So, hows all that hope and change working out for you? When I filled my gas tank this evening I noticed in Seattle, regular 89 octane gas at my local Shell station is going for $4.20/gal. I thought gas prices were suppose to go down after Labor Day!!!! Not here anyway. To fill my Dodge Caravan, it cost me $84.00. Now, when Bush was President, 89 octane regular gas was $1.50/gal. To fill my gas tank it cost around $30.00. To make matters worse, with Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bummer, the average annual income decreased by over $2,000, with food prices going through the ceiling, the highest in U.S. History. With Pres. Bush, unemployment was hitting around 5%, with O'bummer, it's almost 9% without counting all the millions that have stopped looking for work. More people are dependent and are on foodstamps then anytime in history.
So, I ask you again, how is all the hope and change working out for you?
Or, should that tried old slogan of his be: 'For Real Hope and Real Change, It's Jesus Christ and NOT Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bomma'.
"Critics of the administration are quick to note that when Barack Obama took office, gasoline prices were $1.95 a gallon. But they neglect to note the U.S. economy was in a virtual depression. For purposes of comparison, when President George W. Bush took office in 2001, gasoline sold for an average of $1.55 a gallon. In the summer of 2008, his last year in office, prices exceeded $4.25. In reality, presidents have little to do with near-term fluctuations in gas prices."

I wouldnt be so hard on Obama in regards to this issue, but Obama told everyone that high gas prices was a result of failed Presidential energy policies.. Why should we not hold him to standards he set?

Just a standard lie that both sides tell. They are responsible for the gas price when it is low and not responsible for the gas price when it is high when, in fact, the President doesn't control the price.

If you were paying in gold, you would have never seen an increase in the amount of gold you pay.
The OPEC nations are not stupid.
The Federal Reserve has caused the majority of the increase.

The only reason that gas prices fell at the very END of the Bush presidency was because of rapid worldwide fall in demand caused by a near depression that HE helped to create.
Just a standard lie that both sides tell. They are responsible for the gas price when it is low and not responsible for the gas price when it is high when, in fact, the President doesn't control the price.
I dont accept that its a standard lie, especially considering Obama has made so many failed attempts to drop it.. For example, going after the speculators, and releasing fuel from the federal reserves.. He has showed me time and time again that he doesnt know crap about the free market economy.
