BP is one of those politically correct globalist leftwing organizations and has been for years.

Interesting how Obama says “BP is financially responsible for failure of the oil rig”.. I bet BP wished they were a Bank, Auto maker, or a mortgage company so they could get a BAIL OUT for their failure.

Getting money out of a greedy dems hand is like getting blood from a turnip. It’s not going to happen.
