OK, so you got laid off due to Obamanomics so you figure you'll get in
some fishing, take the boat out and enjoy some of that time off. *You
go to fill her up and WTF, gas is $5.00/gallon, another causualty of
Obamanomics. *While filling up you notice that your gas now has 15%
ethanol made from corn under Obamanomics, crap, no wonder breakfast
cereal is nearly $5.00/box. *When you calculate your vehicles mpg, you
notice it has dropped, time for a tuneup? *No, another casualty of
Obamanomics, ethanol reduces fuel efficiency.
So, how's that Hope and Change going?


We just had another big race team drop out completely. The father said
"well, my kids want to play football instead, and it's a hell of a lot
cheaper than motocross". Nobody is racing "full seasons" this year
knowing well that by the end of the season Obamanomics might put gas at
6 bucks a gallon and there is no way they will be able to finish the
season and be a contender. On the other hand, very wealthy teams
(parents) will be able to buy a quick championship by simply getting to
all the races. We are splitting hauler fees with another local team and
went to the practice track yesterday in one tightly packed truck... We
are pretty sure our sport is screwed if this ethenol scheme along with
the green hoax, is going to destroy a lot of our sport...


Ethanol? Green hoax? What sort of Faux News craziness has infected your
pea-brain, Mr. Daughter-Raper? Your rising fuel costs are being "fueled"
by speculators, not by ethanol.

Crikey...your kids should be removed from your household before they
grow up believing the sort of crap you believe.


Obama blames his total failure on "speculators".
