I really don’t see what Obama should have done differently or if this get stopped why he deserves any credit. People need to make every disaster about politics for some reason.

There was nothing Obama could do about the leak. His responsibility was for the oil already in the water. Now its across hundreds of miles of shoreline. Lots he could have done there but didn't, in fact he prevented things from being done.

The Messiah shouted "Plug the Damn Hole" and presto, it was done! Maybe he should have told them a lot sooner?

Oh, and yes...he will proceed to take the credit.

No submarines fired wire-guided ADCAP torpedoes ... Tom Strickland elected to go on vacation ... Talk was made of starting the oil on fire (not the best option, but better than nothing) and various measures suggested, but little was done. ... Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal [was stonewalled on] barrier islands ...”

Bobby Jindal who is still waiting for permits and environmental impact statements so he can add to the barrier islands would disagree.

Every decision Obama makes (or doesn’t make) about this accident, is based on future law suits, liabilities and general blame. Everything this administration does is based on politics and the coming election.
