Gas Prices Heading Up Again
Cincinnatus:
Story is out of Chicago and does not indicate if the rise in prices will stay limited to that area. Probably not. The Obama economic miracle rolls on.
Hold on to your wallets: we are in the middle of a gas price spike, and experts say it will only get worse.
CBS 2′s Courtney Gousman learned several factors might push the price in our area to more than $4 a gallon...
You might have noticed gas is on the rise. Gas Buddy.com senior petroleum analyst Patrick DeHaan said it’s up 20 cents per gallon over the last week. He predicted the climb will continue.

They wanted this guy and they got him.

Thought for a minute it was natural gas prices which need to go up. With all the drilling in the Eagle Ford, they are starting to flare gas again. Haven't seen that since the 60s.

Gasoline has gone up about 20 cents per gallon in the last couple of weeks. Back to Obamanormal.

Liberal ideologues cheer this. Liberal foot soldiers, not so much.
Obama and Steven Chu told anyone who was listening where they want gasoline prices to be. The media didn't tell the stupid American public, so the public will be surprised.
No matter, without the media stories of families crushed by gas prices, farmers who can't grow food, and people who can't get to work, the American public is far too stupid to believe there is a problem.

Consumers Taking Financial Hit From Rising Fuel Prices
Consumers have been spending more on gasoline than they have in nearly three decades.
With pump prices at their highest level on record for this time of year, the stage is set for an even greater climb in gasoline prices and expenditures than in 2012. Retail gasoline prices have surged 17 cents in a week to top $3.50 a gallon on average, posting the highest prices on record for the beginning of February.
According to AAA, the national average price of regular gasoline is $3.52 a gallon, 4 cents higher than the average price a year ago. The average price was $3.35 a gallon a week ago and $3.30 a gallon a month ago.
