You mentioned Obama receiving consecutively numbered money orders from BP employees.
No, I didn't. That was Charlie Trie.

Because BP pulled this going cheap crap, don't you think something needs to be corrected in their case. I have been sitting here, thinking, going over the permit materials for this well I am on and it dawned on me....
Someone signed off on the well plan. SOmeone with the government saw the casing diagrams, weights and specifications, and approved them.
I don't know who or with what agency, but likely MMS was involved, and possibly others.
But someone put the stamp on the package before the permit to drill was issued, guar-an-teed!

My guess it was pretty much a rubber stamp.
The part I just can't wrap my mind around is BP knew how bad everything was going and they bulled ahead anyway making bad decision after bad decision. Their corporate decision making structure has to be worse than a Dilbert cartoon.
