This may very well be the first step to nationalizing the oil & gas industry. Vigilance is the word until he leaves office. I hope it's sooner than later but the MSM is simultaneously boosting him and degrading the tea party/conservative agenda. We will have to defeat this progressive/socialist agenda like Reagan crushed Carter and Mondale to temporarily blunt the assault of the two great evils in our country: progressives and ungodliness.

What is he going to Investigate ? His Campaign Pledge? He said his Energy policy is Going to Necessarily cause Energy prices to Skyrocket. Why the Hell doesnt somebody ask Him what the Hell is he Investigating? He Freakin said he was going to Cause this and all the Pundits sit there with their Thumbs up their a....,and try to figure out what is Happening. When the Hell is anyone going to Listen to what the Marxist is SAYING,for Crying out Loud.THE MARXIST SAID HE WAS GOING TO FUNDEMENTALLY CHANGE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! HIS POLICIES WOULD CAUSE EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING,and NO ONE will point the Finger at the Putz who is causing it. When the Guy says his policies will cause the Energy Prices to skyrocket,either Praise him for his Success,or Blame him for it,but stop freakin looking for excuses to blame someone else

We are going to make sure that no one is taking advantage of the American people for their own short-term gain. Obama believes in swindling the public for long-term gain. LOL
As long as it can benefit the democrats.

Task force? Maybe we need something more, like a cabinet level department. Something set up for the express mission statement of `lessening our dependence on foreign oil.’
But what would we call it? Gee, I dunno ... how about the `Department of Energy’?

No doubt the commission will recommend more solar and windmill projects to reduce the price of gas at the pump while they cannot find any reason to approve any permits for any drilling in the foreseeable future and move to close down the 400 worse coal fired power plants and the 25 oldest nuclear power plants as well as the 10 largest refineries.
Yeah...that should make Obamalamadindong happy....unless GE owns any of those then never mind.

Raising taxes will increase the value of the dollar, and that will lower gas prices. That’s where this is headed.

Should Not be Hard,maybe he can start the Investigation Here.
As director of the Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory, Steven Chu, Obamas secretary at the Department of Energy, said in an interview that gas taxes should slowly be increased over the next 15 years in order to force people to turn to alternative energy sources.
Somehow, we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to levels in Europe, said Chu.
In Europe, the price for a gallon of gas consistently hovers around $10 a gallon.

We know the problem.
Our money is worth less , so the oil producers charge us more.
Who is at fault?
Obama only needs to look in the mirror when he shaves in the morning.

Why waste time and money on these “blue ribbon” commissions, expensive consultants, etc. Time to “Drill here, drill now”! That would go a long way to alleviate the gas price pain !
To: Diogenesis
The prick behind the gas prices is right behind “Eric the lame” in that picture Diogenesis.
