I think $4 per gallon gas is right around the corner.

Watch how the media will be spinning how high gas prices are GOOD for America now....

Is it time for the “When Obama was elected gas was only $1.89 a gallon” bumper sticker?

We’ve already had four bucks a gallon.

Yeah, when we went into Iraq for all the oil! “No blood for oil!” Remember that chant from the hand wringing whiners?

Yup, that gambit worked out just fine didn’t it? The price of oil is really cratering.

Gas will be 8 to 10 dollars a gallon by July. The dollar will collapse.

And how much longer this will go on because all of the drilling rigs have left our coasts due to Obama’s drilling ban ...

Remember about two years ago when all the gas prices “magically” dropped?

$3.15? That's about twenty cents less than here.

I have a diesel now. That's about $3.30

just thinking the same thing except i believe the price was closer to $1.70/gallon...

never mind the fact oil prices are close to tripling since obozo took over- where’s all the screaming and yelling for the dopes who claimed the fix was in when GWB was president...

Well at least we won’t have gas shortages like the Jimmy Carter days. Ahhhhh the days of if your license plate ends in an even number you can buy gas today but you must wait in a mile long line.

Coincidentally, the Gov't will soon be pushing us all to buy one of these. Curious how all drilling for oil is being curtailed at the same time.

I have been paying over $3.50 per gallon for Chevron mid grade. It won’t be long before it goes up another buck. This is in NW Washington state.

I was kid then. I made a small kid fortune selling coffee and donuts to those in line before school during that period. Mom laid out the initial investment of 20$, bought me several boxes of plain/powdered sugar/cinammon donuts and coffee and fixins. Got up at 5 am, brewed coffee and filled a few thermos jugs, loaded it in my wagon and walked a couple of blocks to sell a cup of coffee and a donut for 50 cents each. Made out like a bandit. Maybe my minor son will find a similar circumstance....although he will probably have to get some sort of license to do it today.

If only the car companies would use the same technology as those CSX trains they advertise as getting 500 miles per gallon. :-)
