I don’t see apologizing to the BP exec who supports Cap and Trade, gives most of their money to Democrats, and was a willing participant in giving Obama a 20 billion slush fund as a “conservative principle”.
We should be attacking Obama for the shakedown, not apologizing to BP.
Barton’s words, he apologized for an American President behaving like a 3rd worlder, he did not apologize for PB’s spill.
[Barton] complained that “the attorney general of the United States, who is legitimately conducting a criminal investigation and has every right to do so to protect the interests of the American people, [is] participating in what amounts to a $20 billion slush fund that’s unprecedented in our nation’s history, that’s got no legal standing, and which sets, I think, a terrible precedent for the future.”
“I apologize,” Barton added. “I do not want to live in a country where any time a citizen or a corporation does something that is legitimately wrong is subject to some sort of political pressure that is — again, in my words, amounts to a shakedown. So I apologize.”
“I’m speaking now totally for myself,” he noted. “I’m not speaking for the Republican Party.”
