I love the armchair quarterbacks and warriors on the OT who think they know so much more and can do a much better job than Obama. It’s so easy from where we sit.I wohsh there were things he did better but at least I understand that we neither know all the facts that he know, nor, never having been Presidents, do we understand what it takes to run a government. Especially this government of which half seem to care more about getting him out of office than actually working to better the country.
OPEC has lost its ability to set prices. They used to be able to do that, but not now. Of course, they can withhold oil from markets, but why would they do that. That is their paycheck. The prices are set by supply and demand and on a retail basis, taxes. This finger wagging is pure posturing.
“Whenever I hear stern declarations about how politicians are GOING to GET TO THE BOTTOM of why GAS PRICES ARE SO HIGH and then start finger wagging at the financial marketsâ€
But what if he were to start wagging his finger at OPEC? That would be okay, right? The Pres does have a role to play with gas prices because they aren’t set just by the market, right?
And if he didn’t address the screaming and yelling about gas prices, that would be used against him too, dona. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.
