I’d add one more point:

The rig is located in FEDERAL waters, not the waters of any state.

“Plug the damn hole” ....Obama was actually making a statement about Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

With any luck, The One will try to slink out the back door instead of run again in 2012. He is taking quite a bruising these days...and it’s about time!

Another barracuda bite. Zero must really be starting to hurt.

The fact that he took a swipe at her with that line about “drill baby drill” during the press conference shows how much she gets under his skin.

As a Fox News employee, she must have press credentials. Maybe she should have attended the “press conference” and asked them in person.

If she entered the WH now they would melt like Vampires in the sunlight.

IMHO she should declare her run now...

Then she gets S-Service protection and they may checkmate Mr. McGunniess really nicely....

"The fundamental problem at the core of this crisis is a lack of responsibility. (I risk the President taking my comments personally, but they’re not intended to be personal; my comments reflect what many others feel, and we just want to help him tackle this enormous spill problem.)"

Funny.

He will take it personal. I am not trying to play arm-chair shrink here, but the physcological scramble egg that he is given his childhood (All FR's know the stories and the players) and the mention of a lack of responsibility ought to really rangle him.

He isn't going to like these few lines...

Wow. That really nails it, in a extremely accessible and straightforward manner.

Bump.

“Why is it that everyone wants smaller government, except when they want bigger government”

We want government to follow the law that is already on the books, not keep creating new laws. BP was supposed to have disaster plans. These disaster plans were supposed to be overseen by the government. Instead BP asked for an exemption and got it. Looks like those campaign donations worked in granting them their exemptions.

We have a government that interprets the law any way they want. To hell with the Constitution, lets just make it up as we go along.

I love Sarah Palin and, would eagerly vote for her to become POTUS USA, but her pleading to POTUS Obama is really a waste of time. Ms. Palin and most folks out on the hustings just don’t get it. Barack Hussein Obama wants to take down America, all of it. Problem is, he is about as incompetent as a human can become. I am beginning to believe he bests out Joe Biden as the dumbest man in the universe. That press conference of his yesterday was sickening, at best, insulting, at least. This America hater is so far in over his head that he will take the country down with him. He is also doing a terrific job of destroying the Democrat Party. No, Ms. Palin, this POTUS Obama needs to offer his resignation or, his political party (Democrat) should impeach him. His continued service as POTUS will only hurt and diminish American and Americans more.

If you think that Sarah Palin actually expects Obama to take her advice, you're completely misreading the tone and intent of these articles.

The whole point is to take Obama to the woodshed and to set herself as a contrast to him.

I thought that that was just a rhetorical device.

Inotherwords, she isn't REALLY "pleading" her case to the Prez; she's simply using that as a way to present all her views on this matter.

I was hoping we'd get a clear coherent article from her soon, and here it is.

One thing that I only learned last night was that Michio Kaku claims that it is entirely possible that NO top-kill of any kind will permanently work, and that the Gulf Oil Leak could last for YEARS.

Yes, for years & years & years.

I wonder if BHO has any idea....

This was in my opinion, no accident. It was one of obama’s “Reichstagg Fires”. With it he will eventually ban all oil drilling in the United States and territorial waters. The off shore drilling will be banned soon and the land drilling later.This will raise the price of oil drastically, particularly for private consumption. This fits into the Socialists plan to force the public to use mass transport and also restricts their freedom of movement,thus making them easier to control. Next will come the building of to force the people from isolated areas to move into, for their “own protection”.

obama is moving forward with his agenda. But we know that, don’t we.

I bet der Leader is really upset today after reading Palin’s commentary. She hit him again and again and again. The street aggitator is not used to that. Furthermore, he has her and Rush so far into his head, he believes they are cleaning his teeth.

Now, if everyone can keep the pressure on...upon this, the Sestak Issue, the Immigration issue and whatever else they can pick at...drip drip drip, just like when a bull is stabbed by a bunch of lances to sap his strength. The final thrust will come in 2012 when his Royal High Ass is removed.

He will not run.

Anybody see Larry King interview T. B. Pickens last night? He pointed out that our community organizer pulled the damage control/troubleshooting crew from trying to solve the problems so they could attend meetings! When will the madness end??

“...Ms. Palin ...”

She’s definitely and proudly a “Mrs.” Palin.

“Ms.” is a made-up appellation that so-called “Feminists” use. “Feminisim” is an offshoot of communist doctrine to revolutionize women and create intentional gender conflict.

Betty Friedan, the first to coin the term “feminism” was a hardcore Stalinist.

And I don’t see Mrs. Palin “pleading to POTUS Obama” as much as I see her NEEDLING him and tearing at the fraying edges of his already fragile, narcissistic ego.

Other than those to little irks, I agree with the rest of your post.
