Nancy "Queen Bee" Pelosi thinks she is president - or maybe just her royal highness.  She is demanding that Bush open up the Strategic Oil Reserves.  Why?  She thinks it will lower prices.  How?  Increasing supply.

But this same person is dead set against opening up American oil reserves in the ground.  Which actually has a lot more "reserves" and in the end, could provide a lot more oil.  Why?  It will not help.  Yea right.

Of course the difference is a classic difference between a child and an adult.  Sucking on the teat of the strategic reserves has an immediate gratification effect, with no thought to the future.  Much like a child who wants their wants when they want them.  Drilling for more oil is a plan for the future needs.  And of course keeping prices high today also promotes investment and development of alternatives to oil (something that Pelosi apparently only pays lip service to).  In other words, acting like an adult.

But one thing we have learned about the worst congress in the history of this nation is that - 1) They are acting like petulant children and demanding their wants when they want them even when they conflict with their stated aims - 2) they do not beleive in the pap they feed their willing sycophants - 3) they have no energy plan and never have - 4) they want everything to be blamed on someone else "Johnny did it!".

Which is fine for 6 year olds, and those incapable of caring for themselves.  As we have seen, that appears to be most of the nation in their view.  However it is glaringly obvious that congress is the biggest child in the nation right now.  With no plans other than immediate gratification.  At the expense of the rest of the nation, their principals (I know that is an oxymoron in this case), their constituents, and the real children.

Just like a Veruca Salt - spoiled brats.
