Schumer was stuck with the task of going after Bp about this...and I'm guessing Hillary is behind this someplace especially because it's gonna make Obama look foolish.

Is Obama about to shelve Hillary?

Exactly! And with the help of ABC. The headline SCREAMS that BP was behind the release, but if there's any evidence of this in the actual article, I missed it.

It’s not too clear from the article who was asking the questions. The Washington Press corps? I doubt whether Obama himself would stir that one up.

There was a good deal of discussion at the time it happened that it was not just the Scots who released him, but that probably Gordon Brown pressured them behind the scenes to do so, because Libya was refusing to negotiate an oil deal until he was released.

So, I would blame Libya and Brown first and foremost, and only then BP, which was presumably involved in the deal.

I bet B.P. drowns puppies and kicks kids wearing crutches too.

Say what you like. over 250 men women and children were murdered by a man now whooping it up at his home in Libya.
It took a decade to bring him to justice only to have him released by the brits. Where is justice in that bulls#t?

I watched a little bit of the fox news on their joint news conference and found it very disrespectful of Bo every time he refereed to the PM calling him Dave. And the PM every time he spoke of BO saying the President. It just goes to show you, who had the better up bringing. I was waiting to for the PM to say yo Bo and I but he keep calling him the President.
