any links to obama giving it a safety award??
Someone has to be thrown under the bus. Which reminds me...that dame that was fired by Obama....She was a big enviro nazi at one time...hired by Salazar.
Where'd she go?? Don't want her testimony?? A walk in Marcy Park??
Send this to all your liberal friends.
Unfortunately it’s an AP story so it can’t be trusted. However, if it is true, it’s going to leave a mark.
See post #19 as well as this link below: It’s in the last paragraph of the article. (They buried the lead.)

thanks...
ping for later
Juan Williams just tried that on Hannity.
Get this to Glenn Beck and Rush.
These facts do not fit the MSM “narrative.” We’ll read them here, and nowhere else.
Very nice find, though.
It will be by the time she gets it re-written.
Her ex-husband's fortune was made from gas...of course he didn't do anything but inherit it.
Should Bush be a key word?
Obama top recipient of BP contributions last 20 yrs.
While the BP oil geyser pumps millions of gallons of petroleum into the Gulf of Mexico, President Barack Obama and members of Congress may have to answer for the millions in campaign contributions theyve taken from the oil and gas giant over the years.
BP and its employees have given more than $3.5 million to federal candidates over the past 20 years, with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Donations come from a mix of employees and the companys political action committees $2.89 million flowed to campaigns from BP-related PACs and about $638,000 came from individuals.

Obama sheltered BP’s Deepwater Horizon rig from regulatory requirement
Last year the Obama administration granted oil giant BP a special exemption from a legal requirement that it produce a detailed environmental impact study on the possible effects of its Deepwater Horizon drilling operation in the Gulf of Mexico, an article Wednesday in the Washington Post reveals.
Federal documents show that the Department of the Interior’s Minerals Management Service (MMS) gave BP a “categorical exclusion” on April 6, 2009 to commence drilling with Deepwater Horizon even though it had not produced the impact study required by a law known as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The report would have included probable ecological consequences in the event of a spill.

Oh, that got a lot of airplay. NOT.
Time to get this story out here. Have you sent it to Drudge?
I see a tweet in there somewhere.
And Bush gave warning after warning about the housing market and Fannie and Freddie and the Rats just sat on their butts saying “ain’t broke ain’t broke ain’t broke.”
Until they could no longer hide that it was, in fact, broken. Then they sat on their butts saying “Bush’s fault Bush’s fault Bush’s fault.”
Libs and anti-Bush environmentalists are all saying, “La la la la la I can’t hear you I see your lips moving but I can’t hear you cause I’m singing la la la la la and this whole oil mess is Bush’s fault and I know obama is going to fix it la la la la la...”
Using democrat logic, since bush gave it safety violations and obama gave it safety awards, it must be a safer operation since obama took office. Ergo, the failure is bush’s fault.
