Oh those devilish details. What does that report forget to mention? What is the other half of the truth they forgot to mention? There is not shortage of crude. There is a shortage of working transport factilities and a shortage of working refineries. But that is alright. You don't know this. Therefore George Jr looks smart. And making George Jr look good is the important point. So we open the strategic oil reserve.
