Because of you, I can finally say it costs over $75 to fill up my tiny little 1.3L car.

It makes me feel special. :wub:

Hmm, let's see... as I recall, gas prices were at their lowest in the late 90s during the Clinton administration. Once Bush took over, they started rising from less than $1/gallon all the way up to above $4/gallon in 2008 when Bush was still president. Then once Obama took over, they dropped again to the $2-$3 range, and only now are they starting to rise again.

Not that gas prices actually have much to do with who is president at the time. Before you blame Obama for $3.50 gas, remember that Bush was in charge when we had $4.50 gas.

<----- P&N

This isn't a P&N discussion. This is a discussion about that dipshit America voted for. I am ashamed to be a Democrat. Idiots fell for a little bit of sweet talking.

It's the same style of sweet talking those Black Southern Baptist Reverends use to gather their sheeple. Funny how well it worked on the mostly Athiest Liberals. lol

You are just angry because he isn't sharing all the white virgin teens he has stolen from the midwest.

Dangit, don't wanna be in a P&N thread, but . . .
Palin would've been a disaster. It's really too bad that Billary Clinton lost the primary.

And they were cheap under G.H.Bush, so? Everyone wanted to blame Bush when they rose and he was in office. Now they're rising under Obama.

For the record, I don't think the president really has much influence over gas prices one way or another... I'm not sure why people blamed Bush or why anyone would blame Obama.

Gulf drilling moratorium + letting the ME dictators topple = higher gas prices

Because Bush was making $$ for his oil cronies when he did it.:sneaky:

he's black. oil is black. what don't you get?

I prefer my xenophobic tendencies to be based on religion, not color. Obama is a Muslim (according to the e-mails from my stepfather) and a lot of oil comes from countries with large Muslim populations.

Because Bush was making $$ for his oil cronies when he did it.:sneaky:

And Obama hates America when he does it. :sneaky:

Well, spending billions upheaving two countries in the middle east for absofuckinglutely nothing didn't help our national debt or oil reserves.
