That is a dishonest description. You could just as easily measure from the peak half a year earlier and claim prices are lower under Obama.
Obama certainly is not helping lower prices, but he isn't the source of doubling prices either.
The democrats want higher prices and exporting oil is not the answer, getting rid of democrats is. Prices will then come down and the oil companies can then export.
It is a false claim that oil companies and others will continue to invest to keep up our production while rising production pushes prices lower than the rest of the world.
Just as in previous times and with any item, when supply begins to climb until prices begins to drop, supply is going to drop. Such a policy will just move jobs and investment to other countries.
It will not lower prices beyond a short term dip. It will cost us jobs, trade balance and long term higher prices.
That is a dishonest description. ???
Just look at the gas price when you pull into the station!
