When Obama was discussing bankrupting coal companies, ending dependence on fossil fuels altogether, he said, “under my plan, energy costs will necessarily skyrocket”. And now he wants to find out who caused the outrageous spike in gasoline prices? Seems to me that’s what he wanted all along. Perhaps just look in the mirror for the culprit?

…are dreams no more. He now has the power to wave his magic pen and totally bankrupt and make powerless the USA. And it is happening before our eyes.

In just one presidential term in office, we have witnessed the transformation, like the shedding of a cocoon or maybe the word is mutation, of the Democratic party into the Neo-communist Democrats Progressive [NDP] party that moves as one to destroy America.

I can be only disrespectful of the Obama administration.

“Everybody wants to go after the oil companies, and frankly, they’ve got some part of this to blame,” the Speaker said. “But they’ve got to do everything they can to help us produce oil and gas at a lower price.”

In terms of the tax credits, Boehner said he disagreed that the credits were “special benefits,” but acknowledged that with the country’s massive budget shortfall, Congress should keep all options should be on the table.

“It certainly is something we ought to be looking at. We’re in a time when the federal government’s short on revenues,” Boehner said. “We need to control spending, but we need to have revenues to keep the government moving. And they ought to be paying their fair share.”

To be fair, Mr. Boehner said he wants to take the tax breaks away from big oil companies. As Mr. Boren pointed out, big oil companies lost these breaks many years ago.

Basically, that is what Obama is doing. So he can give Jeffery Immelt more billions to research useless “renewable energy.” Has there in history been a more obvious money cycle than the GE/Obama connection?

I wish someone in the GOP would come out and say, “I’ll vote to end subsidies for oil companies, just as soon as Obama ends the tax breaks and subsidies for GM.”

The crooked SOB would shut his mouth on this issue, at least.

of the modern Democrat Presidential Administration is starting. During about 12 months of the Carter Administration everything Carter did was an attempt to fix a screw up that he made earlier that just screwed things up even more. Clinton was able to avoid this stage because he let the (R)s run the government while he never had any sexual relations in the Oval Office. That was kind of hilarious, but not tragic. Inflation is the most tragic tax on the poor and middle class. Doesn’t affect people like the BenBernanke who ride in limos and have never been inside a grocery store.

Or rather, he only hates Big Business, while he clearly loathes small business. The five reasons for this are:

a) Small business demonstrates that regular people can succeed financially without government assistance,

b) Small business generates greater wealth and employment in this country than big business, thus undermining Obama’s social engineering goals and class demagoguery,

c) Small business has less reason than big business to engage in rent-seeking behavior with the government, and so has far less reason to donate to and vote for Democrats

d) Small businesses tend to be run by regular people, while big businesses are led by Obama’s fellow elites,

e) Big businesses, in the end, are more easy to nationalize than small businesses, which is Obama’s end-game for the economy.

Environmental lobby. They have taken measures to stifle any oil or natural gas production with their rediculous restrictions. Please understand that we don’t have ANYONE in congress that has the stones to make a real push back against his majesty for fear of what it might do to their career in politics. We have NO representation. Get elected and don’t make waves and keep your seat. The one promise “O” has kept was raising gas prices and now that it’s getting closer to election time he is outraged about the possible price fixing or gouging that may be going on. I expect this sort of back handed foolishness from this sleeze ball but I also expect the so-called conservatives that were given the majority last November to put up a fight. As I feared after the election, it’s just business as usual once they secured another term with little or NO concern about the American public until the next election. “O” will get his wish that gas go for $5-6/gallon because these spinless wimps in DC will let him without so much as a terse word. It’s a disgusting lack of leadership at a time when America needs a strong leader the most. Please educate your friends that don’t understand what’s happening unless it’s about American Idol. We have to rid ourselves of this “progressive/socialist” cancer in 2012 or become the next Cuba!

When president Bush used an executive order to end the ban on off shore drilling in the summer of 2008, the price of gas immediately fell and continued to fall for the rest of the year.

Amazing how that supply and demand thing works.

“Hey Boss, I’m working hard today by phoning it in from the golf course”

“Don’t worry Dear, I’m sticking to my diet with this second hot fudge sundae”

“Sincerely, Barack Obama”

“Energy prices will, of necessity, skyrocket.” — Barack Obama, 2008.

is falling so much some American Blacks are reminding people he’s only half-black.

We had a Rhodes scholar recently (Clinton) that spent some time protesting and putting down America while studying in Europe, so education wasn’t much help in his formation as a world leader.

Now we have a Magna Cum Laude from arguably the most liberal campus on the continent today…apparently that was much help for community organizing, not much help for world leading.

Nah, give me a practical fair-to-good student in school who isn’t being carried around on other shoulders. That one develops some character that plays out in the world arena in far more practical ways than being a prima donna from the left’s academically arrogant stock.

When Obama ends business incentives to the oil industry, he also needs to end incentives to child production via Medicaid AFDIC. We really need to stop subsidizing that industry. And, we would like for him to end energy credits for the Wind Energy because wind farms are abandoned, due to the fact that they do not make their owners enough money, We agree. with Obama, subsidies are a real drain and a nuisance.

Because Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard, either professors at Harvard must not do any testing for common sense solutions at that college or he must be the child that didn’t turn out quite right or both. Certainly his track record indicates every intention of throwing good money after bad, something our grannies told us not to do. They were good ol’ common sense Americans.

can fund alternative projects with the tax revenue and somehow magically everyone will go buy a new car. Cash for Clunkers 2.0 payoff for votes in 2012? The only good that high prices bring is the end of Obama’s job. I can wait that out with $4 gas or whatever but can his supporters. Nope the poor are already complaining and blaming Obama.

The Fecal Brains at Media Matters had a meltdown because Obama is being blamed, rightfully so because Obama is in charge. Obama could have acted when oil hit $70 a barrel, above $70 the economy suffers. Price went in the low thirties till after Obama policy went into effect on Jan 20, 2009
