I would endure gas at $10/gallon if it means for certain that Osama is run out of office by outraged people. The FUBAR economy is his now, like a millstone around his scrawny neck. Our mantra in 2012 must be, “It’s the economy, stupid!”
The German economy was especially vulnerable since it was built upon foreign capital, mostly loans from America and was very dependent on foreign trade. When those loans suddenly came due and when the world market for German exports dried up, the well oiled German industrial machine quickly ground to a halt.
As production levels fell, German workers were laid off. Along with this, banks failed throughout Germany. Savings accounts, the result of years of hard work, were instantly wiped out. Inflation soon followed making it hard for families to purchase expensive necessities with devalued money.
Overnight, the middle class standard of living so many German families enjoyed was ruined by events outside of Germany, beyond their control. The Great Depression began and they were cast into poverty and deep misery and began looking for a solution, any solution.

...I'd like to hear why it is that rising gas/oil prices under a Republican President are BOTH bad and the fault of the "EVIL" oil companies and speculators, whereas under a Dumb Dim Democrat President they are cause for celebration? Silly me, I didn't feel much like celebrating yesterday morning after dumping $48 in the tank for a week's worth of driving.
And where's the f'ing Lamestream Media on this utterly cynical, utterly false assertion? Don't answer, we know that they are busy Lewinskying Barack.
Clueless, absolutely clueless.
It already costs me $20 in gas to make $120 a day.
What he really means is : “ And if we start seeing significant increases in gas prices, my re-election could not come at a worse time, ”
On the Maryland front our liberal middle class robbing Governor O Malley is now trying to ram through a 35 cents gasoline tax increase after raising general sales taxes in 2008, and alcohol tax last year.
Just the rich will pay?? fat chance!
This was in fact the case in the previous administration. This time, not so much...
Didn’t Mr. Peanut say the same thing.
