Gingrich Lied Through Misrepresentation about Gas Prices

Technorati Profile http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping

Newt claimed gasoline prices “doubled” under Obama. This is only true if you take the last month of December in 2008, which was the lowest ever under Bush, 1.61, and compare it with today. June 2008 gas was at $4 and then some. If you take the last 36 months of Bush and compare it to all 36 months of Obama, you get $2.74 and $2.89 respectively.

Lying through misrepresentation seems to be a fine art for Gingrich.
