today, 3.81. we reported in california it was well over 4, maybe 4 1/2 bucks. >> steve: one stakes, 6 bucks. >> gretchen: so why are we not hearing about this? obviously this affects americans every single day. >> you know, when george bush was president, we heard about gas prices every time and they would take cameras to the pumps and have someone tearfully explaining they were paying almost 2.50 a gallon. it's amazing how quiet the media has been when gas prices are double what they were when president obama took office. the highest in the country's history. and in california, there are some places where gas is 6 bucks a gallon. the reason? because in california, the regulations and the taxes make it even more expensive and they can't bring gas across the borders because of the high standards that california has for gasoline. so when that hits people, it hits them hard. it takes that single mom trying to get to work, dropping her kids off at daycare, that's a gut punch to americans that i think they'll remember on
