But he will surely take credit for anything good during a campaign season and the swooners will squalk like they are told. Hell these folks think a six trillion increase in the US debt while their leader has been in office is a decrease somehow. I guess because they are told so and they can't add or something. lol

Actually I hadn't noticed the gas prices falling. It's around 3.35 where I live, 3.68 according to the link I posted earlier. I guess nobody notices much when its above 3 bucks a gallon at least I don't. I put in $25 bucks every time I stop for gas so don't pay attention to little shifts up and down like swooners do I guess.

And under Bush.... Gas prices were over $4 a gallon.... gas prices go up and down under any President...... we may NEVER see $1.60 a gallon again but that is NOT our Presidents fault.

And there are idiots in the USA who think that bringing back Bush doctrines will not sink the Country again. Obama is doing a good job getting us out of the HUGE hole that the Bush and Republican administration got us into.... we must NOT forget or go there again and that is what a Romney administration... or should i say Bush third term, would do.

Well most of the liberal posters here were claiming he had nothing to do with the increase...so how can he have anything to do with the decrease now? The real reason behind the drop in pennies per gallon is most people are not driving as much and demand is down, down down.

So $3.60 cents is a good price for a gallon of gas. That is high!! Some places in the nation is still $4 a gallon.

I remember when they talked about crude going over 30 dollars a barrel.. now it is three times that much.

Filling a 24 gallon tank is not cheap at $3.60. 86 bucks a fill.
