columbia Ave., Franklin, Tennessee, 8:30 p.m, Wednesday night. The Market Express station down the road had gas, but not the cheapest regular blend. The next station down the road, a Shell, had plenty of everything. Posted in Energy

"we're rather fortunate to have a president and a vice president who understand the oil bidness." Yeah, we caught quite the break on that one. Posted by: A. C.

Cox at September 1, 2005 10:02 AM"we're rather fortunate to have a president and a vice president who understand the oil bidness." Wow, who'd have guessed that oil would have come up in the nation running department? This is quite the coincidence. Posted by: Scotch at September 1, 2005 03:42 PMPost a comment
