Nice one, Palin

That $4.28 record under Bush doesn't count? Not that it was his fault, anymore than this is Obama's fault. But, you can't fix stupid.

I'm pretty sure I'm on record as saying that the president isn't the sole determining factor in oil prices although I just pointed out in that poll, he's absolutley held accountable by a majority of Americans as though he were....O is on record as desiring higher gas prices and energy prices in general, has pursued policies which push prices higher and has an Energy Secretary that publically yearned for 8-9 dollar gasoline...it's part of the agenda, if he'd pushed a little harder on some items we'd really be screwed right now... I don't think they care how they get there as long as they get there...his policies in their totality will force prices higher whether it's now or later...slow or fast....another president with a different agenda...not so much... which is why prices returned to reasonable levels under Bush....Obama inherited cheap gas too he has no intention of allowing it to return to reasonable levels...it's not in the agenda


the nastiness is spreading...."pent up anger"?

Financial Times...pretty funny

"In exchange for 48 hours of priceless photo opportunities, Mr Cameron offered to support the US if it released oil reserves to lower fuel prices, even if Britain thinks the move would be a largely futile short-term gesture."

Yeah, that whole increased US production and stuff during his term points directly to his conspiracy against low gas prices. I think it is great that almost the entire year, the year before he was elected, gas was $3.50 to $4.28. Prices collapsed at the end of the year, when oil fell to $40 a barrel, (no doing of our own) and a price which was unsustainable. Now the prices are almost as high as where they were 4 years ago under a different president, and according to the Republican nominee, it is Obama's fault... American's who can't effectively analyze multi-variate problems, but rather go with their own "common sense" fall right behind the piper.

By the way... keystone, like Bryan said, would do nothing for gas prices. More scamming by the leaders on the right to sway the minions.

Remember that 8year old comment you made before?

It CAN be one word, but it is standard practice and completely acceptable to hyphenate it.

for example:
Scalable Multi-variate Analytics of Seismic and Satellite-based ...vis.pku.edu.cn/research/publication/Vis10_earth-small.pdfYou +1'd this publicly.

or

MATLAB By Examples: Multi-variate Model Fitting using Taylor Series Method

someone should notify the dictonary

Word not found in the Dictionary and Encyclopedia. Did you mean:
multivariate ?

and WIKIPEDIA

"Multi-variate" does not exist"

I didn't check the Urban Dictinary...check that...I did just for kicks..."multi-variate isn't defined yet"


.were you really talking about "Analytics of Seismic and Satellite-based stuff"? I noticed it's the first thing you could locate on Google .....
