Gas prices have doubled since Barack Obama became president. With wages stagnant, unemployment high and food prices rising at the fastest rate since the 1970s, this imposes real hardship on many Americans

Yes, but the MSM is hardly mentioning these things. I went through the entire section of my local rag(San Jose Mercury) and there was not a mention of gas prices or food inflation. There were stories about the Royal Wedding and how required state budget cuts will hurt the elderly. What else would you expect from a publication that is essentially a subsidiary of the Democratic Party.

You can bet your last dollar that if a Republican were president and these same things were occurring, it would be on the front page of all the newspapers day after day. It would be the lead story on the Nightly News (CBS,NBC,ABC, PBS, etc). And it would be running 24/7 on CNN and MSNBC. This is an undeniable fact.

The sad and ironic fact is that so many of the people being hurt are people who invested in hope and change back in 2008. What fools.

Just like the million applicants for 50k McJobs was casually disregarded, the impact of $4 gas and surging food prices is ignored also.
