I am Just Stating the Facts.

You claim you are "only stating the facts"....

Let me give you 2 key points in your own thread in which you don't "state the facts"

1. Romney didn't claim he would get the unemployment rate to 6% by the end of his 1st term....Romney actually claimed he would get the unemployment rate to 6% or lower !

2. The POTUS can lower or increase gas prices; thru any number of executive actions or in-actions. For example releasing supplies from our national stockpile would typically lower gas prices. Keeping Keystone oil off the market, not approving federal offshore leases, higher/Lower CAFE standards...any number of actions by the POTUS can drive gasoline prices.


When one claims he is "only stating the facts" you should do just that.

JD you must have missed my numerous post- I stated a million times that the lowering or the increase in gas prices has nothing to do with the POTUS- even Obama stated that when Romney try to sneak in:" when Bush left office gas was $1.79//" I have seen countless of Republicans blame Obama when gas price peaked.
Also, are you really that stupid to say Bush wasn't in a recession? The economy collapsed on his watch, the housing market crashed on his watch- are you saying if Bush was still in office that somehow the results would have been different? Don't be a dumb ass- even Bush admits the economy was in shambles when he left- Bush passed a mess to to Obama and no one but you denies that fact. Originally Posted by wellendowed1911
And let's not forget; Obama's campaign (and presidential) promises have been mostly lies.......starting with

Obama pledges unemployment wouldn't go above 8% with his stimulus plan.



History tells us Romney has been proven right on domestic and foreign policy issues while Obama has been proven wrong.

This thread doesn't help Obama's place in history; it only buttresses the many lies of his presidency (what I call American's Lost Decade).
Still waiting for you to tell us how Obama's sky high DOW has improved the economic health of American families....................


Where is your proof that Obama's economic policies have improved the economic health of American families. Despite large gains in the DOW, American Household wealth for top families is still below peak years under Bush and for the bottom rung....Obama has been disaster. Household wealth for this group is worse than ever in our recent history.

The chart below shows that both groups (rich and poor have not recovered).

Additionally, the chart below shows the net gain in jobs have gone to Foreign Born Workers not American born workers during the Obama years!

There was a release/sale in 2011 of about 30 million barrels. There were 5 million barrels released in April and May of 2014.

I agree; in fact, one can make a very sound argument that Obama has done just the opposite = kept prices higher than necessary.

And there is NO doubt that Obama would sign into law an increase in the Federal gasoline tax (if that legislation made it's way to his desk).

Obama wants higher gasoline taxes.....

Where's the committee recommendation on raising gas taxes?

Where's the legislation?

Where's the congressman proposing ithers legislation?

Where's the link from POTUS supporting higher federal gasoline taxes? (Probably with the MLK quote we've all be asking for you to post!)

Why DO YOU CONTINUE TO SPIN, EXAGGERATE AND LIE? with you, every silver lining is backed by bullshit. it must be exhausting for you being so miserable and bitter every fucking day. I know you've got no problem sharing the sunshine with the world. But ...

You're making shit up again, Whir-LIE-turd!

AssUP the Village Troll; doesn't understand the meaning of the operative words "would" and "if"...

Try to convince us that Obama wouldn't sign into law an increase in the gas tax.....we know he wants passage of a carbon tax...intelligent people know Obama wouldn't oppose gasoline excise tax legislation that is currently being discussed on Capitol Hill.

Obama's carbon tax will increase fossil fuel prices. FACT JACK....Obama favors increasomg taxes on working Americans. But AssUp the Village Troll thinks otherwise !

In reality the Obama economy has been saved by Sara Palin; her "drill baby drill" mantra (and fracking) has given American workers the largest tax cut in recent American history......and our economy is doing better because of the lower gas prices. Lower prices have done more for the American middle class consumer pocketbooks than the sky high DOW Wellendowed touts !

Obama should thank Sara Palin....oh the irony.....dimwit Democrats opposed drilling and fracking, they should thank their lucky stars!

You can thank Obama for investing in alternative fuel sources which scares the shit out of the middle east- the most economical way to bring down oil produces is to not use the product or have a demand for the product.

The "back story" of the government loan program is companies filed bankruptcy, cleansed themselves of private debt, and re-affirmed the government debt, so private lenders got screwed and the government funding (taxpayers' money) of the companies like Solyndra are "back in business.'

I can just imagine the Saudis are scared shitless over Obaminable's ponzi schemes.
