0bama Throttling The Economy With Gas Price Manipulation
« on: February 29, 2012, 12:54:03 PM »
We've all heard the song and dance. That it's not the president's fault that gas prices are high and he can't do anything about it anyway. Bullsh!t. He most certainly can have an influence on gasoline prices if he chooses to do so. He could allow access to domestic oil and gas reserves yet he chooses not to. He could have supported the Keystone pipeline yet he chose to kill it.

This president chooses not to do so. As usual with this guy, he has said one thing and done another.

Stephen Chu, 0bama's energy secretary is on record (2008) saying “Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe.”

Chu, when pressed by Congressman Alan Nunnelee on whether or not the 0bama administration is willing to work toward reducing the cost of gasoline at the pump~

Like everyone else I am no fan of high gas prices and this household is certainly feeling the pinch at the pump. My wife and I are presently spending over $500 per month to fuel our two vehicles. There is no polite way to sugar coat that, it #@&*ing hurts, period. Despite pleas from the Donk herd in both the House and Senate to tap the strategic reserve and offer some relief in an election year Lord Zero will hear none of that. Therein lies the silver lining, if there is one to be found in any of this. 0bama is ignoring them and this can only serve to help oust as many of them as possible at the ballot box come NO-vember.

I'm against tapping into the Strategic Petroleum Reserves.  They were not meant to be used for political purposes.

True and I agree....but democrat presidents have done it before and then a Republican one has to refill it.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Allow me to clarify. I wasn't referring to our strategic reserves. I meant our own oil and natural gas right here under our own feet in the lower 48, in Alaska and offshore. Lord Zero will not permit further domestic production.

This seems to be a good owebuma theme song...
