OBOMINATION: Gas Price Record Worsens: 1,245 Days Above $3 a Gallon...

Pollie is a riot. His thread was a high price of gas whine now he's backpedaling saying that gas doesn't cost enough :up: rw hack logic at its finest. :rofl:
If it does, watch how fast the nutty right blame

They're never happy. I honestly saw another thread that said cheap gas was going to destroy America. Lol, whut?
There were no offshore restrictions lifted to begin with. They were set to go into effect in 2010, at which point, Obama opened up offshore drilling. Shortly after that, he shut it down again for a period of time following the Deepwater Horizon accident before re-opening it back up again.
The potential for supply as a result of lifted drilling restrictions dropped prices immediately. Reimposing those restrictions caused price increases even though nothing had changed yet. That's how it works.
I'm tired of arguing with democrats with bad memories and closeminded politics.
You are the reason for sustained economic hardship that some of US have felt more than insulated overpaid whitie democrats and those democrats in denial.
as with 94% of un-sourced Rightie posts here, I'm going to have to ask for a :link:
I've provided links too many times for denialists so you go look it up yourself. Start with gas prices in July 2008 and follow through Jan 2009.
Sure, and look at how much offshore drilling was opened ... oh, wait...... none. :dunno:

Again, Bush lifted nothing. Not only was Bush's plan put off until 2010 -- but it required Congress to also lift offshore drilling restrictions which didn't happen until months later. Nothing Bush did opened up offshore drilling. You're clinging to nonsense because that's all you have.
Bush reversed daddy's moratorium in July and congress agreed to allow the more comprehensive offshore ban to expire in Sept 2008. Oil and gas prices fell like a rock as a result. Obama reimpose those restrictions and never reversed course.
It's only been six years. If democrats' memories are that bad it's just another reason to revoke their voting privileges.
Meanwhile, gas prices dropped in August and September before Congress opened up offshore drilling.

oops! There goes your idiocy right out the window. :mm:

When the president proposed "...to open vast expanses of water along the Atlantic coastline, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and the north coast of Alaska to oil and natural gas drilling, much of it for the first time...." in March 2010, oil prices continued to rise. Also contrary to what you claim, after the administration imposed a 6 month ban on deep water drilling, oil prices soon began to fall.

Oil prices fell because economies all over the world were tumbling.
His claim is idiotic. In July, 2008, Bush lifts offshore restrictions starting in 2010. But lifting those restrictions were meaningless because Congress also had imposed restrictions and Bush could not override Congress' restrictions. That didn't happen as crude prices began falling. So no restrictions were lifted and wouldn't happen until 2010 even if Congress agreed to lift their restrictions.

That is the "speculation" this imbecile believes caused gas prices to nose dive by more than 50% in just a few months. Not the crashing economy, which first showed signs of cracking in early August just before bleeding out. No, "speculation" over offshore drilling, which was not approved by Congress until the end of September ... wouldn't go into effect until 2010 ... and wouldn't produce a drop of oil for decades.

:cuckoo::cuckoo::cuckoo:
The claim is right on the money. Commodities like oil are subject to speculation which is based on circumstances. It's not always about right now but what can be. Lifting restrictions of extraction impacted the price immediately. Lifting the more comprehensive restriction dropped the price even more dramatically.
The bullshit obama-excusers, ass-kissing excuse of market crash or recession causing the price of oil to drop means the price would have stayed low because the economy never recovered.
Why do you obama sheeple want economic hardship?
There was nothing lifted. Who knows why you are incapabke of understanding that? :dunno: No one speculates over nothing.

Here's a couple more links for you dishonest partisan hacks...

Gas Prices Are Up Because of Obama s Offshore Ban American Commitment

(Apparently the second link isn't cooperating do your own google)
How funny .... you deny being a rightwinger, yet you post from a rightwing source as though it's factual (1st link, 2nd link I couldn't access).

At any rate, your link lied, providing great evidence you are full of shit. No surprise there, however. It says gas prices fell when Bush lifted offshore drilling but lies by omission by not mentioning how Obama lifted offshore restrictions in March, 2010. Which by the way, preceded gas price increases, precisely the polar opposite of what the article claims lifting offshore drilling would result in.

Why....are you getting indigestion? Eat your heart out....then.


It's unlikely that President Obama will ever shake his reputation among Republicans as a big spender. But a key fact counters that rap.

As a share of the economy, spending on domestic and defense programs has been on the decline since 2010, and is on track to reach the lowest level in more than 50 years by 2023.

Oil prices fell because of drilling moratoriums being lifted and comprehensive drilling plans being enacted. The moratoriums wee reimposed buy obama and the price went back up. Obama's small talk token offer to open offshore drilling not only had the caveat that left most of the lucrative regions off limits but was reversed by December 2010. Not to mention it was reversed a month later after the BP incident.
Obama energy policy has kept this economy in the hole and people like you who defend your favorite sports team continue to enable that hardship.

President Bush didn't submit any type of comprehensive plan until a few days before he left office and then it was only a draft plan. Furthermore President Obama was all for it then and was for it up till the time he release his plan in March of 2010.
