Buy a car that gets twice the gas mileage of whatever guzzler you're currently driving, and you'll effectively put your gas price back to 2 bucks a gallon.

Ads far as Bushs foreign policy, well, thats a double edged sword. I agree that the area is undergoing upheaval, how much did or does Iraq really have to do with that? Yemen is a mess due to AQ machinations outside any Iraqi influence, Oman same, Tunisia same, Egypt? same....food index prices probably have more to do with it ( ethanol anyone) and the inherent lack of representative gov. than iraq...*shrugs*. In the end I agree right now Obama has had only a slight effect on the overall price, however, each dollar that goes up and the longer we refuse to allow the gulf to reopen, well, that becomes problematic.
*********************88That's because it was Bush's fault. He invaded 2 separate countries and iniated some of the longest military actions in this nation's history.
And nothing President Obama has done caused oil prices to spike.
*************************
The Iraq/Afgan wars are now the longest in American history and there appears to be no end in sight.
We are a stupid bunch!!!!!!
No end in sight?
Wow! That's way different than what Obama said when he promised he'd end the wars.

Oil Prices: Another Glaring Example of Liberal Hypocrisy
Oil prices top $104 a barrel, highest since 2008
NEW YORK Oil prices rose past $104 a barrel to end the week at a 29-month high, as fighting in Libya intensified and the world's largest petroleum consumer, the U.S., reported that employers added nearly 200,000 new jobs in February.

It appears that when hell freezes over we will still have troops in Iraq/Afganistan.
Will this be Obama's fault? Yes! And those that come after him. As it was for those that came before.

This is actually an example of a double standard, not hypocrisy

You're right. Bush did nothing to cause most of the crap they threw at him. The question is not iwhether or not Bush deserved the blame. The question is why did Bush get the Blame while Obama does not.
Compare the Katrina and the Deep water drilling disaster. Not the actual events, but the way they were reported and the slant taken by the reporting. Try the statements of the opposition party's elite.
Finally, with the current crisis in oil pricing, please explain which party has done the most to restrict drilling and homeland oil production.
Isn't that what you and all the other anti-Obama crowd are doing here and everywhere else?
Wasn't one of the stated goals of Bush's Iraq war to spread democracy throughout the Middle East?
Yes. Okay, so now it's happening, and one of the side effects is an instability premium being put on the price of oil.
So it's still Bush's fault.
After oil recently hit $140/barrel, it plummeted to around $30 in a matter of months. We were still in Iraq and Afghanistan, so what gives?
It's a bit silly to argue an administration's effect on long-term oil prices, but its effect on domestic supply is another issue. Obama is attempting to set the stage to collapse the domestic oil and gas industry's ability to find hydrocarbons in this country. Up to $90 billion in new taxes is on the table, hydraulic fracturing is under attack, and the Gulf is still in limbo.
Who stopped the drilling in the Gulf?
