Interesting just they other day didn't he say but what can the President really do about gas prices?
Obama's promises are as empty as this can

It's a shame politicians aren't ever held to account on their promises.

Note: If there was any doubt that Obama is intentionally trying to destroy America, his energy policy dispells that possibility completely.
Either that, or he is single handedly the dumbest elected official in this history of this country and makes GW look like Albert Einstein.
While his idiotic monetary policy skyrockets food and fuel prices leading to global unrest on the one hand, he blames evil "oil speculators" on the other hand and feeds the public this horseshit line about ending oil subsidies to lower the price of gas. And while that game of circular logic is spinning its wheels, he wants to push his fraudulent green agenda, electric cars, cap and trade, ethanol and windmill subsidies while praising Brazil's move for off shore drilling and refusing to allow American companies to do the same.
I mean, if he doesn't have the intelligence of a severed nut sack, he must really want to destroy this country. Can anyone give alternative explanations?

how about the obvious answer
you're a moron
If you want to know the primary culprits behind rising food and oil prices it would be: increase in worldwide demand especially from emerging markets, speculators (exacerbated by a weak dollar), bad weather, and a bad wheat harvest....and/or if you really wanted to blame a person you could point the finger at Bernake. The idea that Obama is somehow causing high commodity prices in order to intentionally destroy America is beyond laughable.
Seems to me if Obama really wants to destroy the country all he has to do is not negotiate with Repubs (or even antagonize them maybe by insisting every school girl gets a voucher for a free abortion) so that they don't extend the debt ceiling. That will really fuck up the country (something you think Oama wants) and he can even blame it on the Repubs. It's an easy win - win for Obama

Obama reappointed Bernake and said he approves of the job he is doing.

I guess Bernake must want to intentionally destroy the country too, perhaps to get revenge on how America treated his secret Kenyan father that he never knew

Bernake is a disaster and another one of the seemless disasters of GWB that Obama adopted as his own.

he's holding his first post FOMC press conference in about 45 minutes
maybe one of those savvy Faux News reporters will ask why he is trying to destroy the country

I'm sure there is at least one reporter there who would like to vaporize his own credibility by asking such an idiotic question
perhaps Glenn Beck will be in attendance

Only a leftist idiot like yourself could approve of the counterfeiting operation Bernake has run so far. Spend spend spend spend spend. and when that does not work - oh blame the problem on not spending enough.
Typical leftist bullshit that is so far beyond discredited at this point you would think you would stay silent on this topic by now.

how many times have I told you that I don't approve of a lot of shit that he's doing
I think the big banks should be broken up (they are now 2-3 times bigger than the point when they were too big to fail), I think Dodd-Frank is a give away to the big banks and and a fuck you to the consumers/tax payers who bailed them out, etc......

The CTFC has raised margin requirements on Silver Futures 6 times so far, and only once on oil..

As Price of Gas Hits Record, EPA Blocks Oil Drilling in Alaska
Right Side News ^ | 4/26/2011 | Mike Brownfield
EPA Blocks Oil Drilling in Alaska
There are an estimated 27 billion barrels of oil waiting to be tapped in the Arctic Ocean, off the coast of Alaska. But after spending five years and nearly $4 billion, Shell Oil Company has been forced to abandon its efforts to drill for oil in the region.
(Related: 3 Inch Lizard May Shut Down Texas and New Mexico Oil and Gas Operations)
With gas at $4 per gallon and higher, one might think that more oil would be a good thing. So what’s the road block? The Environmental Protection Agency. Fox News reports that the EPA is withholding necessary air permits because of a one square mile village of 245 people, 70 miles from the off-shore drilling site. From Fox News’ Dan Springer:
The EPA’s appeals board ruled that Shell had not taken into consideration emissions from an ice-breaking vessel when calculating overall greenhouse gas emissions from the project. Environmental groups were thrilled by the ruling.
“What the modeling showed was in communities like Kaktovik, Shell’s drilling would increase air pollution levels close to air quality standards,” said Eric Grafe, Earthjustice’s lead attorney on the case.
Who at the EPA made the decision? Springer writes:
The Environmental Appeals Board has four members: Edward Reich, Charles Sheehan, Kathie Stein and Anna Wolgast. All are registered Democrats and Kathie Stein was an activist attorney for the Environmental Defense Fund. Members are appointed by the EPA administrator.
President Barack Obama said in his weekly address on Saturday that “there’s no silver bullet that can bring down gas prices right away,” but that one thing America can do is pursue “safe and responsible production of oil at home.” Too bad his words and his actions are not one and the same. Aside for the EPA’s decision on Shell, the Obama administration has imposed a months-long moratorium on deepwater offshore drilling that curtailed domestic production and sent some seven drilling rigs elsewhere.
The Heritage Foundation’s Nicolas Loris recommends the following actions for Congress and President Obama if they truly want to expand access to America’s domestic energy supply:
Allow access to domestic reserves. Permitting exploration of reserves in Alaska, Colorado, Wyoming, and federal waters offshore would inject confidence into the market, create jobs, and stimulate the economy. Roll back regulatory burdens on companies. Strapping companies with onerous regulatory processes only hinders access. Litigation opportunities should be limited and the permitting process made more rational. Issue offshore drilling permits. Lifting the de facto moratorium on offshore drilling permits would gain companies access to domestic resources and increase our domestic energy supply.

Hypocrites. That guy in the audience really made a fool out of Obama.

A hybrid Van?
WTF is wrong with this asshole? Yeah - and obama acts like he really gives a fuck too. ::) ::) ::)
He wants prices sky high and we all know it!

I was thinking the same thing. Telling a private citizen he needs to buy a hybrid van just shows how out of touch Obama is with mainstream America.

He mocked that guy when he said he had 10 kids.
That guy should have said "My ten kids are needed to work to pay taxes to fund your communisitic goals your dirty marxist pofs!"

It's responses like the above that make me realize an intelligent discussion on the issues with you is a waste of time. Insulting you is much easier and takes a lot less effort. Tim Geithner, Bernake etc. have actually been pushing for a weaker dollar through massive and systematic inflation (an "orderly transition" from the dollar being the # 1 global currency was the term of art that has been thrown around to explain why a fundamental downgrade in the value of US currency is acceptable). A weak dollar leads to inflation which leads to the basic credo of Obama's ideology-- spend less, consume less, produce less, be happier with less and let the rest of the world trample on the influence of the United States. Obama has preached this mantra from day one on everything from energy to the economy to foreign policy. Speculators make decisions that are spearheaded by politicians and their policies to a large extent. Obama's idiotic and incoherent middle eastern policy+ his idiotic energy policy+ his administrations idiotic monetary and economic policies have unquestionably played a huge role as to why gas prices and food prices have skyrocketed. If you can't figure that out, then you probably lack the common sense to wipe your own ass without a team of medical experts by your side.
When the dollar is strong, prices drop-- when the dollar is weak prices rise. When we print more money our currency is worth less. Under Obama we have printed more monopoly money than any President in US history. In case you missed it, our nations credit rating is about to be downgraded. Why is that exactly? Sarah Palin? Rush Limbaugh? What predictable and moronic leftist talking point is it this week? For someone who allegedly works in finance, you don't appear to have the slightest clue as to how basic economics work.
Emerging markets consuming more and droughts? ::) Your responses seem to multiply exponentially in terms of stupidity on a daily basis. Were those the new vocabulary words you learned on Rachel Maddow today?

PS- I hope he doesn't negotiate with the Republicans and is forced to run on his record instead of relying on his lap dogs in the media and idiots like you.
His record his shit, his policies are shit and if a spotlight is sent his way so he can't hide behind his race or GW Bush, he has zero chance of getting elected again.

Hey gw , deal with it and go buy a hybrid van! Lol.

Straw Man has been avoiding the thread I've been spamming about the S&P downgrade for 2 weeks now so I'll just say it here:
Straw Man thinks Obama didn't spend enough on the stimulus and thinks we're not spending enough now. He actually argues that we can spend our way out of this. He knows things the experts at S&P and the IMF don't know. ::)
Good post.

why no mention of the actual supply and demand of the underlying commodity in your attempt at an econ lesson?

That's total bullshit. Not extending the debt ceiling would not "really fuck up the country." It would cause some short-term pain for very appreciable long-term gain. Unfortunately, our system of government encourages government officials to look only at the short-term and not the long-term.
