    Last summer, they all said gas prices were a direct affect of Bush having pissed off the middle east at us...

    And this year, it's "Oh, the President doesn't have anything to do with gas prices."

    I mean, can liberals hear themselves? Seriously.

    demand is low, because of the recession. Our supply situation is not getting any better, what with drilling bans.

    The economy is going to have a difficult recovery, because when it starts to recover, inflation will drive the cost of fuel out of sight, and also interest rates will skyrocket (massive govt.debt).

    High cost energy is part of Obama's plan. Notice the "free" carbon credits that are being used in an attempt to bribe congressmen into signing on to "cap &trade" include very few to the refiners. Obama has pledged to bankrupt coal fired electrical generation.

    Energy = prosperity. Impoverished people vote for the party offering handouts. Roosevelt got elected four times by extending the depression for a decade

    All i know is that when gas prices reached over 4 dollars a gallon, Obama did not complain, its as if this is what Obama wants.

    You may not have been old enough to pay for gas when bush was President, but the price per gallon now, is lower than it was before the election. Proof once again, that facts are like kryptonite to a republican!

    He's got to get the price up to help with the new Government Motors Roller Skates that we are supposed to want to buy. Gotta get gas up to over $8 to make us give up our Chinese Hummers.

    Barrack likes high gas prices. If you listen during the campaign he said so, only he wants a slow rise in prices

    The day traders on the stock market are driving up the price. The only way we can fix it ... is taking it out of the control of the day traders. Obama has nothing to do with the price of oil.

    Obama will forever carry his free pass. And this.
