That’s exactly it.
Hubby and I were talking about “why” the prices have done this at this particular time.
I wouldn’t be suprised if they are being intentionally manipulated by “whoever”....and I don’t care.
“Whoever” is doing this can keep it up for all I care.
If this is what it takes to keep this guy from destroying the country, than so be it.
We can afford a short time with this problem....we can’t afford another 4 years of Obama.
“...intentionally manipulated by ‘whoever’ ...”
I agree and I think intentional manipulation is occurring. My fear is that the intentional manipulators are also (among others) Obama’s middle eastern Muslim brethren and the prices may suddenly come down right around election day.
I’m not a paranoid conspiracy tin foil type, but I do think there could be a loose coalition of international powerful elites who have an ability to influence these matters.
It’s inflation and it’s Obama’s fault. it’s inflation that drives the price of everything higher be it butter, beer, gold, or gasoline. It is not supply and demand driving prices up and it is not a group of rich republicans trying to torpedo Obama. Obama did this to us and to himself. this is the consequence of inflation. period.
My only concern is that they are doing this now, with the plans to lower it to $2.00 in Sept & Oct and say “wow Obama is great!”
I've been thinking the same thing, however I believe that those who are manipulating the prices will continue to raise them until about September, when they'll magically crash, and Obama the messiah will claim the credit for the newly reduced gasoline prices.

or maybe they are being raised now only to decrease right before the election so OB can claim credit.
IF WE HAVE TO RIDE OUR BIKES, WALK, CARRY PIGGYBACK,CRAWL OR CARPOOL, WE WILL GET THERE. MAKE NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT FACT, mr.zero.
You know the will be bussing their welfare dem voters in, by BIG BUSSES, so they won't be disinfranchised, doncha know?
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.
