Yeah. As though he or anyone else could DO anything about
it! The article DISHONESTLY attempts to paint Obama with the
brush that only the MARKETS, and the THIEVES at the upper levels
of them, deserve.

You shouldn't have been a party to that by helping to disseminate
such ignorant swill.

Oil is a COMMODITY, and its price (which links directly to the price
of gas) is driven by the GREED of powerful people in the markets.
There is nothing that Obama or any other President can do about
that. It would take majority cooperation by Congress AT LEAST, to
even make a *dent* in that THIEVERY -- and even *then* it would
be almost impossible.

Nixon even tried price & wage controls -- and THAT failed abysmally.

Only if the BANDITS can be taken on EFFECTIVELY can this awful
situation be reversed.

And FAILING that, a double-dip recession -- AT LEAST! -- is very
likely inevitable. And imminent.

"When Obama took office, gas prices were averaging $1.80 a gallon.

"For decades, we’ve talked and talked about the need to end America’s
century-long addiction to fossil fuels."

"Slippery tactics: Obama declares war on oil
Calls to end 'fossil-fuel' subsidies, impose new tax...
"Should Obama succeed, the end result will be tantamount to imposing a new
tax on oil and natural gas production, with the outcome being that U.S.
energy consumers will see energy price increases," Corsi warned."

He tried to pass cap and trade, to make "electricity rates necessarily
skyrocket", and when Congress wouldn't do that, he sent the dogs of the EPA
to do it, through dictatorial regulations instead!

Obama stopped all offshore drilling after the BP spill, causing the layoff
of tens of thousands of gulf oil workers and the moving-away of large
numbers of our oil rigs, even though that was just one well out of about
16,000. Yet he's given billions to Brazil's Petrobras ( his friend George
Soros ) to drill in the same areas off our coast, then sell us the oil and
give the profits to his socialist friends south of our border!

"Any serious effort to reform the media system would have to be necessarily
part of a revolutionary program to overthrow the capitalist system itself.
Also, there is no real answer, but to remove, brick by brick, the
capitalist system itself, rebuilding the entire society on socialist
principles." - Robert McChesney, Obama FCC diversity czar.

CNBC’s John Harwood: "So could the (high) oil prices help us?"
Barack Obama: "I think that I would have preferred a gradual adjustment."

The average price of a gallon of gas has now doubled for middle income and
poor Americans.

How's that hopey changey thing working out for ya?"

The reason that Progressivism-Socialism-Communism always fail, is that you
eventually run out of other peoples' money.

Obama and the Democrats: continuing the "Progressive" socialist agenda of
borrowing, taxing and insanely spending the country into collapse and
global socialism, in a Cloward-Piven fashion.

To be a good democrat, you have to believe that businesses create
oppression and governments create prosperity.
