The President can do little about the price of gas. The priceis being raised by speculators on Wall Street, even as the country has large supplies and use is down.
Great cartoon! Whether or not the president controls the price of gas is beside the point – when a Republican is president, the MSM blames him, when a Democrat is president, they ignore it.
Gas went up above 4 bucks during the Bush Administration, I can’t remember Fox News even saying it once. At least the media (I wish Liberal Media) does give it enough credence (it’s not that important a story yet and only Fox News makes it a big deal cause any economic bad news is good news when a “Demo” Crat is in the White House.
Well the Private sector ain’t doing such a grand job but you want me to trust my means of transportation in their hands when their goal is simply to squeeze maximum profit from me. I think I’ll go with a balance where my government intervenes when necessary and checks the raw power of money

I don’t “FEEL GOOD” when gas and groceries go off the chart. This did not happen when Bush was president!
