Gas and Obama

You're going to die when you read my next sentence.

Really, call 9-1-1, because this is going to send you into a proverbial tizzy.

(I don't know if that's the right expression, I've just always wanted to say "proverbial tizzy.")

I saw a segment on Fox News that I actually--gasp--agree with.

Hear me out.

There was a segment about rising gas prices, and how nobody's on Obama's case about it even though when costs were as high during the Bush administration, there were endless news stories about how this was another notable failure during his Presidency.

Now, obviously, whenever you talk about the news, you sadly have to factor in spin, but here are the facts:

~ Gas is as high as it was when it peaked during the Bush administration.
~ It's true that people don't seem as concerned, and if they are, it's certainly not being reported as much.
~ I haven't heard Obama say anything on the subject.
~ The prices don't seem to be hitting a ceiling. They seem to be going even further up.

So what's the deal?

I have no idea.

All I know is that I do think it's only fair to make as much noise about it now as we did when Bush was in office. I realize that gas is a limited resource, and there's only a certain amount we can do about the fact that we can't rely on it forever, but regardless of that, we attached it to President Bush as one of his screw-ups, and now it's occurring again.

So maybe we need to make sure it's at least acknowledged by the current administration that gas prices are out of control.

The reporter on Fox News said--"What's good for the goose is good for the gander."

I have to agree with the blowhard moron.

Please Mr. President, make sure this doesn't happen too often.
