Gas Prices vs Obama/Democrats

[Lumpy 1]

Obama/Democrats taking credit for their failures....


In President Obama’s State of the Union preview, he touted low gas prices as an example of positive economic results. “America is now in a position to really turn the page,” he said and cited in part the fact that “gas prices have dropped.”

No doubt, the plunge in gas prices from $4 per gallon to just over $2 has benefited the economy. Drivers enjoy the cost savings at the pump each week; many families are saving upwards of $400 monthly in lowered fuel costs. Lower energy costs also bolster employment growth as goods can be produced less expensively. As transportation costs decline, retail prices decline as well.

But can the president claim credit for these savings? Not so much.



Private Sector Not Obama Created Lower Gas Prices

You're welcome Lump

Shithead's energy policy caused the $4 gas when it should have been less than $1.50 the entire time. Now that it's .50 more we're supposed to celebrate? Only stupid lefty democrat obamorons.

What policies affected the price of gasoline at the pump? Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't the price of gasoline a by-product of global oil trends, supply and demand, and commodity speculation on the world commodity exchanges? I really haven't heard of any policies engineered and enacted by Mr. Obama that can be associated with cheaper gasoline at the pump. Can someone clue me in if they have knowledge of such action by Mr. Obama? Thanks.

He's only affected higher prices by denying oportunity to enhance global supply with his bogus AGW energy policy. He's cost my family over $50,000 so far. Asshole hack president.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Gas prices have risen more than a dollar a gallon in the last couple of weeks. Thanks Obama.

 

[Manonthestreet]

Meanwhile cost of electricity continues to set records

 

[Mr. H.]

There is no greater disconnect in our economy as that between Obama and gasoline prices.
Get a freakin' clue ya dopes.

 

[edthecynic]

Since the Republicans took over Congress, gas is up and the GDP is down.
Thanks Republican Party! You suck!

We are mocking the Communists (Including the fuckwad Obama) who bragged that falling gas prices were due to the brilliance of the Won.

Bullshit.
Obama's energy policy drove oil prices up. That rippled through every aspect of the economy and all consumer goods went up as a result. Obama has cost every American household thousands in disposable income annually. That has deprived our economy of the necessities to expand and that is why we have never recovered since before he took office.
Period.

Far-right wingnuts have been falsely giving Bush credit for low gas prices in 2007 (when those gas prices were due to the economic collapse, not any of Bush's policies), and blaming Obama for rising gas prices since he took office. So, naturally, when gas prices recently reached their lowest point since 2007, liberals threw it in the face of conservatives.

No they haven't, but you have no integrity so you don't mind lying.

Obama can claim exactly, precisely, expressly the same amount of credit for gas prices as his adversaries have blamed him for gas prices. And not a penny more or less.

Nope, I'm right on the money and you're an apologist. You can't even rebut.
Geez, you're obvious.

No actually he said he would open land in Alaska for drilling, gas dropped as quickly as it went up.
