OUTLOOK: 2012 to be very painful at the gas pump
avatar

We can place the blame where it will rightfully belong. On the worst president in U.S. history, Barack Obama, and here’s why.

  • He’s against the Keystone Pipeline.
  • Ignored court orders to resume off shore drilling
  • Nuclear Power at a standstill because he closed Yucca Mountain storage facility
  • Against shale oil
  • Closed and grabbed mineral rich western land and placed them on “protected” list
  • Refuses to open ANWR
  • No offshore Alaska drilling

So yeah, he will be to blame. Not all of the blame should be his, but most of it will be his share of the blame.

I don’t want to hear about any green or alternative energy/fuels bullshit. We all know it does not work and is extremely expensive. Put a sock in it, that lame argument does not hold water. Time for you to climb down from the euphorion tree and dip your toes in to reality.

CHICAGO (CBS) β€” Gasoline prices could approach $5 a gallon by Memorial Day and stay a record levels for much of the summer, according to a forecast by GasBuddy.com.

Gas prices always spike in the summer, but the 2012 Gasbuddy.com Price Outlook predicts this summer will break records.

β€œIt looks like it might be the most painful year at the pump that we have ever seen,” senior analyst Patrick DeHaan said.

And for those that voted for Obama and won’t be able to afford gas, or very little of it. You people will have no right to expect that you’re entitled to gas relief. Elections have consequences, you voted for the asshole, now you need to suffer the consequences of your actions, then do the right thing in November and vote this destructive maniac out of office.

Of course international events out of President Obama's control could spike gas prices. If that happens I hope that the voters are intelligent enough not to blame Obama......wait, I forgot we are dealing with ignoranr racists here who blames very thing on the black man, because they're racists.
Oil and fuel are traded on worldwide open commodities markets where traders dictate prices The Whitehouse has about as much power over gas prices as I have power to run your life and that is no power whatsoever
When you add the 6 trillion from Bush W's 8 years ( the worst president in history) and the lack of regulations pushed by the Republicans that destroyed the middle class in terms of their 401'ks, the jobs lost by moving corporations over seas, the tax laws that favor the rich, AND THE BUSH RECESSION YOU GO FIGURE.
Clinton put this nation on a fiscal course to pay off the debt this year, Bush and his REPUBLICAN HOUSE AND SENATE FOR 6 YEARS KILLED THAT with the laws they passed and the enormous deficit spending, including a medicare drug plan, two wars and a reduction in taxes to the lowest taxes have ever been.
AGAIN you go figure and while your at it wake up to what has happened.
