FOX FLIP FLOPS: "Why Cheap Gas Isn't Good"


AFTER WEEKS of blaming Obama for rising gas prices, Fox News is asking if the decrease in gas prices may be a bad thing, links the decrease to a weak economy and, again, blames Obama. – Fox News: Rising gas prices were bad. Now falling prices are bad. Both are Obama’s fault

An interesting price drop from mid 2008 to election day.

When GW Bush got the nomination in 2000, oil was at $10 per barrel. By Inauguration Day 2001 it was $30 per barrel. By Sept 2001 the price had dropped to $20 per barrel, because to the amazement of the rest of the World, Bush had not invaded anybody yet. Then along came the 9/11 Attack.

Of course, Fox would have left that part out.

if Obama walked on water, Fox would trumpet the headline that "Obama can't swim". Assholes.
