Is that what the left wing media is emphasizing. When Obama came into office gas was $1.80 a gallon. I guess they don't mention that fact. Only that it dropped a penny this week. lol
Man, you people don't even realize that every time you put something out there in defense of your god its so easily shot down with the truth. The only time you believe anything is if MSM tells you so. Your a follower.
This conversation is over. Your tin hat conspiracy theory of the left wing media and blaming Obama for gas prices tells me that you are a whack job.
Take care. Have fun in your lalalalala-land.
p.s. It is becoming painful watching RWNJ descend into accusations that FRED, BLS, CPBB, CBO, Nate Silver, and other valid sources of data are the long arm of a liberal media that wishes to subvert society for an evil cause.
The accusations by RWNJ are just becoming more outlandish by the day. Then again, what does one expect from someone who does not believe in evidence, but has to resort to conspiracy theories to make their case?
It is amusing watching you lie. Do you lie often, and then turn around and blame others?
1. I never said that tax revenues went down under Bush.
2. Bush took office in 2001, not in 2000. We need to look at data from 2001 to 2008. Tax revenues hardly increased, despite a long period of economic growth.
3. If Republicans never cut taxes in the first place since they were afraid that we were going to balance the budget, then tax revenues would be much higher, and our financial problems would be much less severe.
This idea that we need to explode deficits during times of economic growth and contract deficits during economic downturns is pure insanity.
OK fine, we'll use your preferred years. Revenue was $2.215.3 trillion in 2001, $2288.1 in 2008. Not exactly a sea change due to the Bush tax RATE cuts, n'est ce pas?
So, before the sequester even starts, Obama tells ICE to release all the criminal illegal aliens back into the population????
This makes absolutely no sense what so ever.
Judge sentenced criminals, to be set free. He is begging to be removed from office.
Ben Bernanke who knows a lot more about the fiscal situation of the nation than either you or I, testified to Congress yesterday that the looming spending cuts will have an adverse effect on the economy, and compromise the fragile recovery that is taking place.

And theeeeeere is the set up for the great blame game ahead. Obama knows that his tax hike will hurt the economy so he and his cronies are setting up using sequestration as a way to blame instead of Obama increasing taxes.
OBAMA WANTS SEQUESTRATION. He said he would veto any attempt to stop it.

lol, I'm shocked I disagree with you and you didn't resort to the usual racist attack lol. Man you are slipping.
But since I reminded you... some leftie will check in and do it for you.
I find it amusing that you blame Clinton for Bush's mess, but then want to write off Bush's mess when talking about Obama.
I don't care much for Clinton, Bush, or Obama. I don't play a team sport. However, I have no problem pointing out your inconsistencies. For instance, you claimed that Bush inherited "a dot-com NASDAQ collapse that lowered revenues and increased tax write offs."
Sorry, but Obama inherited a much worse situation then Bush. At least after the dot-com bubble, there was still some substance left - advancements in telecommunication, computers, software, etc. At least during the dot com bubble we invested into America, which cannot be said about the housing bubble.
Citibank would settle the case, with $950,000 going to the lawyers, including Obama. But it gave only $20,000 to each of the three named plaintiffs, and included $360,000 in benefits to be divided among the 183 other clients. Their portion of the settlement was not in cash, but in coupons. About half of the 186 African-American clients in Obama's lawsuit have since gone bankrupt or received foreclosure notices.

Try again.
Obama caused the sub-prime housing bubble back in '95 - even before Al Gore invented the internet???
Seriously, the stupidity that comes out of these people is amazing.
