> and imply that the economy is doing really well right now is actually scary.

We're not seeing a decline in employment or spending. The really bad symptoms of a bad economy aren't there yet.

> Gas if still $4.2 national average per gallon. That's HUGE, and the direct actions of the administration are to blame for this.

Which direct actions? And frankly, gasoline prices do not amount to a signficant amount of spending by American families. Food and housing costs are also up and wages down (adjusted for inflation) which account for a lot more money that people actually spend than energy. However gasoline prices are also way down from a month ago, yet food/rent are still up.
