The oil spill is the fault of OBAMA and the DNC
because they took $$$$$$ from BP to lift the regulations.

The Obama Administration does not look like it is on top of the situation...but it is certainly critical of those working on the problem (as usual). What is the government doing to HELP without criticism?

MEMO TO WHITE HOUSE: Cannot blame Bush for this mess. It’s yours baby.

BP is certainly not guilt free but it serves their best interests to take care of this situation as quickly as possible.

It serves Obama’s best interests to make sure it hurts as many people as possible, as badly as possible, for as long as possible.

One of the parish presidents had suggested that a sand berm be built outside the barrier islands to stop the oil from getting in the marshes. The Corp of Engineers and the EPA are ‘studying the enviornemental impact’ of the plan. Duh!! What is a worse impact? Millions of gallons of oil in the fragile marshes or dredging the sea floor to block the oil?

Reagan was right; all too often government is the problem.

If you've read my other posts, you know I'm no Obama fan. However, to blame Obama for the events leading up to and after the BP blowout is kinda pot-kettle-black. Indeed, perhaps the only thing Obama has ever done right was to open the US to offshore drilling again. I hope he does the same for ANWAR, too. The fact that BP screwed up is just that, and they should be held responsible for it and pay for its clean up. My guess is that Obama could speed up that process by levying a $100,000/day fine for each day it's not capped, but to call off all offshore drilling is a long run mistake.

For goodness sake.. this leak has been poisoining the gulf for over a month now. The effects on ocean life will be devastasting and all anyone cares about is not fixing the problem but making sure the blame properly laid at someone’s doorstep. Lets stop the leak then then worry about whose fault it is.

“Obama’s decision to allow BP to take the lead on plugging the pipe”

What do they want? A Department of Pipe Plugging?

The Carvile’s have relocated to New Orleans. I suspect they have a monetary interest there and that is the basis for their bashing of Obama.

If they didn’t live there they would never be blaming anyone other than Bush.

I still don’t understand exactly what the federal government can really “do” here with BP doing everything it has been doing?

My sister and I were discussing this earlier this week.
This is why the MSM has backed off this story a LOT!

I’d love to see this bring O down, but I’d rather this spill never have happened to begin with.
