gasoline prices went UP this week in northern California....
Haven't I been hearing that petroleum prices are going down, and there's a gas glut in the U.S.? Or am I mistaken?

Anyway, gasoline prices ROSE again last week in my northern California community: regular unleaded is $4.599 at most local stations. Up from $4.499 where it had been pegged for the last month or so. Groan....

You voted for all this. Deal with it.

I think it's great that the lunatics in California have all that clean, crisp, pristine air quality, and it only costs them an extra thirty bucks a fillup.

I don't know about you GOBUCKS, but I absolutely love the smell of diesel and gasoline fuel.  Some of the gas stations around here have those little condom things on the pump nozzles, to trap the fumes.  When I am filling up, I always pull the nozzle out just enough that I can see the vapors going up into the atmosphere and I can get a good whiff.

Oh come on, DUmmie, that's not expensive at all.  Obama's crew doesn't mind if it's $9/gallon.  You are actually getting a really great deal.

I remember when the strong odors around manufacturing and chemical plants were called the smell of money.

Thanks to the nuts in the democrat party, a lot of those plants, and their odors, are overseas now.

     He's a hippie throwback college professor in Humboldt, CA. I don't see why he needs gas money when there's nowhere to go there.

He was probably trying to drive to the coast to try to get in on the four tons of weed they found floating in the Pacific earlier today:

Liberalism allows you to take any side of any argument at any time to ensure you're always right.

CA has a lot of exotic rules that don't exist everywhere else (Or at least not as strongly) requiring seasonal changes to various complex and expensive chemical additives to the gas sold there, which probably has something to do with it, since it adds a lot more expense over and above the oil price and the cost of simply refining the fractions.

Enjoy your frickin' Leftist paradise, asshole.

Obama said that under his policies, energy prices would rise, and you voted for him you stupid moron. Of course you will vote for him again, at which will show that you are beyond stupid.

Have fun with that, Mike.

Koimrades here in the socialist paradise of the People Republic of Kalifornia gas is at $4.55 for regular at the cheapest station. For some reason as the price of oil and gasoline through out the country went down, ours went up and it was glorious. My guess is that our leaders have imposed new diktat for tax to gasoline which is killing earth. Our future is going to be glorious, GLORIOUS!

$3.629 here in Cow Hampshire.  But that's still a shitload more than the $1.799 I paid on 1/20/09 (and I still have the receipt.)

About three forty in red state hell.

Don't know exactly. Don't really care.

If it were a buck, I'd still crawl across broken glass to vote against any democrat on earth.

I threw out a receipt from 1974 a couple of years ago. It was 2,000 gallons of non-highway diesel....15.9 cent a gallon. It was the last time it was ever that cheap.

I had receipts from the late 70's (Carter years) for off road fuel...$1.39/9 a gallon.

It dropped to as low as 35.9 a gallon for a little while under Reagan.
