    How long before the 0bama White House releases the information that “it’s all George Bush’s fault?”

    Don’t count on this info deterring Marx Dayton and his fellow tax and spend DFL from pushing through their new increases in the tax on gasoline. Add roughly 18 cents per gallon after they finish their dirty work.

    I’m going to finish the story for the Journal. Gas prices are going up BECAUSE of a rise in crude oil prices and refinary outages. Diesal fuel prices are up due to higher demand of exports. Prices are still lower than that of 2012.—– Daily Journal, don’t be lazy and tell your readers why.
