    Yet, today their acolytes, like Dixie and PiMP, insist that Obama caused the current price hikes even though domestic production is higher now than it was when Bush was in office....hilarious.

    Maybe he's scouring the forum archives for the "thread after thread" he claims to have seen where "idiotic liberals refuse to allow drilling"?

    Does that matter? They are referring back to a Fox News piece which sets out the case very well.

    What is the theme.....FREE THE US FROM FOREIGN OIL...that all we hear from the Democrats....

    What don't they understand about drilling our own and using our own oil........won't that free us from foreign oil by at least the amount we drill and produce ?

    Using domestic oil means NOT IMPORTING FOREIGN OIL that oil
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    Murdoch-owned paper explains that the USA is now a net exporter of oil for the first time since 1949, when Harry Truman was president:

    ...the U.S. sent abroad 753.4 million barrels of everything from gasoline to jet fuel in the first nine months of this year, while it imported 689.4 million barrels.

    the argument that the president can or cannot control gas prices depends on which side has the presidency and which side is making its case

    the reality, the president cannot do much to control the price of gas in the long or short run, it is driven by speculators
    I pledge allegiance to the constitution of the United States of America as amended by the legislative and executive branches and interpreted by the Supreme Court

    We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America

    Blabo, Dix-lie and PiMP all insist that Republican presidents have decreased retail gas prices (because they love America) while Obama (the evil one) has misused the presidency to make them higher by refusing to allow domestic oil drilling....

    What do you suppose they speculate on? Could it be future supply and demand along with current supply and demand?

    I bet if a President were to announce an initiative that would affect supply and/or demand that would change the speculation.

    They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "
