Gasoline Prices East Los Angeles Last Week –Image: Rick/Twitter
(24/7WallStreet) Most of the focus on the rise in gasoline prices caused by a surge in oil prices have been in effect of the march toward $4.00 a gallon–the focus is misplaced, at least to the extent in several regions of the country, most notably California where a gallon of premium gas is expected to surpass $5.00 a gallon.
Where is the outrage by Democrats?
Flashback: Remember in 2008 when then candidate for president Barack Obama blamed President George Bush for high gas prices and claimed they were due to previous failed energy policies or when House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) blasted President George Bush for rising gasoline prices-In April, 2008 Sen Majority Ldr Harry Reid (D-NV) echoed Pelosi’s comments claiming that gasoline prices were “the number one issue facing America today.”
