GOP lawmaker slams Biden's blame game on sky-high gas prices: Americans are 'tremendously concerned'
Fox News ^ | March 11, 2022 | Fox News Staff

Rep. Ted Budd, R-N.C., said on "Fox & Friends First" Friday that President Biden's economic and energy policies are driving up costs for American families, reacting to the Biden administration blaming high oil and gas prices on Russian leader Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

FORMER OBAMA ADVISER: DON'T BLAME RUSSIA, BLAME BIDEN FOR INFLATION RATES

REP. TED BUDD: You can see what his actions are, and he is hurting the American people. Anything that we get in the grocery store or anything that we eat, anything that you purchase always comes by truck. That's the way the American economy works. The fossil fuel economy has given us extended lifespans, it has built the economy that we live on. If you want to go green, do it over the next 50 to 100 years, but don't jam it down Americans' throats because it's hurting everyone right now.

Starting two hours after taking office, Biden stepped in it. Killing the XL pipeline, severely restricting federal oil leases, both onshore and offshore, and leaving only oil leases available that are going to be dry holes. Then he has the guts to ask the domestic producers to lower gas princes! That’s like the Menendez brothers asking for the court’s mercy because they are orphans!

I don’t know who’s pulling Joe’s strings, but they can’t even pick a decent candidate for the Supreme Court. (Watch the interview with her by Sen. Kennedy. She is clueless with no moral compass.)

Blame-shifting, goalpost-moving, and word games are what you can expect anywhere Democrats have control.

You can expect that from politicians of either party of course, but when the Democrats are in power the MSM backs their play to the hilt.

GOP lawmakers, you mean the same “lawmakers” who allowed the steal in 2020?

biden already gave us his solution to sky high gas prices

buy an EV

the price of oil is only going up at the gas pump

not the oil that is used by power plants

silly wabbit!

Be sure and send a strongly worded letter as well. Bunch of damn squishes.
