This article from The LA times discusses President Obama's stance on rising gas prices in the country. Obama does not plan on releasing oil from U.S reserves right now, however, he said he would consider it at a certain point, refusing to say when that point is. The president is confident we can fill any gaps in the nations fuel supply as a result of the current unrest in the Middle East. The article mentioned that Obama is under attack from Republicans, who say that he has done very little to help the production of oil in the country. I thought the article did a great job of showing Obama's side of things and making him look good in general. The headline, "After Japan quake, Obama holds firm on oil reserves and drilling"is already pretty kind to Obama. While the article provided quotes from the president defending himself, it did not quote a single Republican attacking Obama. To me, this is clearly unfair. Also, the article mentions that the president is under attack from Republicans as if everyone else is in support of him. I think many people, not only Republicans, are upset with Obama.
