Yeah, let's reward a man who bailed on his country with the Presidency. If given the choice, i am sure the older kids in my neighborhood from low to middle class families who were drafted during the vietnam war would have done the same thing but they werent given that choice.

Why couldnt he defer his mission work or serve as a concientious objector ? He had more choices than others in his age group and he made dishonorable choices.

Are you referring to Billy Jeff? He already was president.
 
Just heard the best political one liner ! Barrack standing next to Christie, while not letting a good disaster go to waste........................................."We won't leave you behind!"

WTF.....................Benghazi anyone ?

Hildybeast has a lot to answer for as does her cigar-dipping "husband".
 
Or Obamas other buddy Ayers that was planting bombs in the US during the vietnam war.
There's also some speculation that the Ayers family paid for Jugears Obunghole's degree, too.

Far too much has not been addressed about this guy - I can't imagine how much it's costing Soros to keep it quiet.
 
Still trying to figure out how pointing at Bush's failures is considered moving Forward....
 
We can't move forward until we can come to grips with who we need to blame our inefficiencies on.
 
DNC talking point wonks get their asses kicked here and now lie low, licking their wounds?

How convenient that your data only goes to 2007, eh?

Prices were consistently below $2 from 2000 up until Katrina in 2005. The run-up in price since then is directly tied to government policy -- a combination of EPA regs so strict that nobody can build a new refinery if they wanted to, aging refineries being taken offline vs. bringing them up to current regs, and a devaluation of the dollar thanks to our excessive deficits.

Bush started the ball rolling on the deficits, but Obama kicked it another 80 yards down the field.

Had we expanded domestic production *and* encouraged an expansion of refining capabilities in 2006, we'd probably be back at $2 gas again. The same tree huggers who want renewable energy block the expansion of nuclear and loosening of EPA regs on refineries.

Delaware upgrade

Detroit Upgrade

Elk Point New refinery

McPherson upgrade

These are just a few of the refineries that have been upgraded. The investment needed to build one from scratch is so high that no one wants to. Besides, our capacity has increased and demand is down so now we export refined fuel. Go figure.
