It isn't going to get that, and it's getting pushed back with each passing day. Putin's war machine is running out of gas, so much so that Russia has banned fuel exports. https://fortune.com/2023/09/22/russia-gasoline-diesel-export-ban-vladimir-putin-ukraine-war/ The long-range missiles that Biden has approved providing to Ukraine will be used to fock up Russian military equipment and supply lines in Crimea.

Hardcore troubadour 15,430 Posted September 23, 2023 In 2020 Iran exported 400k barrels of oil a day. Last year it was up to 2 million per day. See, Biden can impose the sanctions, but he can’t enforce them. The world pays him no mind. And Iran has more money for terrorism and oppression.

Hmm...did obama ever send drone bombers into the middle east? Obama embraced the US drone programme, overseeing more strikes in his first year than Bush carried out during his entire presidency. A total of 563 strikes, largely by drones, targeted Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen during Obama's two terms, compared to 57 strikes under Bush Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And 51% say that the US has already done enough to help Ukraine while 48% say it should do more. A poll conducted in the early days of the Russian invasion in late February 2022 found 62% who felt the US should have been doing more. When asked specifically about types of assistance the US could provide to Ukraine, there is broader support for help with intelligence gathering (63%) and military training (53%) than for providing weapons (43%), alongside very slim backing for US military forces to participate in combat operations (17%). President Joe Biden earns the approval of 45% of Americans for his handling of the situation in Ukraine. A similar 43% approve of how he is handling the US relationship with Russia.

Deplete means exhausted. The reserves are down, and a big part of the reason is to stablize gas prices. Gas prices came down, so you have to turn to the reserves to have something to whine about and blame liberals. If you were paying 50 cents for a gallon of gas, 100 percent employment in the oil patch and the strategic reserve filled to the max, you'd still find something to complain about and blame liberals. You've complained about high unemployement in the oil patch but were happy as a pig in slop to pay $1.50 at the pump. You can't have it all picture perfect everywhere all at once. And even if it were, you'd still find something to whine about and blame liberals, because whining is just part of the MAGAturd culture while the rest of us understand basic economics.
