BartBuzz Champion Author Atlanta Posts:3,918 Points:806,010 Joined:Aug 2006	Message Posted: Jul 4, 2009 8:40:24 AM Ignore BartBuzz Report Abuse Obama is a progressive liberal. Of course he doesn't have a problem with $4 gas OR spending other people's money. Remember when he told "Joe the Plumber" he wanted to share the wealth....or, in other words, redistribute the wealth.

All you have to do is read most of the comments here at this GasBuddy site. Most, one way or another, say the gov't should "do something" about high gasoline costs.

GasholeMI Champion Author Lansing Posts:5,279 Points:758,840 Joined:Jul 2008	Message Posted: Jul 4, 2009 8:35:32 AM Ignore GasholeMI Report Abuse I have a problem with gas prices so high. It not only affects my personal economy but it hinders the economy of the entire US also. I would think that $4/gallon gas would be a concern whether it was a fast or slow increase.

psuray All-Star Author Hartford Posts:919 Points:223,650 Joined:Feb 2009	Message Posted: Jul 4, 2009 8:28:11 AM Ignore psuray Report Abuse This guy is right. People never listened to Obama before they voted. He has a democrat congress coming up with a climate bill or whatever they call it this weak (the trick is if the people don't like it change the name, it was cap and trade). Europe has had high gas prices ever since I can remember- why? Socialism and the taxation that goes with it!
