Don't remember which thread it was, but gas prices are up another $0.10 / Gallon over the last two (2) weeks... now at $2.35 / Gallon (Regular)... up $0.60 from the ~$1.75 / Gallon low we enjoyed during around the 4th Holiday (when we'd normally get gouged, BTW)... and up $0.50 from the ~$1.85 / Gallon that sat stagnant for several months in the late summer and fall (up until around the general time of the election).

Ask (cheat rather) and you shall receive... what f'n idiots!

I don't follow oil production and supply; however, as with any industry, you need the following:

• A Market
• Production
• Distribution
• Selling Engine

Make a dent in one of those four, then you will see prices change on most every product.

$4/ liter gas is on the way. That will cerainly create jobs, since so much of the country has a public transportation system or live within walking or bicycling distance from work.

From the man who made plagiarism his platform the first three times he ran....here's more from Sleepy Joe!

Somebody should check the shipping manifesto and see how many containers are bound for Beijing. Let's keep a tally on how many of the MSM outlets and talking heads on cable even mention this.

I'm sure somehow the TDS sufferers will blame "TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP" for this as well.

Elect a clown. Get a circus.

Never underestimate the SOCIALIST PARTY'S ability to **** things up. And it's only Day10.

They already have. I read a Politico article saying that Trump left them in a disarray. It's alway easy to blame the predecessor...

Seems like a bad pick from the articles I was able to find. It requires Senate confirmation so hopefully there are enough people on both sides of the aisle to tank this nom.

Would you be willing to bet a $100 vs a two day old stale doughnut she gets through with every. single. SOCIALIST will voting "yes" on her nomination?

It's about the power. It's not about anything more or anything less.

Owning the GOP has been the battle cry since Reagan was elected.

BBW I applaud your endurance but I have you on ignore so other than the system notifying me that you've responded to me, I can't and won't respond to you. Cheers.

Unlike republicans the democrats stick together.....You could be nominated by Biden for Secretary of War and every single democrat would vote on you

I love the taste of liberal tears.....

That comment in itself solidifies everything I have been saying.

Think like us. Talk like us. Believe like us. One way. Our way. No other opinions are welcome. We must all think alike in order to achieve the ultimate goal.

I think both parties pretty much get in line for what their leader says. I don't remember any of Trump's cabinet nominees being sunk due to Republicans voting against them.

https://nypost.com/2021/02/01/manchin-rips-harris-for-pressuring-senators-to-back-covid-bill/

Sen. Manchin slams Kamala Harris for pressuring senators to back COVID-19 bill
"Speaking to local station WSAZ on Friday, the same outlet where Harris urged West Virginia's lawmakers to back their coronavirus legislation, Manchin argued that the vice president's interview went against President Biden's message of unity.

"I saw [the interview], I couldn't believe it. No one called me. We're going to try to find a bipartisan pathway forward, I think we need to," the self-proclaimed conservative Democrat said.

"We need to work together. That's not a way of working together," he continued. "

Sounds like Manchin wants to be coddled, and if Dems are smart they'll do just that.

WVA Gov basically said the same thing as Harris did, so it's not like she's completely off the mark from what WVA may need.

LOL. Who said anything about comparing them to a year ago?

I'm pointing out that they have gone up $0.60 since the election... I don't know where you live, but at the coast right now Regular is $2.35 / Gallon.

Charlotte was $2.07 when I filled up on Friday

Durham was 2.35 when I filled up today. I'm sure somewhere in town it was cheaper (Costco?), but this is where I usually stop near my office.

I did.
Point being, a year ago under Trump same time frame (less an election) prices were higher.
Depending on where, coast is usually higher anyway.
1 month ago 2.11
1 week ago 2.22
now $2.29.7
Dont know where you get $.60? Was gas $1.70 average in NC?

In North Carolina, the average price is $1.93 which is down 3 cents from a week ago ($1.96) and 6 cents ($1.99) from a month(October) earlier, according to AAA Carolinas.

Historical gasoline prices in North Carolina and the national average going back ten years:
November 30, 2019: $2.39 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.59 per gallon)
November 30, 2018: $2.36 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.46 per gallon)
November 30, 2017: $2.37 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.48 per gallon)
November 30, 2016: $2.09 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.15 per gallon)
November 30, 2015: $2.01 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.03 per gallon)
November 30, 2014: $2.70 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.76 per gallon)
November 30, 2013: $3.31 per gallon (U.S. Average: $3.26 per gallon)
November 30, 2012: $3.32 per gallon (U.S. Average: $3.39 per gallon)
November 30, 2011: $3.29 per gallon (U.S. Average: $3.29 per gallon)
November 30, 2010: $2.78 per gallon (U.S. Average: $2.83 per gallon)

I was paying $1.75 / Gallon down here at the same exact gas station that I always go to for the entire 2nd half of the summer (July, August, September, October)... then it was parked at $1.85 for a couple of weeks... now it's $2.35... post whatever historical ten (10) years of prices you want.

You'd be better off just not commenting when you don't know what you are talking about...

Can you imagine if Trump's press secretary did this:

Does anyone with a working brain not know that when Sleepy Joe was pulling out a list of names that he was supposed to call on he already knew what the questions were and had a note pad with the pre-written answers on it?

This sham of an administration is being exposed by the minute. In two years the SOCIALIST PARTY will have either destroyed America or they will get curb stomped worse than Dear Leader did in 2010.

It doesn't matter though b/c they're on the same team. It might as well be an internal staff meeting to brief the daily issues... they just do it publicly and on camera. This is a farce just like the whole presidency itself, our election system this past go round, the law, the constitution... pretty much everything else is a sham at this point.

Manchin is the only thing between freedom and single party rule. He is going to be forced to pick a side in the next week or so. That will determine the fate of this country.

This practice isn't totally unheard-of in previous administrations, departments, or federal agencies. For instance, former President Donald Trump's White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was known to have asked certain news outlets about their questions in advance of some major or high-profile Trump press conferences or events, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter. Communications staffers during the Bush and Obama years would ask reporters for the gist of questions in advance if they wanted to interview Cabinet secretaries.

Under previous administrations, many White House reporters would meet informally in the morning for gaggles with the press secretaries. During these interactions, White House communications staff could get a sense of the topics reporters were interested in that day, and would come prepared for questions during televised briefings later in the afternoon.
