Ryan: Blame Obama For High Gas

That's right, kids. Because we all know in an election year with a tight race, the incumbent will just be giddy about people getting gouged at the pump.

SAN RAMON, Calif. - Paul Ryan said today the president has gone to "great lengths" to make gas more expensive in this country.

The vice presidential candidate visited Google headquarters in Montainview to hold a Google+ Hangout where he took questions from supporters at campaign offices all over the country, including a question from a senior citizen in Florida named Ruth. She asked him how he was going to "improve the situation" of sky high gas prices.

"This is not just something that squeezes family budgets, it squeezes businesses," Ryan answered. "It also gives us a bad foreign policy in that we are so dependent on other countries for our oil imports, it's the biggest part of our trade deficit and so what's frustrating about the Obama administration's policies are they've gone to great lengths to make oil and gas more expensive."

...

 The House Budget Chairman told the questioner not to "forget" that President Obama "tried to grant, jam through congress, a national energy tax designed to make energy more expensive."

"Don't forget the fact that he has tried lots of things to try and prevent drilling for natural gas and oil on public lands," Ryan said. "Lets not forget the fact that the regulations coming out of the EPA are making it harder for us to harness home grown American energy."

Ya, never mind that domestic oil drilling is at an ALL TIME HIGH. Can't let the facts get in the way of a good story, can you, Pauly?

OIL PRICES DO NOT WORK THAT WAY!  GOOD NIGHT! </Morbo>

But seriously, the fact that a presidential administration doesn't have that much control over oil prices won't keep politicians from telling the same shopworn lies over and over again.

Folks, this is the same guy who used optional grant money via the Affordable Care Act for health clinics that have family planning as a service while running with a tea party agenda. Ryan has been giving Romney a run for his money in the lying department.
Despite knowing about indoctrination I thought it was a good idea to put a human Reaper near my office. Now I am a sentient husk :(.

Jesus fuck the lies.  I was wondering when this one would pop up.  Didn't this show up when Bush was in office and people of Ryan's ilk were saying that we can't blame the president for the high gas prices?

Ironbite-glad to see Ryan be as hypocritical as possible.

Obama is trying to make your life worse. Is he some sort of Kenyan/Marxist/Nazi?

And people believe this.

The party's name is the Democratic Party. It has been since 1830. Please spell correctly.

Ryan: "Obama also responsible for tendency of gases to expand".
