According to Nancy Pelosi: “Independent reports confirm that speculators are driving up the cost of oil, hurting consumers and potentially damaging the economic recovery. Wall Street profiteering, not oil shortages, is the cause of the price spike.  In fact, U.S. oil production is at its highest level since 2003, and millions of acres have been [...]

Liberals are rather aghast that some people assert Obama’s policies have driven the price of gas in this country through the roof.  Now that gas is nearing $4.00 a gallon, it’s become an issue to be debated seriously.  And, it is: who is at fault for these gas prices? Public OpinionPoll Results And: And: Gas [...]

Good question! QuestionsView Results What’s that you say? I left something out? Oh yeah. How many people would have answered differently if they had known it was Sarah Palin? Be honest. So many people are so hung up on the “Sarah Palin is stupid” liberal talking point that they more often than not will react [...]

Larry Elder over at RealClearPolitics writes a very nice little article retrospective of when gas prices rose under Bush, and how they are now under Obama.  In his article, he mentions some comments made by Nancy Pelosi.  I had tackled that one before.  Just for the record, when she made the comments criticizing Bush and [...]

 Apparently some guy named Chris Steiner wrote a book called $20 Per Gallon: How the Inevitable Rise in the Price of Gasoline Will Change Our Lives for the Better.  It’s gathering some chatter from peeps I enjoy and occasionally respect. Andrew Sullivan loved it: $20 a gallon is about the only thing that could unleash [...]

Via See-Dubya at Michelle Malkin’s blog, with an assist from Gasbuddy: Apparently Nancy is finally starting to feel the heat.  So, she came up with the ultimate solution her feable mind could produce: July 8, 2008 The Honorable George W. Bush The President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, [...]

It’s making the rounds again as the Dems warm up for the fall.  Obama’s already testing it.  Clinton has worn it out already.  Several have already blamed the price of gas on Bush, and most have offered their solutions to the Bush problem.  When you listen to them make those arguments, remember one thing:   [...]

On April 24, 2006, Nancy Pelosi made this promise: With skyrocketing gas prices, it is clear that the American people can no longer afford the Republican Rubber Stamp Congress and its failure to stand up to Republican big oil and gas company cronies. Americans this week are paying $2.91 a gallon on average for regular [...]
