When you confront a disaster of this size you mobilize all possible resources and bring them to bear on the problem. But not if you're the Obama Administration. You dither around careful not to upset your pals in Big Labor

Unions...he is controlled by them...all one has to do is look at Andy Stern, SEIU, AFL-CIO, etc.

He wants the destruction.
That much is obvious.

I doubt Obama knows what the Jones Act is.

At first I doubted he even knew of the existence of the Jones Act or that President Bush suspended the act following Hurricane Katrina.
Now he’s stuck, big time. The unions are perfectly happy to see the people in the Gulf lose their economy. I doubt the fishermen are unionized.

Why is Obama refusing to waive the Jones Act?
Why is he turning down help from all over the US?
Why isn’t he letting them build sand berms in Louisiana?
Why is he acting like he wants to nationalize energy?

The Jones Act is about shipping and trade. There is no shipping and trade involved in cleaning up an environmental mess. Barry0 is acting stupidly!

While Obama dithers in his bad leadership of the Oil Spill...Barrack's dithering is surpassed only by his poor judgement.
