Now that gas prices are falling why are the people who were blaming Obama for the gas prices rising not on here now praising him for bringing the gas prices down???????????????
Possibly because his devotees kept insisting that rising gas prices were not Nobamas' fault now agree that them coming down is not due to his actions?
Obama's only responsible when bad things happen. When things go well, crickets.
Actually, according to Nobamas' history, you have that backwards. He takes any credit he can when things go right, blames anyone and everyone else when things go bad.
Spell it however you want it didn't work and the green jobs never came no matter how much you scream about it. 4.5 million to boot that you just touted makes you look like, yes, a fool. Recovery.gov reports only 162K jobs. You are screaming about 4.5 million. Feel like a fool yet? lol
Kind of like when this administration made the claims of all those "saved or created" jobs in attempting to claim credit. Anyone have one of those saved or created jobs that the government had anything to do with (excepting being hired by the government)?
Just thought all the righties were so quick in blaming him for gas prices going up so now i;m wondering what the logic would be at declining gas prices.
How about they are lowering (in some areas) in spite of his actions?
Don't people realize that heads of state are figure heads and have no real power to speak of.?There are tacit committees that run things- The president is just the mouth piece...kind of like a lawyer or devil's advocate.
Gas prices were at historic highs in late 2008, and then fell quickly as the world anticipated Bush's departure from the White House. Due to explosion in demand in China and India, we will never see $1.60 gas again.

That's true. If one is going to blame Obama for high gas prices then Obama should get credit for record low natural gas prices -- which you never hear the right wing doing.
Bush wasn't directly responsible for $4.50 gas prices nor the low $1.61 prices, either.
He also did not attempt to take credit for the low or assign blame for the high. See the fallacy of your statement?
Come on, don't expect emotional ignorant people to not be hypocrites.
Well, that explains some of the liberal posting here
