It is quite amazing, the turn that many on the left have had, with respect to gas prices. What was once KNOWN to be those in power serving their masters in big oil, has now become --high gas prices are a good thing--- for a number of reasons, that the left and their media puppets just make up.
Go to about the 4 minute mark of the clip, and you can hear the likes of Barbara Boxer, Nancy Pelosi and then senator Barack Obama discuss the devastation of $1.80 a gallon gasoline....then try not to laugh as you hear now President Obama explain to us how the $3.50 a gallon gas is a sign of a good economy....as a bonus , you can get to hear the talking heads from the various news outlets--you know, the :truthful ones"--- try and spin it as they read their White house talking points almost verbatim.
