Food & Gas Prices are soaring. So tell me again how the Dear Leader is saving the World?
Memorial Day weekend drivers will continue to take a hit as gasoline prices remain high.
May 20 marks the 1,245th straight day that the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline costs more than $3 a gallon, according to AAA data. That's nearly three-and-a-half years above $3 a gallon.
USA Today reported last September that, for the first time ever, gas prices had been higher than $3 a gallon for 1,000 consecutive days - beginning Dec. 23, 2010, through Sept. 17, 2013. Unfortunately, that awful record streak of sustained highs has not been broken. Gas prices dipped in the fall, down to $3.179 (Nov. 12), but surged again.
The national average on May 20, 2014, for regular gas was $3.642 a gallon, slightly less than the $3.653 a gallon average one year earlier.
On May 18, USA Today turned to the issue of gas prices again writing that "rumors about the demise of U.S. gasoline demand have been greatly exaggerated." Javier E. David of CNBC wrote for USA Today that international factors were keeping prices high and "defied the gravitational pull" of factors "that should blunt demand."
AAA's Memorial Day forecast predicted 31.8 million people will be driving over the holiday and that gas prices will be "relatively similar" to where they were Memorial Day 2013.
ABC, CBS and NBC morning and evening news shows haven't spent much time on gas prices, lately. A Nexis search yielded only 11 stories mentioning what was going on with gas prices in the past three months.

Stuff it, Paul.
Apparently you missed the hundreds of memos: It's not the President's fault if gas prices go up.
Of course you totally failed to give him credit when prices dropped, so maybe you did get the memos but like being dishonest and spreading brainless propaganda.
BTW, gas prices ALWAYS increase around holidays. Supply and demand or something like that.
Yup, i'm sure you said that when yer BOOOOOSH Boogeyman was in there. Sure ya did.
I know a lot more than you think about it. I've posted many articles on this issue. I've attacked both parties over the issue as both ABETTED in the Crime.............
The Commodities Futures Modernization ACT in 2000 allowed the system to go completely Self Governed by the Bankers and Wall Street. They went hog wild, and raised the prices of everything. Increases in Agriculture trading went up 2300% alone.
The OTC's went postal and the rest is history.
Now we've propped up the whole thing with Fiat Money re-inflating the bubble that will burst again.
So Federal regulators under Bush failed to do their job. We already knew that.
With the exception of the oil guys, EVERY merger passed by the SEC under Bush failed.
The Regulators didn't have a job anymore as they were taken out of the loop. Pushed by both parties, more so by Republicans, and signed by Clinton................
These areas of the Too Big to Fail were to be self Regulated and the OTC's went postal.
All parties are involved. They knew damn well what was happening and ignored the consequences...............
And now, they have propped the rigged system back up to only see it fail in the not so distant future...........
Gramm's wife was given a job at Enron as a reward to create that loop hole........And commodity Futures Trading increased by over 2000% in some areas............
You want $1 gasoline?
Much as I hate Obama he's got nothing to do with gas $

No just reasonable gasoline. And his administration is claiming we are about to become the largest oil and natural gas producer in the world. So yes, If he is making the claim he does have something to do with it.
Making such a claim doesn't mean Obama had a hand in that phenomenon- which he didn't.
And keep in mind that Obama, his administration, and a host of Democrats are pushing hard for at least $40 billion in new taxes on oil and natural gas. No, if he had his way O&G would be dead and buried just like he's doing to coal.

That's absolutely correct, shepherded by Phil Gramm literally in the dead of night and signed into law by Bull Clinton in December 2000, while everybody's attention was diverted by hanging chads in Florida -- the sleight of hand artists doing what sleight of hand artists do, telling us "look over there" while they pick the public pocket.
And still we pretend these are two different parties...
Still without a clue, I see.No just reasonable gasoline. And his administration is claiming we are about to become the largest oil and natural gas producer in the world. So yes, If he is making the claim he does have something to do with it.

Isn't the $40 billion in NEW TAXES actually eliminating the oil subsidies?
Stuff it, Paul.

Aren't you the same font of wisdom that created a thread thinking the POTUS controls gas prices?
How'd that work for ya in the summer of '08?

Is that why the Manchurian muslim refuse to go through with the pipeline, and refuses to let the oil companies FRACK and we can have a GLUT of oil that would drive prices down all over the world? Take a longer hit this time, and try posting again on ...say Thursday, any Thursday in October!

Duh oil bidness doesn't work that way -- dumbass.
Fracking is for natural gas, not oil (duh one)...
No amount of activity would produce a "glut" on the world market (duh two) and even if it did, OPEC would simply cut back to compensate (duh three)...
O'bama doesn't do the drilling, refining or distributing anyway; for-profit oil companies do that, and they're not gonna undermine their own profits (duh four)...
And all the pipeline does is grease the rails for said profit, as it sends Canadian raw material to Houston where it can be loaded on ships to China and India (duh five)..
NONE of which means a drop in the bucket here.
Thanks for the glut of low-hangin' fruit though. If we could run industry and transportation on ignorant fallacies you'd be rich by now instead of spending all your time trolling the internets for jpegs that demonstrate the depth of your intellectual black holicity.

I asked a question. I see you can't answer it.

Of course, we had a rightie president at the time they insisted that. 
You want $1 gasoline?

Yes and no......Market forces are far more influential. However, the sitting president's energy policy is significant as well.
And this president's energy policy is adversarial to fossil fuels.
