Networks Hype Rising Gas Prices 4 Times More for Bush, Than They Do for Obama

Networks Hype Rising Gas Prices 4 Times More for Bush, Than They Do for Obama

By Editor-in-Chief on February 28, 2012

Why were gas prices mentioned in 97 stories in one month of 2008 coverage, compared to just 21 in 2012?

Gas Hits $4.29 in Chicago. Maybe it is Time for a Divorce

Gas Hits $4.29 in Chicago. Maybe it is Time for a Divorce

By Editor-in-Chief on September 8, 2011

The City of Chicago has the dubious distinction of  having the highest gasoline prices in the country. Chicago “That Tottling Town” has another dubious distinction: It has been under the control of the Democratic Party longer than most of us have been alive. How else can you explain how a “carpetbagger” like Rahm “Dead Fish” Emanuel could stroll into the City and win the mayor’s office so easily?

Obama’s New Fuel Economy Standards Will Increase Car Costs More Than $11,000

Thanks, Democrats … We’re looking at $5 Gas This Summer

By Editor-in-Chief on June 2, 2011

The forecast for the summer driving season: Hit the road early. Not to beat the traffic, but to beat the higher gas prices expected in mid-July.
