Democrats cause record high gas prices

Why would I possibly pick such a headline?  Well, after reading this from Gateway Pundit, I figured it was only fair:

“All you have to do is drive down the street in your car, see the price at the pump, and you know that Americans can no longer afford George W. Bush as President and his Rubber Stamp Republican Congress.”
Nancy Pelosi
April 26, 2006

The Pelosi-Reid Congress is shooting for a record high in gas prices to go with their record low in approval ratings.

Oil prices surged again on Wednesday to a new record, near $95 a barrel. The government also reported another unexpected drop in crude oil inventories.

Are you feeling the pinch yet from the Pelosi-Reid Congress?

Since Bush no longer has a “rubber stamp Republican Congress”, and since said Republican Congress was faulted for the high gas prices of a year ago, and since gas prices are higher now than they were last year, then one can only conclude (using Democrat “logic”, and I use that word loosely) that the current non-”rubber stamp” Democrat Congress is to blame for the current gas price spike.

Then again, since when has consistency and logic been friends of the left?
