Is Obama Claiming Credit for Gulf Spill Solution?
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning, everybody. I wanted to give everyone a quick update on the situation in the Gulf. As we all know, a new cap was fitted over the BP oil well earlier this week. This larger more sophisticated cap was designed to give us greater control over the oil flow as we complete the relief wells that are necessary to stop the leak. Now, our scientists and outside experts have met through the night and continue this morning to analyze the data from the well integrity test. What they're working to determine is whether we can safely shut in the well using the new cap without creating new problems, including possibly countless new oil leaks in the sea floor.
Now BP's scientists are the "Scientists formerly known as They"

It doesn’t matter what he says, because it is not fixed.

I'm no friend of BP but they caped the well and probably could have done it sooner if it were not for King Obama wanting the oil to flow freely... A couple of weeks ago I heard on one of those "evil" talk radio programs that is exactly what happened. When it blew, BP had a list of options to try to stop the leak. The obama administration, via EPA, regulators, etc. forced them to start with the least favored option (ie. based on expense, likelihood to succeed, time to stop, etc.) In other words, they forced them to run the list from the bottom to the top. I believe obama and his cohorts in crime wanted, needed, another crisis. So they intentionally turned a moderately serious industrial accident into a region-wide disaster. Remember, to these elitists, we little people, including those on the Gulf, don't count. These elitists are pursuing their goals which they believe to be much bigger than any one (or million or two) of us.

A white dress shirt is a bit much for a hike, but this guy never seems to quite know which events are suited to a tshirt and which really call for a tie.

Daddy plugged the damn hole ... from Maine!Ya know, I never thought of this before but BO could've had MO sit on the leak. However, he didn't 'cause she's in those pictures from Maine (on OUR DIME) in *all her well-toned-arms glory*. Blech.

For a while I went to Catholic School where I was taught “Nothing meaningful has happened in the history of the world without Jesus and a Catholic priest being there”.
I’ll bet the farm the Dems change that to read nothing meaningful has ever happened until this marxist punk ass came along.

So are we all dressed up in our business finery and taking the boat to the office?
These people are devoid of all sensitivity concerning appropriate attire.
