It'll be his fault the price will be going up (supply), and also his fault it's not going up higher (economy).

Tough to win under those rules.

Some even boldly predicted it would be up to $5 a gallon very soon, as if they were hoping that would soon be the case.

I am curious, since Obama was solely responsible (in your eyes) for the rising cost of gasoline a few months ago, are the Wing-Nuts planning to give the Prez a high-five for lowering the costs?

As for me, I am not naive enough to believe that he has much control either way. But you guys love to criticize Obama, thus I decided I would give you an opportunity to give the Prez a job well done for lowering the cost of gasoline!

No thanks are necessary, just a simple job well done to the Prez will suffice!

About 90% of the criticism lodged against Odumbo was turn-about criticism based on what Odumbo and Pelosi lodged against W. If you want to start listing hypocrites, Odumbo and Pelosi hold first and second place.

Has anyone other than me noticed that not one of the Right Wing Nuts has offered any praise for the President for the lower cost of gasoline even though at least a few of our highly partisan hacks were lambasting him a few months ago when the price was rising.

Yeah, right after you find and post where Odumbo and Pelosi praised W for getting gas prices down below $2.00 per gallon in late 2008.

I remember driving To Yellowstone/Grand Teton during the summer of 2008 and clearly recall paying over $4 a gallon for gasoline. The $2 a gallon gasoline prices must have been during or after GW's economic policies caused the stock market to crash on September 15, 2008.

I do not believe W deserves much praise for bringing about the worst economic conditions in America since the Great Depression!

You obviously couldn't find a quote from either Odumbo or Pelosi thanking W for the gift of lower gas prices at inauguration, could you, Big Turd? The national average price for unleaded hit $1.989 around 21 November 2008. And deflect as you might try, Big Turd, you cannot separate Slick Willie and the Dimocrat Congressional delegation from the housing bust. Their fingerprints are all over it.

I am not trying to deflect anything. I merely stated I paid over $4 a gallon for gasoline during the summer of 2008 while on a trip to Yellowstone National Park. That is a fact!

I further stated that GW's economic policies led this country into the worst economic conditions in America since the Great Depression. The exact date the stock market crashed was September 15, 2008, 7 1/2+ years after GW took office and Clinton left office. Those are also facts!

Those are the facts and quite frankly the facts are indisputable!

First off, let me say what an asshole you are. You continue to mischaracterize statements made by those you envy and disagree with.
That being said, you demand to display your ignorance of the most obvious facts.

Tuning your car and keeping your tires at the correct pressure will save gas, period. Multiply that by 100 million you fucking moron!

Nothing you say or the number of dicks you swallow will change that.

What other bullshit will exit your mouth now?

It's fun to watch the Obamatons go on overload! Libs say the damnedest things!

Hey Tex. When you squeeze a douche bag like he b sucking, if you expect anything other than shitty water, you'll disapointed time and again.

He is a "negger" and will never be anything else.

A negger is someone who looks only for negative information regardless of it's source.
cog would be an example of a "negger lover".

More deflection from Big Turd. Big Turd, you obviously couldn't find a quote from either Odumbo or Pelosi thanking W for the gift of lower gas prices at inauguration. The national average price for unleaded hit $1.989 around 21 November 2008. http://money.cnn.com/2008/11/21/news..._gas/index.htm

As you say, Big Turd, "Those are the facts and they are indisputable!"

Big Turd, you cannot separate Slick Willie and the Dimocrat Congressional delegation from the housing bust. Their fingerprints are all over the whole stinking mess. Glass-Steagall was torpedoed with Slick Willie's signature.
