Gas is Over $4 per Gallon But Biden Says Energy Policy is the ‘Best’

Yesterday I paid $4.10 per gallon of regular unleaded, but hey, that’s okay. Just ask Vice President Joe Biden. He says the administration’s energy policy is the “best its ever been[1].” Seriously, he did.

REPORTER:: Gas prices are above $4 a gallon. You were asked this question and you gave an answer, but there’s a new commercial out that says, “Since Obama has become president, prices have nearly doubled.” Four years in, should you all have a better energy policy in America?

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN:: I think our energy policy’s the best it’s ever been. We’re importing less foreign oil than we have any time in 16 years; we are pumping more gas and oil than any time in the last eight years; we’re in a situation where there’s more rigs going in America than all the rest of the world combined; we have doubled the mileage of automobiles.

What the heck is he even talking about? Has your gas mileage doubled? Forcing us into itty-bitty unsafe cars doesn’t count.

Drilling on federal land: is down since Obama took over, and this is the same administration that was: held in contempt of court: over their drilling moratorium. Sheesh.

Addendum: Oh dear, yesterday Biden was asked about rising gas prices and took a full 11 minutes to: not: answer the question. Check out the video at: Texas GOP Vote[4]: and be sure to scroll down the page for highlights of this great energy plan of theirs.
