In all regards, pos mullah obamlong has only islamic muslim interests at heart!

"Would Do Nothing"

Correct tense, given this idiotic tax won't happen, period.

Thankfully 0 won't be around much longer...

SSDD.

The White Mosque will send it to terrorists
and the GOP will do nothing — except support it
and pretend they did not.

[Son House]

Tax to the max the Theocracies that want to sell their oil here.

RE:”resident Obama is planning $300 billion in infrastructure and other green energy-related projects over the next ten years, which is part of a string of last minute budget requests that have zero chance of passing Congress. The president's plan to pay for it all: a $10-a-barrel oil tax “

Next 10 years ??

That AH is out in less than a year.

What an arrogant $%%#@

[Gamecock]

We could apply this money to shovel ready projects!

[EQAndyBuzz]

Maybe this is one of those things that is designed for Hillary to come out against it. That would make her look less socialist than Bernie who would probably say, “why stop at 19 a barrel,”

[DoodleDawg]

The tax will be frittered away on pie-in-the-sky projects that nobody wants like high-speed rail and electric cars. In the mean time airports and roads and bridges will continue to decay.

[ArcadeQuarters]

We need to artificially raise prices because heating your home and driving aren’t expensive enough.

[cuban leaf]

He’s just making a political statement. He hates being a lame duck.

[joethedrummer]

Pardon me, but if I remember correctly, the President does NOT have power to levy taxes.

Isn’t that up to our Congress???

[Pearls Before Swine]

It’s not a problem. The legislation will be coupled with a “Black Drivers Matter” rebate which will give favored citizens (and non-citizens) a 25 cent a gallon affirmative transportation rebate.

Equal protection under the law—fuggedaboutit!

[sport]

It is according to the Constitution, but, the Constitution, as written, is long gone. Now all it means is that the unborn and partially born can be slaughtered and their remains sold and used in various other things, criminals enjoy Government protection while the innocent get Government prosecution and persecution. Tow homosexuals have the “right” to “marry” each other. For starters.

[camle]

it won’t help, but it will hurt twice as bad when gas prices go up again after the election....adding to the impetus to buy ‘green’ cars.

[mbynack]

I thought we fixed the infrastructure when we spent billions on “Shovel Ready Projects”.

[libertylover]

given this idiotic tax won't happen, period.

I don't know, with McConnell and Ryan...

[trebb]

Obana’s dream of “necessarily skyrocketing costs of energy” got thwarted by a little reality - now he needs to double down in his attempts to turn what’s left of the middle class into welfare parasites by nickel and diming them to death.

[refermech]

He meant the infrastructure of the democrat party.

No doubt the afrostructure too.
