Average retail gasoline prices have more than doubled under President Obama, according to government statistics, rising from $1.84 per gallon to $3.85 per gallon.
The average gasoline price is calculated by the Energy Information Agency, and shows that over the past 43 months of President Obama’s term retail gasoline prices have more than doubled, rising from an average of $1.84 per gallon to $3.85 per gallon.
Rising gasoline prices were particularly prevalent in August, which saw a 9.0 percent rise in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for gasoline, a rise that almost entirely accounts for the general increase in prices seen by families across the country over the past month.

“Gasoline Prices More than Double Under Obama: $1.84 to $3.85 (Where’s the MSM on this one?)”
Haven’t you heard? The President just can’t do much regarding gas prices...
(Never mind that when Bush was President he was directly responsible for every small fluctuation!)
The MSM is unabashedly a part of the 0 campaign, they need to be boycotted and put out of business. It’s outrageous.
People are driving less.
On my daily commute this last week we have had thre major rain storms that came through, but still I see people riding bikes, with flashing red LED lights and miniature HID headlights, riding through the rain at 4am.
America was built on wheels, the higher fuel gets the less the wheels will roll.
Any day now I expect to see carts with donkies gathered behind the supermarkets delivering goods, or school buses being pulled by copies of the Budweiser horse team.
2016 the movie states that Americans real wealth has gone down 40%...so if you wown a house worth $200,000 in 2007, it is now worth $120,000. Thanks, ZERO.
He will do better in his second term.
That $120,000 dollar home will still be worth $120,000 but it will take $500,000 dollars worth of Obama bucks to buy it.
Your weekly grocery bill will triple,and gas should go to $10.00 a gallon.A $5.00 bill will get you a Snickers bar.Your life savings will be eaten by inflation, and anyone on a fixed income, will be totally “fixed” allright.
50% tax increase scheduled on the working poor under Obama and the Democrats. Where is the Mainstream Media on that One?
Obama and his merry band of greenies think that gasoline should be double the price it is now.
Thanks tobyhill.
When Bush was president mediabots staked out gas stations early in the morning, waiting breathlessly for the sign to change from “3 something” to “4 something.”
Now that the Great Redistributionist is in power, they pretend they don’t see that gas is over $4.
It’s deliberate and intentional.
It doesn’t really matter because by now everyone knows that IT’S NOT HIS FAULT.
Justice would be served if Democrats wouldn’t have the money for gas to get to the polls.
If Romney replaced Obama, everyone would be better off by getting gas prices down even by just $1 per gallon.

When I bring up the difference in gas prices,the black people at work say “the president can’t change gas prices”!! Never mind his pipeline vetoes,etc.
Sadly, for the overwhelming majority of black people the ONLY thing that matters is obama’s blackness.
Remember these are people who won’t “snitch” on the criminals living among them.
THIS election is probably the most important election of my life!!!
obama must go.
(which keeps them quite busy in the trying, given that the wannabe fuhrer is a dickless punk)
They don’t buy gas. They live in the northeastern corridor and travel by cab, train or plane.
Gas prices could double again and they’d barely notice.
