WOW, another Senator gushing forth ... and how about this Senator? U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study April 2009 was the date for the exemption ... A failure to regulate, why is that never found to be government's fault.

Looks like the MMS was more mindful of political contributions than they were for the environment.

And Senator, how about those gushers over at Fannie and Freddie, spewing out loans to people who cannot repay them. Isn't that criminal?

If I had my way, I would march all these Senators and Congressmen off to the hoosegow and sort it out over the next years who was actually guilty of malfeasance.

The biggest oil slick of all, while we talk about criminals.

It was a sweet deal, MMS waivers for campaign cash, while it lasted.
