Have you ever noticed with Obama, it’s never his fault? It’s always somebody else. “Point & Blame” is his nickname. It fits. He is setting up big oil to be the villain for the results of his bad policies. With Obama, as with all progressives, you need to have a villain even if it means creating one out of thin air. That’s the M.O. of the progressive.

If you fall for Obama’s lies, you are one dumbass, retarded son-of-a-bitch that needs to be locked up in the funny farm. You’re an imbecile, a mindless drone that follows the pied piper, incapable of individual thought and reason, completely void of logical, critical thinking skills.

The set up is beginning. Via MSNBC:

President Barack Obama said Thursday that the Justice Department will try to “root out” cases of fraud or manipulation in oil markets, even as Attorney General Eric Holder suggested a variety of legal reasons may be behind gasoline’s surge to $4 a gallon.

“We are going to make sure that no one is taking advantage of the American people for their own short-term gain,” Obama said at a town-hall style meeting at a renewable energy plant in Reno, Nev.

A town-hall at a renewable energy plant? Now that wouldn’t tip his hand at all about his policies now, would it?

1. Did big oil put in place an illegal offshore drilling moratorium, or Obama?
2. Did big oil place an onshore drilling moratorium, or did Obama?
3. Did big oil refuse to drill in ANWR, or was that an Obama order?
4. Did big oil put a stop to shale oil mining, or Obama?
5. Did big oil place regulations on drilling and exploration, or did Obama?
6. Did big oil make a huge land grab in the mineral and resource rich western states, or was it Obama?
7. Is it big oil that is slow approving drilling permits, or Obama?
8. Did the federal courts order big oil to end the moratoriums, or Obama?

Seems to me, and any other normal, logical thinking human being where the problem lies. And it ain’t big oil.
