Confusing Obama

Ok, just so we’re clear – since a Democrat, Obama, is President, the President of the United States is not responsible for high or rising gas prices. Once a Republican is President, that will change of course – but right now, they are saying Obama isn’t responsible or really can’t do anything.

My liberal Facebook friend posted the picture below.

When we try to explain that the President isn’t responsible for commodities pricing (like gasoline), the President (Bush) is at fault. Apparently, when Republicans are President, they have more control over things somehow. Ok, got it.

I paid like $3.79 this morning. It took $47 to fill up my Acura RSX (2.0 liter, 4-cylinder). If gas hits $5 per gallon, then it’ll take $65 to fill it up (13 gallon tank). Yikers.
