you guys are fools if you think obama is in complete control of your gass price. You're also further into idiocy if you think the next man can drop it 2-3$ a gallon. God this country is full of idiots.

difference between obama and bush is the latter manipulated gas prices by buying up millions of barrels of oil from private refinaries in 2002 (causing the price of barrel of oil to double overnight) and then invading iraq, taking 1.3 million barrels of oil per day offline.

not only did bush help his buddies in the oil industry become richer, but helped opec realize that americans would pay $4-5 for gas. which is why they have publicly said they would do everything in their powers (cutting production) to keep oil prices artificially high.
