President Obama admitted that he hasn’t met with or spoken directly to BP’s CEO Tony Hayward. His reasoning: “Because my experience is, when you talk to a guy like a BP CEO, he’s gonna say all the right things to me. I’m not interested in words. I’m interested in actions.”

But of course he deals with dictators in exactly the opposite way: Bowing, glad-handing, and basically tongue-bathing. Why can't he demand the same "actions" from rogue states that he wants from corporations?

He sounds like a stupid junior high school punk....really really disgusting. And "my experience"...what a sick joke. He wouldn't make it 10 minutes as a real CEO. Reminds me of Blagojevich on the Apprentice - all he could do was talk - not good at anything else.
