Obama grasped the thorn of high gas prices during a speech in the White House Rose Garden today. You gotta hand it to the guy, he's consistent: Blame someone else for a problem -- in this case "speculators" -- then point lots of taxpayer money at the problem -- in this case $52 million for additional market oversight. Even then, said the Great One, he can't solve the problem overnight. Clearly, when it comes to real solutions, he's running on fumes.
