^When Obama took office gasoline cost 1.83 a gallon, now it's 3.50 a gallon. That's a 90% increase. As I recall, one of the most effective lies the liberal left dreamed up and used to denigrate George W during his administration was in saying he was in bed with the oil companies. The story went that this collaboration between George W and big oil, resulted in the price of gas being held artificially high. The allegation went on to impune the Rich Republicans for illegally helping their Rich buddies in the Texas oil business to make underserved windfall profits from the defenseless American public. BTW, in case you're wondering gas prices when W came to office were 1.30 a gallon. That's an increase of 50 cents in eight years. I've seen gas go up more than 50 cents in one day since Obama came to power.

Now, not only is the White House standing in the way of much needed oil exploration, they officially blocked the Canadian Pipeline indefinitely. Thusly denying the citizens of this country fuel for the present and the future. And 130,000 jobs we desperately need. Without question, policies such as these have been the catalyst for the spike in gasoline prices. I hope I'm wrong, but, I would almost bet if Iran does try to close the Stait of Hormuz, we will back down. All these things together will curb EVERYBODY'S travel habits save for the rich. Prices for everything we use from groceries to toothpaste will go up proportionately. Where is the outrage?

The real devil in the details of course is the not so secretive, liberal green agenda operatives. The present administration has been busy putting in Czars in charge of vital positions of contol. They have their hands in the EPA and ALL agencies that regulate the utility and fuel industries, for that matter. Surely people can look past politics long enough to see the world closing in around us. This hasn't much to do with politics anyway IMO. It's about control. America is being fundamentally transformed, just as promised. A good line from a movie I once saw says this, "some things change and some things don't." One thing that does not is the law of supply and demand. The less gas we have the higher it will go, conversely, the more gas we have the lower it will go. Want to be CONTROLLED? Vote the dems back in and you will be.

God have mercy. Your a bloody idiot. IT was a $1.80 maybe the last little bit of his presidency. What was it when he took office? And how high did it reach? Give us a break with your far right lies.
