Price of Gasoline Skyrockets Under Obama

One of the first orders of business passed by the One and the obamunists in the 111th CONgress was to ban domestic exploration and production.. The One and his co-conspirators are diluting the dollar so much that that real oil prices can remain steady or decline, but our costs will go up because of the value of our dollar is being wrung out. I figure we’ll long for the “good old days” when we were paying $5.00 per gallon. Like electricity, it will “necessarily skyrocket.” By the time there finished with us Winston, there’ll be nothing left of us but sorrow for what we’ve done; And, love for Big Brother. It’s so touching to see our love for Big brother.

The communists that have taken over our country have more respect for those that hate us, than the people that elected them.

*Sarcasm on*

Oh come on folks. We all know the REAL reason that oil is going up.
It is because we’re in Iraq for the oil! And we all know that Obama did not pull the troops out as he said pre-election. And we know he is just continuing Bush’s oil policies and lining his pockets.

*Sarcasm off*

I am really afraid for our country.

Anybody think the price spike is related to Obama Motors’ clown cars? That is one way to force people to buy those tin cans on wheels the government wants to mandate.

Ummm frank, it being summer isn’t the reason. Try again genius.

Oh, that’s the “correct” question, Mike? I’d didn’t know you were a prophet.

If you want to forsake speculation and know how gas prices look to the public simply goggle search ’skyrocket’ and ‘gas prices’ and you will find Bush tied at the pump and public’s attention.

Otherwise, all the rest is your own petroleum speculation.

…”correct question”, “more important question”, or just another way to evade the subject of Mike’s post, where did gas prices really skyrocket: Obama, or more accurately, under Bush.

@Mike

How about the sub-prime mortgage fiasco that was allowed to develop over the last 15 years?

@Mike
If the Republicans controlled Congress from 1994 to 2006 – 12 years then how can the Dem shoot it down if the Republicans can simply out vote and ensure the housing bubble didn’t happen?

@Mike

Can you point to the specific thread? I like to see the hard evidence (in terms of votes and procedures where Dems killed reform) rather than who said what.

@Missy
Did the Dems have a super, filibuster proof, senate majority when the price of Gasoline spiked to twice the cost that it is now last year? And is it the case that Dems persuade some Republicans to vote with them but the Republicans can’t do this with wayward Dems?

@GaffaUK:

Little more to it, the Senate is supposed to slow down, ponder, if you will, what comes through the House, vote on the issue and eventually sit down with members of the House and reconcile, combine the two bills into one. Amendments are added prior to reconciliation, some succeed, some are stricken, many have nothing to do with the law being enacted.

Inregards to gas prices, it was Pelosi’s/Dems campaign promise to lower gas prices. Instead, they knocked off any new drilling off the coasts even though the moratorium is no longer in effect and cut drilling acreage within the western states. We have operational capped wells off the coast of California that would help trim some of that states $25 billion deficit. See where the dems are going?

Persuading Repubs, that’s what I was getting at in my other response. Democrats did not fare so well during the stimulus vote, especially in the House. We still had the three in the Senate that went with the dems. Snowe, Collins and Specter.
