Gasoline Prices Double Since Hussein Seized Power in 2009 (Official Gov't Stats, Keystone Killed)
eia.gov ^ | 1/19/12

Table of gas prices since 1990 shows prices at the pump have soared since Hussein seized power. Funny how the media ignores the pain suffered by American motorists due to the failure of Hussein to encourage our energy independence.

Did you hear the Keystone pipeline was killed?

TOPICS: Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: gas
Since Hussein has started running campaign commercials now, this fact ought to be pointed out.

Gas prices hurt everyone.

What's amusing is that when we all cut back...the government went nuts because the gas tax is a huge income for them. Same with our state tax.

The bus companies were angry because they made so much money that they lost their subsidies, i.e., they actually had to work for their money. Imagine that.

Gas prices are up 30 cents a gallon here...from two weeks ago.

Let’s see, Gas double, Food with a huge increase and we don’t have inflation. Just like the U-6 unemployment # doesn’t really mean unemployment is 15 or 16%. Gotta love these Government stats.

Get this info to Newt for use against The Messiah from now on....no Republican (other than a RINO) can get the Green Vote, anyway, and pointing to the pump and saying “and for THIS, we vetoed the Keystone Pipeline”. Follow that up with “and with 10 million un-employed, we had a chance to create 10’s of thousands of jobs.....but appeasement and re-election is more important than Leading the USA back to economic recovery”.

from another thread today “..In the past three years, these factors have caused the closure of approximately 18 refineries in the United States and Europe...”

one post to that one said that refinery production exceeds demand so they don't need additional refineries - but prices at the pump keep going up - this very confusing!

It’s easier for the Democrats to control people who are cold, sitting in the dark and hungry. Now, if they could just get rid of all those pesky personal weapons.

It would be great if the Debaters simply answered all “gotcha” questions from the “moderators” with:

(1) “Really, John, shouldn’t you be asking us about how we would roll back Obama’s increases on the price of gasoline? Gasoline prices have doubled (DOUBLED!) since Obama took office. Let me answer that IMPORTANT question...

(2) “Really, John, shouldn’t you be asking us about how we would block the EPA’s efforts to force electric rates to double. It’s like the EPA wants to transfer ALL manufacturing jobs out of this country. Who will Obama blame for the “black-outs” his EPA is preparing to inflict on us?
