Biden blames Putin and US oil companies for the rising prices making Americans' lives miserable, but the TRUTH is that runaway inflation is his own fault - and a new chart decisively proves it, writes former restaurant empire CEO ANDY PUZDER

#3 The current strategic oil reserve holds 562 million barrels. That’s after Biden released 80 million barrels in two lots since being elected. He now plans to burn through another 180 million barrels (1m/day for six months). Not looking prudent to me. Most of the oil comes from US sources - light crude not heavy. So while this will make a negligible impact on gasoline use it’ll have no impact on diesel availability. As a reminder - diesel fuels tractors and the trucks for our supply chain

#4 the chart is of all-products, CPI. not oil prices

the increase in oil prices is partly Biden's fault but also various States that don't permit fracking, some countries that likewise prohibit fracking and also the supply chain problem which has reduced the availability of some of the products that are needed by oil drillers

#5 I thought the strategic oil reserve was for military use during times of war, not to help you save 20 cents a gallon to where ever you're going.

So PJB and the LSD's see no correlation between their Anti-il Reg's and directives.

"USSR OIL OK - USA OIL BAD Logic"

But why should we expect any logical thinking from them? Given they are OK with the murder of a full-gustation baby during its birth process, but just owning a firearm is evil to them.

#9 ^#6 That may be good logic, depending on your point of view. Deplete your enemy's strategic energy supply...

So now after complaining that Joe Biden is oppressing you by verbally criticizing Russia when it (checks today's mimeograph) executes civilians while fleeing, but you're all about defending Joe Biden's (and the Democratic Party's) last 30 years of bad economic decisions?

It's funny, you have to defend them the half the time they make the decisions to tear the US down and build Russia up, and then commence screeching when they pretend to oppose Russia for the sake of kayfabe.
