I has witnessed it happen in California and it is happening now under Obama. The Greenies go wild and chase industry out.

.
Green is just a euphemism for something that Costs more and doesn't last as long.

And it's all about self-esteem and feeling good. Someone builds that second home - it's 10,000 square feet - with large patios and walkways all around - and they pay that premium for some Green feature that's basically tacked on.

Let's see who will Obama blame?

1) Bush
2) Those gun-totting religious people who drive pick-ups
3) Of course Republicans
4) Americans who consume too much
5) The Oil Companies

We know what's next a windfall profit tax on the Oil Companies as those greedy corporations who don't pay their fair share.

However not a word will be mention about his own policies & that of his party.

ZeroHedge put this up. Interesting on the S & P and the amount of gasoline it purchases are diverging. Something is screwy.

As for my opinion I don't have one. Just weird. But just maybe Uncle Ben is lying to us about inflation is under control?

Soaring gas prices leave Raleigh budget writers guessing
Posted: 4:40 p.m. today
Updated: 6:48 p.m. today

ALEIGH, N.C. — Soaring gas prices are not only causing problems for drivers. Raleigh officials are also trying to figure out how to budget for police cars, fire engines, garbage trucks and other city-owned vehicles.

“Fuel is a big part of our budget,” Raleigh City Manager Russell Allen said Tuesday.

City officials are working on the next budget, which begins in July. They are looking at past trends and expert forecasts to determine how much to set aside.

“Nobody has a crystal ball, so we do try to be conservative and budget on the high side,” Allen said.

Gary Harris, executive director of the North Carolina Petroleum Marketers Association, said some pundits estimate gas prices could be just over $4 a gallon by the end of April.

If prices top $4 a gallon and stay there, it could put a big pinch on the city's budget.

Obama: '...wasn't my fault'


and


White House seeks to deflect blame over rising gas prices

...said White House press secretary Jay Carney. "The rising gas prices clearly the effect of a variety of factors on the global price of oil," he told reporters, citing geopolitical unrest


Good point Jay, and what is it Barry has been doing in the mideast to make it stable?

It's the other way 'round. The Obama administration is the political wing of the MSM.

Obama directly blamed Bush Policies for high Gas and Energy problems then, now it has nothing to do with the U.S. Pres.

President Obama does not "accept responsibility" for high gas prices, his spokesman indicated today, arguing that Obama has done everything he could to bring down the price of oil and blaming the high gas prices on oil price increases caused by global factors...snipped

We already know what they going to do - this Class Warfare thing has been cooking for so long - it's no stretch at all to Demonize the Oil Companies - and lay it all on them, even though Nancy, Harry, and Obammy laid it all on Bush and Cheney when they were in office.

BOR led the charge the other night - Blame the Oil Companies, eat the Rich, Hate Whitey - and Post-election we'll send lots of Federal monies to your district.
