Should Pres. Obama Resign Over Feb. 13? Oilbama knew of leak!

While defending his own policies President Obama has routinely been rude and sarcastic to his predecessor, George W. Bush. Yet Obama appears to be making the resident of the previous White House look like a genius compared to his own serious missteps in office.

Case in point – Interior Secretary Ken Salazar's performance and the communication of priorities on the issue of oil rig safety in the Gulf of Mexico.

It seems incomprehensible that the president and other members of the administration still have jobs when it is now being reported that the federal government was apprised by BP on February 13 that the Deepwater Horizon oil rig was leaking oil and natural gas into the ocean floor.

In fact, according to documents in the administration's possession, BP was fighting large cracks at the base of the well for roughly ten days in early February.

Further it seems the administration was also informed about this development, six weeks before to the rig's fatal explosion when an engineer from the University of California, Berkeley, announced to the world a near miss of an explosion on the rig by stating, "They damn near blew up the rig."

It's also now being reported that BP was asking for the administration's help on this matter long before the deadly accident and the now gushing well of tar.

Oh my! Wonder if the (major) media will pick this up, can’t you just imagine what they would have done if it were George W. Bush?

Should Obama resign? Over any number of things, yes. Will he? Not a chance. I think we’ll be lucky if he leaves when he’s voted out of office.

Oh no! If he resigns I’ll miss seeing him in handcuffs and an orange jumpsuit doing a perp walk. We can’t let him resign, I want him to get prison time!

There are probably at least a half dozen things he should “resign” over, not the least of which is he is a usurper, but don’t hold your breath. I’m convinced that he intends to be Dictator, and may try to remain in office even after the term he is usurping ends.

its 100 times worse than Katrina. New Orleans was warned to evacuate. I am beginning to think this was never an accident

I think it is credible that Obama would let such a situation deteriorate, but where is the evidence that such a report exists? I would think BP would be trumpeting it. The story needs something more to pass the smell test.

If it wasn’t for the compliant media we wouldn’t be in this mess now. They share full responsibility for the destruction of this nation along with the Marxist regime now in power.
