"If you're complaining about the price of gas and you're only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know," Obama said laughingly. "You might want to think about a trade-in."

Can you believe the comments on Yahoo?? That used to be his home turf. This comment went over the line.

HMMMMMM.

Just like he explained away his need to keep HIS quarters at an elevated temperature the first year of office because he was “from a tropical climate”.

I hate this bastard. The sooner we vote him out of office the better.

I recall that during his campgain he promised that the prices of gas would rise, and that his wife promised that the citizens would find it difficult when he became president. Does anyone have a link to those statements?

Both would be damning to him and would show that he and his handlers have manipulated this increase.

Not a very smart thing to say to people who are feeling the pinch of higher energy prices.

"If you're complaining about the price of gas and you're only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know," Obama said laughingly. "You might want to think about a trade-in."

BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Oh, God, you are so HILARIOUS, Hussein!!!!

Now, REPUBLICAN PARTY...when the HELL are the ads going to start that blast the MAN CHILD for these IDIOTIC statements?! I'm serious. We need to PASTE the TRUTH about this jerkwad all over the collective conscience of every man, woman and child in America with a functioning medulla oblongota. And you can do it using HIS WORDS.

Get Allen West out there to front the pieces. Get Larry Elder. Get a whole boatload of black conservatives to target this dillhole in the urban areas.

Then start putting up billboards all over Iowa. Let the farmers there know he doesn't give one DAMN about their fuel costs.

I am sick and tired of conservatives WAITING for the media to wake up. It won't. It WORSHIPS Barack Hussein Obama...it is filled with acolytes of academic elites who think socialism is the cure for all ills...and that America SUCKS.

In the long run, we can put our imprint upon journalism, but in the short run we have to treat this like it is: a war for LIBERTY. And if we don't identify the enemy of LIBERTY--embodied TODAY in Hussein--and defeat it at the ballot box and in public opinion, we will LOSE our LIBERTY.

Hussein's Limo gets no more than 20 MPG, but of course Hussein doesn't have to pay for its gas. We do.

This Obama’s “Let them eat cake” moment, I do believe.

He is a blessing alright, to Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, Chavez, Castro, George Soros, Al Sharpton, the New Black Panthers, ACORN, LaRaza, his union thugs, Nancy Pelosi, the ACLU, the usual democrat anti-Constitution-anti-Bill of Rights crowd, et al.

He is getting hammered in the comments section. I really liked this one:

“I wonder where all the paid Obama trolls are ??? Must be taking a union break.....”
