Obama couldn’t manage a sidewalk taco stand.
"The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government, are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."
LoL. I laugh every time I read that one. To think anyone ever took it seriously!
Heck of a job, Brownie.
The inefficiency is stunning, though it shouldn’t be.
Hey!
Did you hear they’ve invented a car that runs on water?
It’ll run on water...as long as the water comes from the Gulf!
Ineptitude is one thing (as DM noted) but this is malice.
I think that this book cover accurately reflects my thoughts on the matter of this president.
The US response to this spill (which I place in completely separate categories) has been despicable, sub-moronic.
It has been idiotic both from the practical standpoint...as in actually getting something done. To not have deployed oil skimming assets at the point where this spill was revealed as the size it was and is. And it has been a policy blunder from the standpoint of 0bama’s & the administration’s failure to take advantage of all the help offerings from other countries. I mean, what a miserable dumb scumbag, he could have shown he was this world leader, all connected to everything, by letting in these other countrys’ assets. But no, either he has zero leadership ability [check] or he is so beholden to the Jones act and its implications as to domestic union labor [probably check] or he is just one insensitive clod determined to make life as miserable as possible for BP.
In any interpretation, the prevention and remediation effort has been a colossal failure on his part, IMHO. I really hope he pays for it.
Obama is the kind of guy that will pinch a loaf in a toilet stall before discovering there isn’t any toilet paper.
Not that any of them will realize it. Elitists are not common people, they have no common sense.
OUTSTANDING FReeper humor BUMP!
(Hey Dick...what about that 20B agreement between the tyrannical branch of government and BP? How about we see it? How can Barry “This Is Not a Cap” OFascist make that claim?)
Agreed with Morris until the last paragraph...” well-meaning bureaucrats.”
There is NO SUCH THING. All bureaucrats, by definition, cannot think for themselves or apply common sense for fear of bucking the organization and losing their jobs. There is NOTHING well-meaning at all about them. They just seek self-preservation at all costs and don’t give a damn about the consequences to anybody else.
Oh yeah, the oil spill... Is that still going on?
Bump for later reading
Obama administration is intentionally obstructing clean up letting the oil damage spread.
It’s not a bungle when you do something on purpose.

Podesta clan’s close ties to Obama pay off big
EXCERPT
Tony has represented BP since 2006, recently lobbying for current climate legislation. BP was a prized ally for Sen. John Kerry, who is leading the charge in the Senate for a global warming bill.
According to the Wall Street Journal, John Podesta is nearly writing the president’s response to the BP spill. While Obama hasn’t coddled BP, he is using the spill to advance the climate legislation BP supports and for which Tony Podesta has been lobbying.
