As a Fox reporter brings up criticism likening the administration's response to [the Gulf oil spill] to President Bush's reaction to Hurricane Katrina, Gibbs launches into a tirade on Fox News for bringing former FEMA Director Michael Brown on the air to discuss the accusation that the Obama White House purposefully leaked the oil to walk back environmental and offshore drilling policies.
"You should call headquarters, my friend," Gibbs says to the Fox reporter, asking him to talk with the person who decides which guests to book. "Your network put on the former FEMA director to make an accusation that the well had been purposely set off in order to change an offshore drilling decision." (4:39 p.m.)

Your user name is ironic, considering your opinion on this thread.
It was an inopportune accident. I swear some people would blame a hurricane on 0. Good grief. Some people here can go as nutty as the DUmmies. Please.
I guess I don’t follow you. I don’t believe that this was sabotage. It was either an Act of God, a unforeseeable geologic formation, or it was negligence - someone not doing something, cheap cement, who knows.
I agree with the speaker in the interview. How does that make me nutty?
