Politicians have argued over
who should bear the blame for
the rise in gas prices, now more
than $2 a gallon.
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., and
others favor pressuring the
Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries, which cut
production in March and April,
to boost its output to meet
demand. Others want to use the
Strategic Petroleum Reserve, an
idea Kerry has not endorsed.
Kerry has said that new contribu-
, tions to the reserve should be
slowed to ease petroleum sup-
plies.
“Once again, the president is
making excuses instead of actu-
ally coming up with a plan to
deal with the gas price crisis that
is roiling the American econo-
my,” Kerry campaign spokesman
Phil Singer said. “The fact is that
his energy bill doesn’t lower gas
prices, does little to solve our
long-term energy problems and
fails to end the country’s reliance
on Middle Eastern oil.”
The White House has insisted
there are no plans to tap the I
reserve, which was created for
emergencies.
“We will not play politics”
with the stockpile, Bush said.
“That petroleum reserve is in
place in case .of major disrup-
tions of energy supplies to the
United States” he said. “The
idea of emptying the Strategic
Petroleum Reserve would put
America in a dangerous position
in the war on terror. We’re at war.
