Obama Wants $7-$9 Gas Prices and His Secretary of Energy Steven Chu Admitted it

The Mainstream media does not want you to know the truth about Barack Obama, their protected candidate up for re-election in 2012. If the true motives hidden behind Barack Obama’s policies and actions were exposed, America would be in a civil war. Obama’s Energy Secretary Steven Chu even openly suggested that higher gasoline prices would solve America’s energy problems forcing people to buy over-priced, inefficient alternative energy cars.

“The Energy Department is not working to lower gasoline prices directly, Secretary Steven Chu said Tuesday after a Republican lawmaker scolded him for his now-infamous 2008 comment that gas prices in the U.S. should be as high as in Europe.

Obama wants to turn America into Europe. When gas prices hit $3 a gallon many people began immediately cutting back on their spending.  Now that gas prices are $4.00 a gallon, and fast approaching $6.00 a gallon, Americans are feeling pinched like never before. Obama’s strategy is going to bankrupt America from every imaginable angle from Obama care to his failed energy policies and bankrupt, non-working green energy initiatives.

Chu admitted to the House appropriators during a hearing on DOE’s budget that the Department of Energy would prefer to work to promote alternative enery such as biofuels and electric vehicles. But experts know we are far from making these alternatives cost effective

“But Americans need relief now”, Rep. Alan Nunnelee (R-Miss.) said — “not high gasoline prices that could eventually push them to alternatives.”

“I can’t look at motivations. I have to look at results. And under this administration the price of gasoline has doubled,” Nunnelee told Chu.

“The people of north Mississippi can’t be here, so I have to be here and be their voice for them,” Nunnelee added. “I have to tell you that $8 a gallon gasoline makes them afraid. It’s a cruel tax on the people of north Mississippi as they try to go back and forth to work. It’s a cloud hanging over economic development and job creation.”

Obama will not grant drilling in the Gulf.  Some conspiracy theorists claim that Democrat operatives under Obama’s direction orchestrated the destruction of the BP oil drilling platform in 2010 in order to catapult Obama’s energy mandates, oils banning, green energy initiatives which have all proven catastrophic to the welfare of the United States.

Obama and the Democrats are hell bent on punishing American success with a forced move towards cars are NOT reliable nor efficient.   The truth about electric cars is that in the long run, they will actually cost Americans MORE money!  They dont run in the cold weather, they go only short distances, they take 24 hours to fully charge, are dangerous, and above all are 2-3 times the cost of a gasoline engine car. None of it makes sense. Yet Americans are falling for the Obama energy destruction plan. Many accuse Obama of not standing up to Iran to further strain America’s reliance on oil.
