- Blaming Energy Speculators ... Again...



What thin gruel Obama is. He's giving yet another speech blaming speculators for high gas prices. It's such an old story (and utterly baseless accusation) I don't have the strength to respond to it.

If there is someone out there doing something illegal Mr. President then charge them. Don't just stand there giving us the same baseless innuendo without any evidence. Name names you shallow demonizing A-hole, bring charges. Otherwise, go get a new damned villain.

I'm too tired of writing the same essay over, and over, and over, and over again so here is what I wrote before:


Blame The Speculators - 5/8/2008


Don't Blame The Speculators Part: 91,887,545 - 3/6/2012


Blaming speculators ... Again - 3/16/2012


Let The Witch hunt Begin - 1/31/2011


It's Not Illegal, But That won't Stop Bernie - 8/19/2011


Obama Blames Speculators - 4/22/2011


Someone Stole My Prosperity - 3/9/2010


Inmates And The Asylum - Part 2 - 7/6/2008


There are about a dozen others which mention the speculator issue but aren't specifically about it. You can see why I'm so tired of talking about this.

And of course, Obama didn't take any questions from the press. How could he dare? Even the press corps knows that this isn't the fault of speculators. (The same speculators that have driven the cost of natural gas to all time historic lows.)

I'm so sick of this guy.

bout as good an explanation on cnbc from a guy with ? swift energy. 1st -odumass doesnt understand the markets and is deflecting crap. of course.ITS NOT MY FAULT..2nd the so-caled speculators are investors but cant manipulate the price of oil.investors can add to the velocity of movements but oil will settle where supply demand eventually says for it to go...and of course if "specs" were pushing price down odummy would want more of em.his final staement i really liked----INDUSTRY(not government)will reallocate capital as deemed necessary. so --as im hoping--- eventually the private sector(not the idiot libs) will create so many new uses for nat gas that the price and stocks will eventually climb..THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO KEEPS IT ASS OUTA THE PRIVATE SECTOR.oh .and repeat after me "ITS NOT MY FAULT"
