2. The freedom of coal companies to spew large amounts of particulate pollution into the atmosphere. Obama's EPA is forcing many energy companies to close down old coal plants that don't have modern scrubber systems or convert them to cleaner (and more efficient) natural gas.
3. The freedom to pay higher taxes. I'm a middle income earner and my marginal tax rate has not changed under Obama. He has kept his promise that he will not raise taxes on people making less than $250,000
4. The freedom to pay higher energy costs in my home. My gas bill has never been lower because of the falling price of natural gas.
As you can see, we have lost a lot of freedoms under Obama. He is a ruthless dictator. Vote Romney in 2012.

Take another swig of the kool aid and relax
Here is what you really lost-
1. Obamacare- the freedom for an individual citizen to decide whether or not he or she wants to purchase a product, in spite of the wished of the government.
2. The freedom of individuals, and corporations, to pursue mineral rights on property they own. As a result, energy prices have increased under the Obama administration (as coal accounts for over 50% of US electricity production) and have resulted in increased utility bills for nearly all Americans. The inability to drill on US property has resulted in increases in US gas prices as well.
3. The freedom to pay higher taxes. Obama has rewarded you with this desire. Due to Obama policies, states have increased thier tax burden on US citizens with regard to income taxes and property taxes to make up for the shortfall in revenues, due to reduced economic activity under Obama. Further, US businesses are shifting healthcare "benefits" to the state (if Obamacare goes through), increasing US tax burden. Obama wants to make you a tax slave.
4. Gas prices fluctuate more than the weather. Obama has policies in place which will cause ALL ENERGY PRICES (gas included) to escalate. In his own words, "electricity prices will necessarily skyrocket". Any fool knows that when you reduce the supply of gas, coal, nuclear and oil, energy prices will escalate. Obama is the enemy of energy in his oppostion to
1. domestic onshore and offshore drilling
2. oil shale development
3. fracking for oil and natural gas
4. banning of offshore oil drilling
5. closing US refineries
6. opposition to Keystone pipeline
Don't make yourself look ridiculous. Obama is an anti-energy, anti-business president who is more concerned with gay marriage than seeing the US strong again economically. As a result, he is an enemy of the US worker, who suffers unparalleled unemployment based on his radical policies.
Help the US worker and the nation- dump Obama- enemy of the people
