Carville? “Look at me I’m still around and relevant, available for interviews.”

“There are foreign substances invading our coastline.”

I get it now. Foreign “substances” must be stopped from reaching American soil at all cost. Foreign “humans” must be helped onto American soil at all cost.

And how, precisely, would the White House intervene? They could take the shutdown effort out of BP’s hands but who would they turn it over to? There are other companies with the expertise to handle it but certainly the Govt can’t do anything to stop the flow short of declaring they will use a nuke to seal the well. Clearly, that option isn’t in BP’s bag of tricks.

I suppose they could place govt overseers onboard all the equipment to exercise full control of every aspect of the effort but that would only serve to slow everything down. However, I think the real reason govt is keeping it’s distance is the knowledge that they aren’t equipped to do anything BP isn’t already doing, sans the nuclear option.

"There are foreign substances invading our coastline."

And our Southern Border.

Obama is in a golf war and a basketball war. He's got a basketball Jones. "Screw the Gulf and the rednecks down there. They ain't voting again for me anyway."

"This is literally a war we're in," Democratic strategist James Carville told "Good Morning America" today. "There are foreign substances invading our coastline."

Nobody's shooting at you, Car-vile. Pipe down and let those who are really fighting do their jobs. Especially this weekend.

James Carville, your Democrat POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama could care less about your Louisiana kinfolk and neighbors, as well the rest of the Gulf Coast states. He is a total failure as our POTUS and is as anti-American as any enemy can become. What you and your Democrat buddies and gals should be doing, is forcing him to resign and, if he does not resign, impeach the incompetent, cold hearted, flim/flam man!!! That is what he deserves!!!

obama is trying to handle this like a sue-happy lawyer. All he and his adminstration have done is point out that BP is liable for this leak.

The pelicans, dolphins, sharks, shrimp, turtles don’t really care about who is legally liable. I don’t believe they really care about all the legalities.

This isn’t just political. This transcends politics and obama is fumbling big-time. He’s absolutely clueless.

He’s off his rocker. Obviously ignorant of the problems faced, and has no idea what he’s talking about.

How is the oil foreign? It is drilled in our waters. Moron.

This disaster will pass and get fixed. This oil leak is not the end of the world. It’s a disaster, to be sure.

All in all, oil is good and a blessing for everyone.

This is the Left's way of using the press to tell Zero how he should manage the spill and show that he is in "charge". Their only way is for the government to take control.

Big Government. it's what the Left believes is the only solution for every problem.

Just think if this oil well been successfully tapped and the oil had been refined and expelled into the atmosphere as normally intended. Al Gore must be giddy as a school girl over the ongoing results of this catastrophe.

I see that Carville has softened a bit on his previous harsh words for the Zero. Rahm must have paid him a “visit” recently to remind him to fall in line.

Open borders, Carville.

The gov't has no interest in protecting the borders.

“calls on the White House to intervene are growing.”

A formula for turning a disaster into a catastrophe. “Just plug the damn hole” pretty much summarizes the bammer’s universe of understanding. And since he’s surrounded himself with only those who’ve made careers preaching about stealing from the rich, the brain trust will fare no better. Ultimately, the leftist/facsist’s solution is to start having people arrested and shot, but not even the best efforts of the MSM could spin that into pablum for the unwashed masses.

Carville (aka “The Red Skull”), no, this is NOT “literally, a war we’re in.”

You dummy. “Literally” means the same thing. Not rhetorical exaggeration. As in “James Carville is literally a paid political spin doctor, who would defend the devil himself if he was a radical Democrat.”
