The man who made clear that he wanted gas prices to be higher has made good on his promises.
Gas prices have doubled under Barack Obama. The pain visited by the higher prices will not be felt only at the pump. It will felt in many areas.
The price of oil reached a 30 month high of $108 per barrel on April 1.

Events in the world are spinning Barack Obama around like a top. Barack Obama is ill-suited to be the President of the United States. His worldly sense is really only that of a Chicago mayor, but what Obama really should have been was the Secretary General of the UN.
