Video: Marathon Pundit on the streets about high gasoline prices

I'm beginning a new Marathon Pundit series--Marathon Pundit on the Streets. Today I confront the issue of high gasoline prices in front of--where else?--a Marathon gas station in Illinois.

As I declare in the video--gas prices are double what they were when President Obama was sworn into office. He's doing nothing to combat this problem. He has blocked most new offshore drilling, he's dragging his feet in regards to issuing drilling permits on federally owned land, and worst of all, he is preventing the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. The shovel-ready project will bring 800,000 barrels of oil per day--not gallons as I say in the video--to our nation from friendly Canada.

Thanks to Little Marathon Pundit for taking the video--it was done in one take.

Think about the price of gasoline when Election Day comes in November. Last year the average family spent $4,155 on gasoline. How much with they pay this year?
