Do not get how this is hypocritical.... Unless they think the US is addicted to Middle East Oil, which is a fallacy. The US gets 80% of its imported oil from Canada and Mexico most of the rest comes from "Europe", or drilled by European companies off of the various American territories. (As in North and South America). The US only get less then 1% of oil from the middle east.

Yet, in the past two months gas has gone up 75 cents in my area. Now over 4 dollars. 

That's Interesting, prices over here were surprisingly stable and low during the last months.

Even though "low" is relative, considering that over here, "low" means 233% of the 4 dollars that you pay...
