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.
