Transcript from Obama speech at Stivers today:

If Iran decided to shut down the petroleum-rich Strait of Hormuz tomorrow, they believe oil would skyrocket to $300-a-barrel in minutes, a price that one speculator predicted would result in $12-a-gallon gas. $12 a gallon.

  • where's the entire speech? We're supposed to just assume he was saying leaving Iraq means $12 a gallon gas without knowing the context? How can you determine what he was talking about from one sentence? Come on people, don't fall for this fear mongering crap. The average person is smarter than this. Post the whole speech.

  • The whole speech was about 45 minutes. There were other statements made regarding gas prices that were twisted also. I will post pieces of it later. I support Obama but the reason I posted this clip is because it was the most discussed part of the speech on Friday.

  • $12.00 a gallon Barry? On November 8, 2012 we WILL be welcoming our new President. Thanks for the memories Barry.

  • Well, we're looking at four dollars a gallon very soon. A cynic would say the president consciously engineered the jump at the pump, through his weak foreign policy, encouragement of Arabic uprisings, refusal to allow domestic drilling, and his ban on shale exploration. Isn't this what you wanted, Mr. President?

  • @ashxf where did you get Iraq at? He's talking about Iran.

  • Last night, my liberal brother, Who voted for Obama, claimed there was no difference between Republicans and Democrats. Said they were both puppets of big business. I agreed Obama is a Puppet of Big Business. And South America has Gasoline @ .17 to .28 cents a Gallon. Makes a Citizen wonder.

  • In nigtard communities everything's expensive. but in a Sand nigger's nation? come on.

  • Hmm, Iran has the power to topple our economy. Leave them alone.

  • @ashxf No the Average Person is smarter than you. A Progressive nay sayer

    This usurper has told Americans he plans on raising the price of gas slowly that we do not notice. Well he just may be right if there are more like you lurking about the net.

  • Wow.that was in 08 and our fleet is head there now.

  • LOL! do not revote for Obama 12 dollar gallon gas? lol Ron Paul 2012

  • @hookalakah

    hmmmm, that IS what Hussein did and is now working towards isn't it?

    Remember - Obama: “Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket"

    And that's what HE's working on now with HIS nomination of John Bryson to head the Commerce Department

    We've not heard anything for some time but HE didn't forget HIS Crap & Tax scheme

  • LOL it was saying that if some crazy stuff happens in the middle east that it could easily skyrocket. and that we should be moving towards alternative forms of energy. look at the podium it says "A SECURE ENERGY FUTURE" i dont like the guy either but im not gonna be unreasonable when i disagree. i hated the dumb bush bashers that would do that, and i refuse to be bush bashers 2.0

  • there is 1 action we can take to make gas prices go down overnight. we need to exempt gas stations from anti-trust laws. The biggest gas station chains in america lose a shit ton of money every year from their gas sales, and make all of their money from the stuff inside on the shelves. they could sell gas for 1 doller, and balance that loss with purchases inside. we would get cheaper gas, cheaper gas means cheaper everyday shit.....exclude gas stations from anti-trust laws thats the winner
