Easy answer — to the MSM, when a Republican is president, the price of gas is too high.

BS media propaganda story to make idiots think 3.50+ for a gallon of gas should be the norm.

Only when a Republican is President...otherwise, it seems to be no big deal..even when gas prices far exceed those of the prior administration./s

Gasoline prices dropped below $2 in late 2008. Since then, gasoline prices have been on a steadily approaching the $4 mark.
Gee. I wonder what happened in late 2008 that sent gasoline prices doubling???

Taxes, the favorite intoxicant of DC political parasites, both federal and state are a contributor.
The United States federal excise tax on gasoline is 18.4 cents per gallon (cpg) and 24.4 cents per gallon (cpg) for diesel fuel. On average, as of April 2012, state and local taxes add 31.1 cents to gasoline and 30.2 cents to diesel for a total US average fuel tax of 49.5 cents (cpg) per gallon for gas and 54.6 cents per gallon (cpg) for diesel.
Link to each states gas tax: http://www.gaspricewatch.com/web_gas_taxes.php
Then, depending where one lives, there could be local/municipality/city et al fuel taxes.
Here’s a link to another site that has an interative map of the US and it gives each state’s tax rate also: http://www.bankrate.com/finance/taxes/gas-taxes-by-state.aspx

the third chart indicates gasoline might have gotten to the price it is now, anyway, going by the rate of increase it was doing since 2003, if that rate of increase had continued without the 2008 recesssion
