Mr. President, take command

Surprising, coming from the Commie News Network!

“Take command”?

Without a teleprompter or affirmative action program?

Nothing they can do. It is a mile deep and the Riser broke when the Drillship sank. Now it is drill baby drill to intercept and kill. August!

Hmm, still, this smacks more of the media lapdogs laying groundwork for another fascist seizure of power - a nationalization of the energy industry for the "good" of the nation and the environment - and less like a legitimate attack on Obuttocks.

Take command..of your jump shot! This kenyan’s a joke..

“I’m from the government, I am here to help.”

Hey CNN -

He has NO command experience. We tried to tell you that during the election.

He can't take command, he doesn't know how. We have 2 more years of this crap.

Now, do your jobs and point how worthless this narcissistic man-child is so that we do not have to endure another term of this crap.

As another brilliant Freeport put it, “if they could only stuff Obamas EGO into the hole, all problems would be solved”.

” He can’t take command, he doesn’t know how. We have 2 more years of this crap.

Now, do your jobs and point how worthless this narcissistic man-child is so that we do not have to endure another term of this crap. “

Speaking of a man-child, don’t forget David ga ga goo goo Gergen.

Obama has a huge problem.His press flacks like Gergen and Matthews are demanding he take command, plug the hole. Tell BP to stand down while SuperObama takes over. One problem, in the entire federal govt there does not exist the knowledge, skill, or technology to do anything to plug the hole.

BO/BS has taken command but not in terms of that help Americans.

Top PR firm for BP tied to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel

Bombshell expose'. The real reason the oil still flows into the Gulf of Mexico.

Barry can’t and won’t take charge of capping the oil well.
1. He hasn’t the slightest idea what to do
2. If he does take control, then when it’s not capped
he owns it
3. He likes to blame others
4. He’ll have to answer endless questions from the press
when the well is still leaking in August

The undocumented Pres_ _ent Obama has already taken command.

Obama's Oil

1) Pres_ _ent Obama gets $$$$$ from BP ............. check
"Obama biggest recipient of BP cash
BP and its employees have given more than $3.5 million
to federal …with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama"

"Obama White House and British Petroleum (BP), which pumped $71,000 into Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign
are covering up the magnitude of the volcanic-level oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico."

“Top PR firm for BP tied to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel
PR firm Greenberg Quinlan Rosner "helped BP plan and evaluate its successful re-branding campaign,
focusing the company's branding on energy solutions, including the development of solar and other renewable energy sources."
The firm's Stanley Greenberg is married to Rep. Rosa De Lauro, D-Conn.
There was something of a flap last year when it was pointed out that White house Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had been living in the couple's Capitol Hill townhouse and resulting in a lot of questions about whether or not this arrangement violated congressional ethical guidelines.
Further, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee paid Greenberg's firm some $500,000 in 2006 and 2008 while Emanuel was living with Greenberg, and Emanuel was even in charge of the DCCC during the 2006 election cycle.."

Bombshell expose'. The real reason the oil still flows into the Gulf of Mexico.
The real money is in the use of dispersements.
There is a company called NALCO. They make water purification systems and chemical dispersements.
NALCO is based in Chicago with subsidiaries in Brazil, Russia, India, China and Indonesia. "

2) The secret reasons for the $$$$$ to Obama ............. check
BP oil leak: Fallen Deepwater Horizon was tapping second largest oil deposit in the world
If there is a single aspect to the dangers of the BP oil leak,
it lies in the question CEO Tony Hayward and other BP executives
have been avoiding since the first drop of oil went rogue: How much oil is leaking?
The real answer is - more than anyone wants to admit,
because the well holds enough oil to make Saudi Arabian drillers jealous."

3) Pres_ _ent Obama exempts BP from normal requirements ......... check

Gulf oil spill: BP has a long record of legal, ethical violations
…. the London-based company has a penchant for putting profits ahead of just about everything else.
Over the past two decades, BP subsidiaries have been convicted three times of
environmental crimes in Alaska and Texas, including two felonies. It remains on
probation for two of them. "

Federal Regulator Repeatedly Failed to Inspect Deepwater Horizon - Including for... Obama Presidency
ABC News has learned that in the 16 months from January 2009 through April 2010
MMS failed to inspect Deepwater Horizon four times - in May 2009, August 2009, December 2009, and January 2010."

"U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study"

"Obama admin exempted BP's Gulf drilling from environmental impact study "

"Obama sheltered BP's Deepwater Horizon rig from regulatory requirement"

"Red Flags Were Ignored Aboard Doomed Rig "

"US allowed drilling 'without required permits"

"U.S. Said to Allow Drilling Without Needed Permits
The federal Minerals Management Service gave permission to BP …
to drill in the Gulf of Mexico without first getting required permits "

Internal Documents Show Early Worries About Safety of Rig
BP internal documents show they knew the risk of using thin casing in high pressure, lied to MMS."

BP reports warning signs before gulf oil rig explosion"

"Heated Argument on Rig Hours Before Blast ( Deepwater Horizon oil spill )
Mr. Brown said Transocean's crew leaders-including the rig operator's top manager,
Jimmy W. Harrell-strongly objected to a decision by BP's top representative, or
"company man," over how to start removing heavy drilling fluid and replacing it with
lighter seawater from a riser pipe connected to the well head. Such pipes act as conduits
between the rig and the wellhead at the ocean floor, and carry drilling fluid in and out of the well."

"Workers on doomed BP oil rig: Corners were cut to save money
Two workers injured when an oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico told Congress on
Thursday that the companies in charge of the doomed drilling operation cut corners and
neglected maintenance in a race toward higher profits.
MMS official Jason Mathews, one of the panelists who questioned Harrell, noted that the
project was several weeks behind schedule, a delay that had cost more than $20 million at
a daily rate of $525,000."

"BP Used Riskier Method to Seal Oil Well Before Blast
Several days before the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig, BP officials chose,
partly for financial reasons, to use a type of casing for the well that the company knew
was the riskier of two options, according to a BP document.
BP's decision was "without a doubt a riskier way to go," said Greg McCormack,
director of the Petroleum Extension Service at the University of Texas at Austin"

"U.S. oil drilling regulator ignored experts' red flags on environmental risks
Minerals Management Service officials, who can receive cash bonuses in the thousands
of dollars based in large part on meeting federal deadlines for leasing offshore oil and gas
exploration, frequently changed documents and bypassed legal requirements aimed at
protecting the marine environment, the documents show."

5) Pres_ _ent Obama, BP, and the DNC begin the obstruction ......... check
"There Was 'Nobody in Charge' (Deepwater Horizon Explosion and Fire)
In the minutes after a cascade of gas explosions crippled the Deepwater Horizon on April 20,
....Andrea Fleytas, a 23-year-old worker who helped operate the rig's sophisticated navigation machinery,
suddenly noticed a glaring oversight: No one had issued a distress signal to the outside world,
she recalls in an interview. Ms. Fleytas grabbed the radio and began calling over a signal monitored by the Coast Guard and other vessels.
"Mayday, Mayday. This is Deepwater Horizon. We have an uncontrollable fire."
When Capt. Kuchta realized what she had done, he reprimanded her, she says.
"I didn't give you authority to do that," he said, according to Ms. Fleytas, who says she responded: "I'm sorry."

Limited Media Access to Oil Spill?
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Media organizations say they are being allowed only limited
access to areas impacted by the Gulf oil spill through restrictions on plane and boat traffic
that are making it difficult to document the worst spill in U.S. history."

BP buses in 400 for photo op with Obama

Jefferson Parish Councilman Chris Roberts, whose district encompasses Grand Isle, told
Yahoo! News that BP bused in "hundreds" of temporary workers to clean up local
beaches. And as soon as the president was en route back to Washington, the workers were clearing out of Grand Isle too
A local radio host suggested that the White House was behind the effort to set up the photo op. ."

Roberts said the workers were offered $12 an hour to come out to the scene at Grand Isle and work.
But, when Obama departed, so did the workers, he said."

7) The REAL DEAL: Pres_ _ent Obama displays utter incompetance (again) ......... check
"Louisianans take oil cleanup in own hands as frustration mounts."

"Worst Press Conference Since " I Am Not A Crook"
It's hard to imagine a Republican president getting away with the weasel words offered
today by Barack Obama. The President couldn't determine if MMS head Elizabeth
Birnbaum was fired or she resigned. Even the Obama bread carriers at CBS were skeptical:
Elizabeth Birnbaum's departure was first reported as a "firing." Later, a "resignation."
When asked for clarity, President Obama told the press corps today he had no idea."

"President Obama Returns to LA to Assess the Oil Crisis
Prepare for another impact from the deep water Horizon accident: higher energy prices.
It`s not the rupture of the well itself that`s going to influence prices, but a six-month
extension of the moratorium on new deep water drilling projects declared yesterday by
the Obama administration. Bernstein Research predicts if the moratorium continues
for a year, it would cut global oil supplies by 500,000 barrels a day between 2013
and 2017. …The Bernstein report expects new regulations to add about 10 percent
to the price tag of offshore production. U.S. drillers will get hit first, but if the new
tougher regulations become the worldwide standard, then offshore drillers every."

8) The REAL DEAL: Pres_ _ent Obama destroys America (again) ......... check
"Analysis: Could U.S. Lose 200 Rigs by the End of Summer?
The Philadelphia Oil Service Sector index, commonly known by its ticker OSX, is based
on the stock market movements of 15 oil service company components.

Most recently the OSX peaked on April 23rd at 228.22, the day after the Deepwater
Horizon sank. Subsequently, the index has fallen 20% as both the broader markets have
been roiled by European concerns and the oil prices have begun to re-couple with
fundamentals (i.e. excess inventory levels). Crude oil has fallen 14% in recent weeks.
If the recent fall of the OSX and commodities foreshadows a similar move in the US rig
count, then a pullback to 1300 rigs or a 15% decline from current level of 1518 rigs
would not be a huge surprise. Of the 200 rigs that would be sidelined, a split of 45% oil
and 55% gas rigs removed from the count seems plausible."

But, daddy did YOU plug the hole’???

“...he has manfully taken personal responsibility...”

That’s sexist!

If David Gergen is telling you to take command...

...you might just be a Useless Evil Nitwit.

Excellent article!

Meanwhile, obama continues to vacation.

Even “Mumbles” Gergen gets one right now and then.

Take command and do what, exactly??

Premier Hussein talks a good line but in fact he has never run so much as a lemonade stand, so what the hell does anyone think he is going to do about this blownout oil well??

Maybe Hussein will get that battleship that the Huffing and Puffington Post recommended BP sink on top of the well. Or maybe he can order NASA to build the giant screwdriver to drive the giant screw into the well.

Like it or not, BP is still the single most qualified company to continue to try and stop this, and it would be a blunder of monumental proportions if Premier Hussein were to go down there and even try to “take command”. What an utterly ridiculous idea!!

First Matthews now David Gergen???

The tide may be turning.
