The Mind-Numbing Hypocrisy of the Stupidest Man on the Internet

Thanks Obama

For years, the Dumbest Man on the Internet, Jim Hoft, has been barking at the moon that President Obama is solely responsible for high gasoline prices. Just a few examples out of dozens (possibly hundreds — I don’t have time to count them all):

Gas Prices More Than Double Under Obama… State-Run Media Couldn’t Care Less
Obama’s War on the Middle Class: Gas Prices Double - Incomes Drop - Jobs Killed
Confirmed: Obama’s Policies Have Contributed to Record High Gas Prices
Obama Hits the Gas - Prices Double in Just Three Years Due to His Failed & Insane Policies
Thanks to Democrats… Gas Prices Could Top $5 a Gallon This Year
Grim Milestone… Gas Prices Soar Under Obama - Worse Than Carter
Soaring Gas Prices Cause Obama’s Approval Rating to Plummet

And of course, the inevitable “Thanks Obama” post:

Thanks Barack… Gas Prices Hit Record High in 2011 Under Obama

Not that it’s hypocritical or anything — OK, it’s insanely hypocritical — but now that gas prices are at their lowest in years, we find the DMOTI singing a very different tune:

Unreal. Obama Takes Credit for Lower Gas Prices: “You’re Welcome” (VIDEO) | the Gateway Pundit

Only a few months after banning oil drilling in Bristol Bay in Alaska, and a few days from pushing to ban oil drilling in an Alaskan wild life refuge, President Obama has decided that cheap gas prices are somehow because of him.

On Friday, President Obama told a crowd at the Ivy Tech Community College in Indianapolis that people were saving a lot of money at that gas pump so “You’re Welcome” (video below):

“A lot of families have been saving a lot of money at the gas pump which is putting smiles on folks faces. And (Crowd laughs) No, You’re Welcome.”

The absolute gall of the President for taking credit for something he honestly doesn’t support, and is not responsible for, is mind numbing.

Question for Jim Hoft (not that he’ll answer it): don’t you realize we can still see what you wrote about gas prices in the past?

(Note: after having a public falling out with Chuck C. Johnson over his vicious attack on a Tea Party heroine, Hoft is using one of Johnson’s YouTube videos in this post without credit. Wingnuts do the darndest things!)
