Obama's Oil Spill

Thunder Gulch · #1 05-26-2010, 06:41 PM

So it's ok to accept the worsening disaster with no effort to minimize the impact on the shoreline because we all know BP is at fault??? Watching CNN there appears to be absolutely nothing being done with a sense of urgency. The Prez will show up on day 39 and tell us about what he is going to do for everyone and how he will hold BP accountable, but the oil is steadily getting worse in the marshes of Louisiana while no cleanup or preventative measures are being taken. Blame BP and fine them 20 billion dollars but in the meantime get down there and clean the damn thing up.

There is a middle ground here without a doubt. I'm just suspicious of the righties who are clammoring to attach anything that goes wrong anywhere to Obama. And no...Bush never faced that...only the things he WAS responsible for..like a freakin' war.

the leak has nothing to do w/Obama, Bush or Mars! Cap it and let these bastards (BP and Lloyds of London) pay!!!!! Then lets Fannie and Freddie free! Like Willie! The whale not the former Pres!

i beg to differ. it's in each parties best interest to bash everything the other does-every move, issue, is dissected to determine how best to attack, and gain points. it's how the dems got both congress and white house, when only a few short years ago we were reading their obituary. then, in the last year, it was the republicans on life support.

And I love it when Republicans start being concerned with wildlife...that's a first. And no, your duel membership bumperstickers of NRA and Ducks Unlimited doesn't count.

C'mon you lived in the state. No one but WI and every other state who has wild life has that concern.

OK..I'll broaden that..since when have Republicans ever been concerned about the planet? Come on Dell...who has been pushing for more off shore drilling the last 10 years and who hasn't?
