With millions of gallons of crude oil wreaking havoc on the Gulf of Mexico, the White House announced today that President Barack Obama will assess the efforts to stop the massive oil leak... but not until after he hosts a fancy fundraiser... with wealthy oil heirs Ann and Gordon Getty in San Francisco this evening...
The events are scheduled to be held at the Fairmont Hotel, in the city's affluent Nob Hill district, and at the home of Ann and Gordon Getty, wealthy philanthropists who head their family's billion dollar trust.
The decision to raise campaign funds with Getty the heir to the multi-billion-dollar Getty Oil fortune draws even further attention to the Presidents misplaced priorities as he flies across the continent for a campaign fundraiser while a major man-made disaster damages the ecosystem and economy of the Gulf Coast...
"In the wake of this ongoing national crisis, why didnt the Democrats reschedule his fancy fundraiser with the billionaire oil heirs and allow the President to direct his full attention toward the massive disaster that is plaguing the Gulf Coast? asked National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) spokeswoman Amber Marchand.
No wonder he does want anybody watching him play golf. He’s standing on the wrong side of the ball.
I thought I had read something about Getty having a mistress and children. Sure enough. A quick search found this:

No wonder the Gettys are raising money for a Democrat with Obama.

What you want to bet he cheats at golf? Obvious he isn’t good.
I’m thinkin’ golf and basketball are just excuses to hang out with the “boys” and maybe hit a sauna or bath afterwards to wind down.
As of Tuesday morning, he was still waiting for the federal government to provide millions of feet in booms and to approve an emergency permit for a state plan to dredge and build new barrier islands to keep the oil from reaching the marshes and wetlands.
Jindal, who is so desperate for the islands that he says he'll build them himself even if it means going to jail, states: "We need more booms, more skimmers, more vacuums, more jack-up barges that are still in short supply. Let's be clear: Every day that this oil sits is one more day that more of our marsh dies."
Louisiana's Jindal: Where's Obama?
Governor Jindal won't be appearing at any fundraisers for the foreseeable future. He'll be much too busy doing both his and Obama's J-O-B-s.
Hey, I play left-handed....but do everything else right-handed incl tennis, pitching, putting and voting.
Obamanation has to go!! There are so many reasons to start impeachment hearings against this pretender to the Oval Office. I am so frustrated that this hasn’t been started.
