Remember when the Bush/Cheney team was constantly accused of pushing up gasoline prices from the beginning of their administration?   After all, they had all those oil contacts, oil investments, oil buddies, etc. etc.  Democratic members of Congress wrote reports and publicly complained about it.   The liberal media was convinced of conspiracy with the Cheney Task Force and demanded to know who was involved in those secret White House meetings.

Does anyone remember how long after Bush’s first inauguration day until gas prices had risen 21%?

Click here for the data source.

What was the average price during that period (from inauguration until it was 21% higher) and compare that to the inauguration day?  Was the average lower, higher or about the same as inauguration day?

Now do the same for the Obama administration since their inauguration day.
