Taken at a gas station within walking distance of the White House:
I thought Soros manipulated it in 2008 with his speculative buying, maybe, there is some retaliation going on that he can’t control?
The oil companies and gas stations around the country have a reason to be ticked off at Obama for his traditional fuels policies.
The next really bad mistake to watch for by Obungo’s administration will be price fixing. When he does that, gas lines will form and he will be toast.
That looks like Foggy Bottom, closer to Georgetown than the White House... though it could be Pennsylvania Avenue. Isn’t that the Watergate hotel in the background?
I think he will make a critical misjudgment and put in “price controls” to try to win over the populous. It will result in gas lines and that should finish off his chances.
The one problem I see is if he does it in the month before the election. Will there be time for the lines to form to offset the goodwill the stupid people will feel about him doing something?
We need to remind everyone that price controls caused the gas lines of Jimmy Carter’s administration.
