Obama Likes High Gasoline Prices, But Won't Admit It








Energy Policy: If gasoline prices so far are any indication, the pain at the pump will be severe this year. But if you think President Obama cares, you're wrong. If anything, he's secretly cheering it on.

Already, average pump prices have topped $3.50 a gallon, leading some experts to think they could reach an all-time high of $5 by the summer.

So what's Obama's response? He treats it like a badge of honor, saying this week that "gas prices are on the rise again because as the economy strengthens, global demand for oil increases."

But what else can he say?

During his presidential campaign, Obama admitted he didn't have a problem with sky-high gasoline prices, he just "would have preferred a gradual adjustment."

His choice for energy secretary, Steven Chu, certainly doesn't mind them. Before joining the administration he said that "somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe."

And last year, Chu claimed "the price of gasoline over the long haul should be expected to go up."

At the same time, Obama has repeatedly feigned an inability to do anything about oil prices. Last April, he said: "I'm just going to be honest with you. There's not much we can do next week or two weeks from now."

But this simply isn't true.

The country is virtually awash in oil, with as much as 1.4 trillion "recoverable" barrels now available, thanks to new discoveries and advanced drilling technologies, according to the Institute for Energy Research.

That's about twice the proved reserves in all of OPEC. But much of it is off-limits due to federal restrictions.

If Obama were to announce an aggressive effort to tap our vast domestic oil riches, it would have an immediate effect on prices. If you don't think so, consider how prices immediately dropped when President Bush simply announced plans to lift a presidential moratorium on offshore drilling in 2008.

Obama says the recent modest increase in domestic production is proof he's not anti-oil. But this happened despite his policies, not because of them — largely the result of drilling permits issued under Clinton and Bush, and the oil boom on private lands in North Dakota.

Whenever Obama has had the chance to encourage production, he's done the opposite:

• He needlessly halted Gulf drilling permits after the BP oil spill, and continues to slow-walk them. Permit approvals are less than half their pre-Obama average, and approval times have nearly doubled.

• Obama scuttled the 700,000-barrels-a-day Keystone XL pipeline, despite approval by the State Department after an exhaustive three-year review.

• And he endlessly demonizes oil companies while pushing to sharply raise their taxes.

The truth is that for Obama, low gas prices are the problem, since they would hamper progress toward his "green" Nirvana, where we all hop on government trains and putter around in government-approved electric cars. It's just that he's smart enough not to say this out loud.

you will recall

though you will pretend not to recall

back in 07, when gas ran up

NIGGER and DUMZ screamed BLOODY murder, AXED to have SPR to be released etc etc

NIGGER was on TV, reading from a TP, words written by a WHITE guy...telling us how BAD it is and it would be better with him


Now they are NOT only doing/saying NOTHING

They are MAKING CERTAIN IT GOES HIGHER

Every PENNY is $1 BILLION less in spending

NIGGER wants to KILL OUR ECONOMY and WILL DO SO AFTER HE IS RE-ELECTED

No it’s not, especially if doing so requires increasing taxes and fees by $1.4 billion. The net gas-related hike would make the amount Michiganders pay their state government to fill up their vehicles the highest in the nation. Increasing the vehicle value-based registration fee, or “birthday tax,” by the proposed 67% would further unfairly hit light-mileage drivers who inflict little damage on the state’s roads.

Another reason why the proposed levies don’t make sense is that, as the Mackinac Institute notes, most of the 6% sales tax levied on gas purchases — a levy separate from the per-gallon charge at the pump — “does not go to build or repair roads.” Targeting the money to its proper place could fund needed repairs while avoiding tax increases. But making sure that happens would also involve doing something about how the sales tax is currently allocated. Apparently, timid politician Rick and his state’s RINO legislators aren’t up for that.

Gas companies are gouging you, and all you can think of is blaming the President.

ED DRISCOLL: Two Gray Ladies In One.“In 2008, the New York Times, the Washington Post, NBC, and tacitly, the San Francisco Chronicle all supported the notion of the then-incoming President Obama raising energy prices on consumers. Have gas prices risen sufficiently ‘gradually’ to benefit Mr. Obama’s reelection chances? The Times doesn’t seem to think so, despite having called for them to rise three and a half years ago.”

Pay for it at the register.

BRILLIANT!

Prove it.

The President has repeatedly said he wants higher energy prices in the Holy name of Gaia...

He just wants a gradual rise in prices.

The he uses rhetoric like yours (while he takes their money under the table to not actually act upon his rhetoric, so you're going to have to riot and burn stuff to get even).

It will do what Carter did and start lying about "obscene profits." We'll probably be re-visiting those mile long gas lines of the 70s.

Just did a little calculation. If I take my normal 4000 mile road trip in May and gas is $5 a gallon, it will cost be more than $1500 if I take my truck. It will cost me $700 if I take my Corvette. Trouble is, that car isn't the ideal vehicle in the far Northwest; so, do I even go?

Imagine what happens to the cost of commerce at every level.

Hold On To Your Seats! Obama Does Not “Accept Responsibility” For Soaring Gas Prices…




Because everyone knows it’s never his fault.

Via Beltway Confidential:


President Obama does not “accept responsibility” for high gas prices, his spokesman indicated today, arguing that Obama has done everything he could to bring down the price of oil and blaming the high gas prices on oil price increases caused by global factors.

“The president accepts the responsibility that he identified the next president should accept, which is the need for comprehensive energy policy,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said today when asked if Obama “accept responsibility” for the high price of oil and gas. “If you’re suggesting that there is responsibility for a rise in the price of oil, it’s certainly not because of anything he hasn’t done to expand oil production,” Carney added.
