Hormuz: Obama's Latest Fail.



Do any of you remember those '3 am' commercials/ads from the last election cycle?

Good lawrd, I wish I had anyone but Obama at the helm right now. If only Biden or Shrillary could take charge during Obama's latest vay-cay. It would be better than the NOTHING we have going on right now! 

How are gas prices around your parts? Did they shoot up 35 cents or more overnight like they did here in Ohio due to Obama's mishandling of the latest Iranian show of defiance?

Amen to that!

As of yesterday, gas prices here have crept up the past few days, but not by as much as 35 cents. However, I haven't been out and about to see today's prices.

Our economy can't take another hit. But Obama is going to deliver one -- or more.

God help us.

I heat with oil. I wonder if I'll be able to pay my next bill???

Brooke said...

AOW, I too use fuel oil for heat. We have about half a tank which should last us the rest of the winter; we usually use half the tank each year.

I can't even imagine what our next oil bill will look like.

But not to worry. I'm sure Obama can reach into his stash' and take care of us.

Cowards and White Houses don't mix!

Relax guys. The president is on vacation right now, recharging his batteries so he can deal with this situation promptly and effectively when he gets back.

Did I just say that? Bwahahahahahah! I crack myself up!

Mr. AOW said...

Happy new year, Brooke!

Chuck said...

Remember the jokes about when Reagan slept? The left still yucks it up about that.

Brooke said...

Odie: Amen, brotha'.

Gator: Oh, my sides! You're killing me!

Mr. AOW: A very Happy New Year to you, too!

Chuck: I was a bit to small to follow politics when Reagan was in office, so I don't remember those...

But I do, of course, recall how the left would excoriate Bush for every little move, both Sr. and Jr., while Clinton and now even more so, Obama gets a free pass.

It is like the fail an hour marathon since he took over, and I mean took over.

Chuck said...

Brooke, I only remember Reagan from the history books of course, cough, cough

Alligator said...

Geez you guys make me feel old. I can barely remember Eisenhower, Kennedy I remember fairly well, LBJ I knew real well because I approached the age of going to Nam. From Nixon on I started following politics and paying close attention to what these people said and what they actually did. I've also morphed from being moderately "liberal" to a staunch conservative during the Carter - Reagan years. Brother Jimmy turned me off from the Democrats liberal agenda and Reagan gave me something solid to turn to.

Of all my remembrances, I thought of Carter as being the worst president, although I don't think Johnson did the nation any favors. I think Obama has finally exceeded Jimmy's record of disasters. He almost makes Bill Clinton look like a right-winger in comparison. The fail marathon continues.

$3.12 here. I think you're hallucinating.

Let's see, I need propane for hear. It's up to $2.49 a gallon. It will cost me $249 to fill my propane which should last me through the end of the winter.

The obama vacation is costing us $4,000,000. For the cost of their Hawaii trip, the government could provided 16,064 propane heat based homes with heat for the winter.

Now I'm not saying it's the government's job to do this. I'm just trying to get a perspective on how their vacation is costing us.

Wait, it's not costing us a dime. We're borrowing the money. China's paying for it. I s'pose it's alright then.

Alligator said...

I filled up tonight at $2.92. Last week it was $2.95. What's with Ohio? Propane here was $520.00 for the fill up but should be good until March.

Brooke said...

Ducky: Yeah, I'm hallucinating all right. I wish I were when it comes to filling up. A half a tank cost me $24 bucks yesterday.

Here in Ohio, gas went from about $3.19 to $3.45 as soon as this Hormuz nonsense started. It's now leveled off to $3.39.

As for the fuel oil, I have a large tank, 250 gallons, I believe. Residential oil is going from between $3.15 to $3.60. Do the math.

We use about half a tank a year, as I stated previously, and that is with my thermostat never toping 65/66 degrees, and turned down at night.

But hey, President Obama did say that we Americans can't just leave our thermostats on at 72 degrees year round! Instead, we should just fly to Hawaii whenever it gets chilly!

He's almost as condescending as you are!

Krystal: Long time no see! :)

Obama's hypocrisy is astounding, isn't it? But he cares about the little guy!

Gator: I wish I knew. Ugh.

Krystal said...

I'm not sure ... has anyone checked ... where are obama's balls ... 'tis a mystery ...

benning said...

Krystal: Check Mooochelle's nightstand.

Benning: Also, long time, no see! :)

Brooke said...

I will update my list! Thanks, Jeff!

Also, I've added Benning and Krystal back to the 'roll. :)

benning said...

Whee! Thanks! :)

Ducky's here said...

Maybe he can get it up over $4.00 like Chucklenuts did.

Still $3.12 down on the Parkway.

Brooke said...

Ducky, the newsies on the hourly radio break were just talking about gas going up over four dollars this spring/summer.

Gas here just shot up to $3.47. Luckily, I put some in the tank right before that happened.
