A Cry in the Darkness

As we slide further into the Conservative Abyss, a few of us who remember the New Deal and what having a real Middle Class have something to say to add fuel to the teabag fire.

Gas Price Rising...How Convenient

The strategy was telegraphed, like a punch, for months. Cons began with the Keystone Pipeline issue, knowing full well that there was no way President Obama could immediately approve the pipeline (mandated studies have not even been completed), cons pushed a decision before Christmas. They knew he would say no. They were betting our country on it.

And, of course, several con sources have been repeating the chant about how much higher gas prices are under Obama than under Bush. Ever wonder why they have been doing that?

This is not true, of course, but the chant has gone on, while we were able to purchase gas in the low $3.00 range, just as we did from 2000 to 2006 or so.

And why, some wondered, were the cons repeating high gas price warnings as the economy floundered?

The answer is apparent now.

The oil cartels have suddenly raised gas prices by at least .$50/gallon and more. And, projections are being released by "objective" petroleum predictions (there is no such animal) that gas prices will be close to $5.00/gallon by labor day.

How convenient for big oil. How convenient for the Republican Party, whose "drill baby drill" mantra is party gospel. How convenient to try to kill our economic recovery.

How inconvenient for President Obama who will pay for the accelerating recovery with higher gas prices and possible electoral defeat.

This is being done on purpose folks. It is a plan right out of Karl Rove's playbook. They have been working on this for the past three years.

Have you read the excuses for the gas price increase? They are almost comical, but not quite. They range from refineries being shut down for maintenance, to the Iranian "crisis" (what?).

They are lying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The truth is big oil has a vested interest in electing a Republican President, who will do their bidding, in 2012. It fits their plans to literally take over the country in the next four years. The Koch Brothers, oilmen, want to return to the days when an oilman (George W.) was in the White House. They raped the country then, and want to rape it now.

So, if you believe in the "tooth fairy" then accept these lies.

You will be paying even higher gas prices, because ultimately Big Oil wants demand to be as high as possible, justifying six, seven and eight dollar a gallon gas (before taxes) after the election. That is right, AFTER the election, the prices will not come down. They will have us where they want us...and the game will be up!

This will produce a windfall of epic proportions, and they can finish the task of literally buying the entire country, and half the world for that matter. If the President is defeated, there will be nobody in their way.

The only way to stop this power grab is to conserve, and don't let your vote be bought! When the price of gas goes up, use less. Carpool, get on the bus, demand better public transportation; etc.

Big oil is betting you don't do this. They are betting you will do as you have in the past, panic, blame the President; and GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT!

Throwing President Obama out of office because of high gas prices will buy guess what....even higher gas prices, with no recourse.

Will Mitt Romney stand up to Big Oil? Will Santorum? Not a chance! Big oil owns the Republican Party!!!!!

It is demand plain and simple! You are once again being suckered! You are being worked! They are betting that you bite, that the economy, as it improves, lures you back into your wasteful energy ways, puts you back in your big truck and SUV, and through skyrocketing demand, leaves them in absolute charge of our lives.

It is a huge turning point in this country. If we choose wrong, like in Indiana Jones, not "wisely" then we die. Ultimately that is what is at stake, our freedom from a cartel run country, who controls everything; and ends up with the end of our way of life and the loss of our freedom.

It is called fascism. To resist is to be free, to be taken in by them is to lose our freedom.

Gas Prices rising....how convenient......
