A QUICK CHRONOLOGY OF GAS-RELATED QUOTES

Here\’s the quick chronology:

-2007: “Drill, baby, drill”: Sarah Palin.

-2012:  “And you can bet that since it\’s an election year, they\’re already dusting off their three-point plans for $2 gas.  I\’ll save you the suspense: Step one is drill, step two is drill, and step three is keep drilling. We heard the same thing in 2007, when I was running for president. We hear the same thing every year. We\’ve heard the same thing for 30 years.

“Well, the American people aren\’t stupid.  You know that\’s not a plan – especially since we\’re already drilling. … You know there are no quick fixes to this problem, and you know we can\’t just drill our way to lower gas prices.”:  President Obama
-2015: “We just filled up at the local Costco station.  $1.99 a gallon, cash or credit.  And West Texas Intermediate (WTI) closed yesterday at $52.69 a barrel – down from about $108 a barrel in June.

“It\’s a fracking miracle.”:  Me.
