Except he said it.
Obama: My Plan Makes Electricity Rates Skyrocket - YouTube
So are you honestly saying he doesn't want energy prices to necessarily skyrocket, despite the fact that he says he clearly does?
Obama was talking about a different plan causing energy costs to “skyrocket.” As the Associated Press noted in fact-checking Palin’s book, Obama was not talking about the cap-and-trade legislation that has since passed in the House when he referred to energy costs “necessarily skyrocket[ting].” When Obama made that statement to the San Francisco Chronicle editorial board in January 2008, he was describing a cap-and-trade proposal that would auction off 100 percent of available carbon allowances, and he made no mention at the time of a plan to compensate consumers for potential cost increases. But as PolitiFact.com noted, the Waxman-Markey bill initially would distribute most of the carbon allocations for free and contains substantial provisions to offset costs to consumers, and thus “should reduce costs to consumers.”
Except it was taken totally out of context. Only dittoheads believe such obvious tripe, repeated billions of time - it's the gigantic Pub BS industry...
