Yup, no matter what is going one, those who are in charge catch the slap in the face. Goes with becoming a millionaire for the Pres.
That makes me sick to my stomach, Who will turn things around here?
I think the inaction(s), or unhelpful action(s), are doing exactly what he wants.
I also noticed that his many vacations and breaks are helping the nation, at the same time he trashes the BP guy for taking a day off! What's that Sol O. said? Oh yeah, you control the words, you control the population. Two legs good, four legs bad.
The Obama agenda is the overriding consideration - nothing else. His administration will do more long term dame to USA than the oil!
Bryan,
True, but when you start with no experience and surround yourself with folks with even less, that's what you get. :)
Steve
Vick,
We have to elect a Congress on November 2 that will reinstitute the Constitution. :)
Steve
Jay,
I have no doubt he is manipulating this to his advantage. He's already stopped the drilling. :)
Steve
Gary,
The damage is immeasurable. :)
Steve
Never let a good crisis go to waste... If the crisis isn't big enough, it is hard to leverage it to get the most affect...
Lane,
Nothing like a big crisis. :)
Steve
What is lost in all this is the true size of the problem or at least the potential problem. Not unlike the banking crisis, we now have a government that is powerless to fix what a corporation has created. And Obama is ignoring the obvious, we are going to have more too big to fail situations like this.
Dale,
Not so fast. There is growing evidence to suggest that MMS caused the problem and that BP only was going along. :)
Steve
Dale, the problem could have been minimized at several junctures... but the government actually made it worse.
There are many more things, but the bottom line is that the President failed to allow the steps to be taken that could have stopped the oil from reaching shore. He continues to allow government agencies to allow damage by not fast tracking things like dredging and fire extinguisher inspections (that could have been done on the water rather than forcing the barges back to port).
Lane,
On point all the way down the line. Thank you. :)
Steve
Hey the skimmers just got there and it only took 80 days, what a joke!
National Security,
Thanks. Just shows what a lack of leadership can do. :)
