Meh, you posted a link to a guy who thinks Obama is intentionally driving up gas prices. That's pretty uneducated. He has literally no control over gas prices so he could not drive them up even if he wanted to. How does this guy get to write the news?
All you have to know is Obama's energy secretary says we need to pay more for gas.

That is not the same as intentionally driving up the prices. We do pay much less than any other country, and he may or may not have a point, but no single person in the country is able to drive up prices. Oil prices seem to depend on a multitude of different things, supply being one, and the other even larger one being market speculation.
Wrong Obama is stopping drilling and paying other countries to drill more.

Remarks at American Chamber of Commerce Shanghai and U.S.-China Business Council, Shanghai
"With me are 24 American companies that will play an important role in meeting the president’s ambitious export goals.
These are companies of different sizes that operate in different industries. But together, they represent the best that America has to offer in:
* clean energy generation;
* energy efficiency; and
* electricity storage, transmission and distribution."
"I’m proud to say that President Obama has already done more to mitigate climate change and invest in clean energy than any president in U.S. history.
In just the last year:
* He signed a Recovery Act that included $80 billion in clean energy investments; and
* He implemented tough new efficiency standards for automobiles, appliances and consumer electronics."

Suffering its worst monthly performance since September 2010, the dollar weakened to a new 2½-year low Friday as investors turned increasingly pessimistic about the U.S. economy and the policy prescriptions designed to improve it.
Longstanding worries among market participants about the Federal Reserve's ultra-loose monetary policy have converged with growing concerns about the widening U.S. fiscal imbalance. Both are considered legacies of crisis-era stimulus policy that has kept U.S. interest rates at rock bottom, but sent the federal debt soaring to unsustainable levels.
As a result, the dollar is hunkered at multiyear lows against most of its major counterparts.

Great our economy is in the tank and Obama is doing nothing for jobs but is giving money for research.
Obama is costing jobs by stopping drilling and he is hurting the economy. This green crap does nothing to help the people at this time of economic crisis
