Forget price per gallon, use the cost to fill up: About $100 for larger vehicles and $50 for smaller ones. If the average family of four income is $50,500/year, that $50-$100 is very painful.

Black dfenders of Obama, and members of the certifiably loony Left, are extremely vocal about their wishes; however, we still operate on a system of one man (or woman) one vote, and the statistics don’t lie.

Obama is the worst president in America’s entire history, bar none, and he’s hugely unpopular.

I don’t think he has a chance in the next election.

However, your dismay at even his small continuing levels of loud-mouthed support is well placed; if, after all that’s happened, he can still muster this, then there are a great many idiots out there.

If he does win a second term, the nation won’t survive in any variety of recognizable form.

“Consumers’ pain at the gas pump will likely be shared by President Obama at the polls in 2012 and could cost him a second term unless energy prices take a drastic turn for the better in the next 18 months.”

Or dear leader goes ahead with his plan for totalitarianism in America. I mean, come on, what’s he acted like more? A dictator or an elected representative of his people?

I recently read Dinesh D’Souza’s book which fingers Obozo’s plan as simple anti-colonialism or anti-neocolonialism. He wants to diminish America and raise up the Third World. It is a mindless, zero-sum game which all lefties believe in. And Obama especially.

It is a stupid, obsolete ideology which was favored in 1950’s Kenya. But Obama identifies with it due to a sick obsession with his supposed father, Barack Sr., who practiced it.

It has long since been replaced by free market, global economic thinking in the Third World and the countries which have adopted it (India, CHina, Chile) are taking off while the old anti-colonialists (Zimbabwe, Liberia) are stuck in the mud.

Dumb, but 0’s actions show him to be a believer. And we Americans are his targets as “neo-colonialists” and “imperialists.”

Like Michael Moore, 0 believes that there is plenty of money in America-—in private “rich people’s” hands-—and he intends to squeeze out every drop of it through confiscatory taxation.

His thing is REVENGE by the “oppressed!”
