W.H. summons BP brass to face Obama (Palin shames Obama into meeting with BP CEO)
POLITICO ^ | 6/10/10 8:55 PM EDT | JOSH GERSTEIN

Obama was also asked why he’d not had a conversation with Hayward.

“I have not spoken to him directly, and here’s the reason: because my experience is when you talk to a guy like BP's CEO, he's going to say all the right things to me. I'm not interested in words. I'm interested in actions,” Obama told NBC. “We are communicating to him every single day exactly what we expect of him.”

Allen stresses in the letter that the oil giant is “responsible for all costs associated with the response to the spill… as well as support long term recovery efforts to ensure that all individuals and communities impacted by the spill are made whole.”.....

....

In a Facebook post Tuesday, former Republican Vice Presidential Candidate and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin scoffed at the president’s explanation on NBC and mocked the press for taking so long to press the president on the issue.

“In all the discussions you’ve had with the White House about the spill, did it not occur to you before today to ask how the CEO-to-CEO level discussions were progressing to remedy this tragedy? You never cease to amaze,” Palin wrote. “This revelation is further proof that it bodes well to have some sort of executive experience before occupying the Oval Office.”

Palin is now telling the Whitehouse what to do and they are following her advice. The power of Palin continues to grow.

This is just too funny. Big egg on their face for 0 and the WH. They must be feeling dumber than usual right now.

Hayward will be out numbered 10 to 1 in that meeting. Sissy boy will surround and intimidate him with his thugs. 0bama would never have a private one-on-one.

You have to wonder who is LEADING the country at this point. Obama or Palin. Obama might have the title but Palin has the heart and soul of the nation it would appear.

Liberal heads exploding tonight all across this great land......need more popcorn

did you see the news-story about the UK telling Obama to back off of BP? seems the brits don't like the way Obama is treating their oil company.

so much for mending our standing in the world.

well he is the POTUS and for all I can not stand him I would hate to see someone disrespect the office in that way but if any president deserves the middle finger its Obama.

When are they going to summon the people from the interior department of Mineral Management Services that gave BP a pass on this rig and hold them accountable as well?

Mister Obama is sooooooo uncomfortable with ever telling the truth, that he instinctively constructs a contorted pretzel of a painfully obvious premeditated lie that's as obvious as every other lie that with which he attempts to deceive us.

Mister Obama is completely predictable. He never accepts any blame or shoulders presidential responsibility. He is only worried about blaming someone else, and and doing so in an historically undignified manner.

I'm not interested in words. I'm interested in actions,” obama told NBC.

He could say that with a straight face? The man must be (well, we know he is) a consummate liar. That's all obama is, words. Socialist/Marxist/fascist words to be sure, but fundamentally obama has never done anything in his life.

0 is too busy with photo ops and parties to do anything that resembles leadership.

It's like since 2008 Liberals have been staring in “My name is earl sitcom” Karma is catching up to them with the exact opposite of what they intend to do happening.

they wanted to destroy Palin they made her stronger

they wanted to pass healthcare to cement their rule for 40 years, by passing it they stand a great chance of losing both houses of congress

Obama wanted to avoid blame so he distance himself form the spill which made him get more blame then he would of in the first place.

Karma is a beautiful thing. I need to stock up on popcorn
