Oh we blame mr obam alright. It's just this isn't being reported on by the mainstream press because of their own biases. Damn shame we have a free press in this country that simply cannot be trusted because of their known biases. Thank god for the internet or none of us would have any idea what was actually happening in the country.

Bush made his Saudi oil princes rich and Obama is making them even richer. Obama just one ups Bush in everything he did. The bailouts, troop deployment, gouging the middle class, deficit spending, you name it. Bush 3, thy name is Obama.
Although I have to wonder if this isn't just one big conspiracy to wreck the world economy by making middle eastern countries collapse into anarchy and moslem fanaticism and be unrestrained by global business interests.

This is an old and basic belief in many people - that the wealthy are deserving of rule. That is not my belief and is un-American...
So you are a liberal. Why do you support class warfare? That is an old and basic belief of Marxists. That is not my belief and it is truly un-American.

Have you thought about finding a forum where you can bash Obama without hiding behind an issue like oil prices? That would help free up this thread.
I cannot have discourse with plutocrats, socialists, racists, or dodgers.

You like things simple, eh? Got a dictionary (other than the Limbaugh rewrite)? Every home should have one (they're cheap). I am moderate in my beliefs. I am anti-plutocracy and pro-democracy. This is a problem for you? Class warfare is what liberals are against. You might stop listening to Fox and use the brain God gave you.

Yet you were the one who first made the reference to class, showing your true colors as a liberal, not a moderate. Only Marxists believe in classes, pitting one against the other. Normal, rational, people comprehend that class is transitory. Someone who is rich today may be poor tomorrow, and vise versa. You clearly do not fall into that category.

So only Marxist believe in classes, yet people who believe that the classes exist but are transitory, but yet do in fact exist, are normal, sane, and rational.

This logic escapes me. So thus are you suggesting that normal, sane and rational people are Marxist?

Niceeeeeeee.

Did Limbaugh tell you we had a classless society until Obama came along? I know that's the Fox shtick.
You like to talk but don't read posts much. Did I say I believe in Democracy? How does democracy equate to marxism in your mind? Like I said, dictionaries are cheap!

It is $3.59 today. One benefit is it makes buffoons out of the enemies of mass transit who say it is evil and people like you don't ride it.

Question Why do liberals scream about $5 birth control pills but not $5/gallon gasoline?

If $5 for birth control pills is such a terrible burden for sexually active women to bear, then surely $5/gallon gasoline is an even worse burden for all working Americans. Yet we never hear liberals screaming about $5 gasoline, only $5 birth control pills. In fact, unlike with birth control, when it comes to gasoline prices, liberals demand that we change our lifestyle to accommodate higher gas prices, yet if we ask women to change their lifestyle to accommodate the cost of birth control, liberals scream that we're a bunch of sexists. If women don't have to pay $5 for birth control, why should I have to pay $5 for gasoline? They need birth control to fornicate? Well I need gasoline for my car.

Liberals demand that I buy an Obama motors electric car, move closer to my workplace, use mass transit, etc. to cope with gas prices yet they have no problem with government funded birth control so women can fornicate freely. Why shouldn't the government pay for the gas that goes into my car. Or if not the government, why shouldn't my auto insurance be required to pay for my gasoline? You say because auto insurance is for injuries and property damage not gasoline. Well health insurance is for injuries and illnesses not for recreational purposes. So if taxpayers have to pay for women's contraception, it's only fair that they also pay for gasoline in my car.
