Barack Obama 2008 ad on Gas Prices. “We’ll ‘invest’ in alternative energy, create jobs and free ourselves from foreign oil.” One outta three is great in baseball (he “invested” lots in his cronies’ alternative energy ratholes) but now that we are looking back nostalgically at the $3.50 gas price he sneered at, we can see Barry’s game plan has been nothing but strikeouts.

See? I TOLD you we were all buddy buddy with the Russians now! Because they would never use those islands as bases to attack the US, nor would they stockpile any oil obtained in that area for their personal use, or have POS equipment that will break and cause a spill. Absolutely not.
Obama To Give Russia , Seven , Oil Rich , U.S. Alaskan Islands . Talks Have Been In Secret , Behind Closed Door Meetings . Possibly To Sway Russia on Their Iranian Stance

"Dear Leader" got caught fibbing again, what a surprise.....Not! The Kenyan Klown accepts no responsibility for anything, but then what do you expect from a racist thief.
liar! NODUMBA 2012
This is so hypocritical that the gas Obama's giving me alone should serve to replace our nation's need for imported oil.
At a minimum, his intellectual flatulence should provide the nation with a thousand year supply of methane.
Whoops. You are right Dean. It was 2008. But it still will make an excellent reference when the Reps make their own spot.
Absolutely. It isn't like he isn't always still lying, just like back then! He wouldn't dare try a straight refutation of the things he said in this advert. He'd just try to spin them faster.
Every word Obama spoke in that ad was a lie, including "and" and "the". But the lies seem even more noxious after the passage of four years.
Still, that won't him from trotting out the same lies in 2012. As the price of gasoline rises in the coming months Obama will, 1) blame the Republicans, 2) demand a windfall profits tax on oil companies, 3) demand the funding of alternative energy sources, 4) blame BP, 5) blame the tensions in the Mid-East, 6) blame rich people who drive big gas guzzlers, and 7) blame George Bush. Listening to Obama you'd think someone else has been President the past four years.
If you look closely you can always tell when Obamarama is lying. His lips will be moving.
And that's a fact, barack
Alternative energy? Yeah, like Solyndra? Run the **ckin pipeline from Canada to Texas. That's being shovel ready you communist *ickweed. Anyone besides the liberal/progressive marxist knows this is a bunch of garbage and ALL The pathological liar has spewed another paragragh.
I'm sorry but whoever told him to make this commercial must work for the RNC. No you don't take money form Big Oil....oh wait. You did? You lied? Seems Politico contradicts his assertion. http://www.opensecrets.org/industries/indus.php?ind=e01
But we'll take this a step further. He will play both sides of the street. Sure he is all gung-ho about increased drilling but then between the EPA, BLM and the Interior Dept they fall all over each other with new regulations and endless bureaucratic red tape.
Windfall profits? Oh for the love of God. Only TWO of the top ten profitable companies in America are Big Oil. What about Big Coca-Cola or those greedy bastards at AT&T?
And this is the part that makes me laugh the most. "Alternative Energy?" 5 Million new jobs? I don't have the numbers in front of me but I'm pretty sure Obama has already pissed away more than $1 Billion on one failed alternative energy company after another. And with that how many thousands were added to the unemployment rolls? Can you say Solyndra?
This commercial can be ripped to shreds without even thinking and I would bet the Dems pull it pretty quick.
It is from 2008.
When he said he accepted no money from big oil companies he must have thought BP was Boise Potato company or something?
