Hypocritical on grand standing at a gas station about lowering gas prices.

etc etc
At what time in history has any elected official been truthful and fair to all? On another note we as citizens just do not have all the data in front of us as the decision makers so a lie to one person can be a adjustment of policy after more information comes forward. I say Left or Right they both have their own agenda.

Yes politicians lie, Obama is a politician.

In this case, the president was straight up lying or he has a severely poor memory. He deliberately misuses the term "proven oil reserve" even after it was brought up to him, so he can distort reality to his political viewpoint.

Why is Obama Lying About US Oil Reserves?

President Obama also has argued that increasing supply does bring down the price and that it does not bring down the price.

From the Pubs' standpoint, gas prices are falling because Romney's flip-flopping on immigration reform. Yeah, that must be what's doing it.

because the price of gasoline is not below $1.80 a gallon. it is still way above that. here where I live it is almost $3.70 a gallon.

let me know when gas hits $1.49 a gallon or less before November and I will attribute it to obama, until then pbo can suck an egg.

Does this mean you're no longer supporting Obama?
