The question that needs to be asked about the SLUSH FUND is why did BP agree to it so quickly?

BP is a multibillion dollar company. They have lawyers. They knew they could fight this. So what did they get in exchange?

Jamie Goreleck is one of them and I agree with you on the quick agreement by BP, the whole thing stinks.

Not to mention the fact the agreement was reached in a mere 20 minute meeting.

It's a heck of a deal for them. $5 Billion a year for a corporation that makes 3-4 times that each year, to protect them from greater liability? That's just smart business.

For those who say this is not the end of it, well it's going to be a real hard sell to get them to cough up more than that after the abuse they've taken at the hands of this idiot administration.
