"Obama’s energy policies are doubling the price of energy and destroying jobs and the middle-class"

Are you middle class? Have your energy costs doubles since Obama took over? I am middle class. My bills have not doubled. I lack the energy right now to dig out bills from four years ago but, I swear to you, cross my heart, I think they have actually (gasp!) gone down!*

Maybe it's because I took advantage of those sweet Obama tax break policies. I added insulation and replaced a drafty old window and door. Recently I took some of the money I'd saved and bought new energy efficient appliances too. Let the dollars roll in!

And hey, now that I think about it, somebody manufactured that insulation, that door, that window, somebody sold it to me, delivered it to me, and a few somebodies installed them. Same with the new kitchen appliances and dryer. Could that be? Why, yes, I believe it is. JOBS!!!!!!!

*Since we don't want to depend on my raggedy memory, I figured I'd better find a source. That turned out to be almost as difficult as digging around in the garage for receipts but I did find this table:
