Capitalistic free enterprise created this disaster, and I guess we'll wait for capitalistic free enterprise to contain it.

Because god forbid we have socialist government strict regulation or takeover of private business.

Even if that private business makes it's money off the resources owned collectively by all Americans, even if that private business can ruin part of the United States forever, and even if that private business can ruin the lives and businesess of millions of American citizens.

Then I trust, in retrospect, that you are equally outraged at the selling out of America with the acts that set this catastrophe in motion.

When Clinton allowed as you say, "the resources owned collectively by all Americans", to be pilaged while arbitrarily waving royalty fees rightfully due to Americans. Giving big oil companies our resources for free thereby igniting 'a deep sea oil rush' that in turn harmed American citizens. Ladies and Gentlemen we have witnessed a major FUBAR capable of being performed by only the likes of a Bill Clinton or Al Gore. Then again he does feel our pain.

"In retrospect"? No, at the time.

So the cause of the spill was capitalism? No reach there. Nothing like turning this mess into a reason to peddle your agenda. Kudos

Yeah, this president is a joke, and a bad joke at that.

So what would our other choice, John McCain, be doing today about this if he were President?

Private drilling = capitalism = free enterprise = business. I'm all for it. The difference is I'm also all for taking responsibility for it.

Awesome! I'm catching on with these comebacks -- one day soon I'll be lobbing nifty ones like that all by myself! I'll just say "why don't we just put a hammer and sickle on the flag" or "Pelosi Plasticface" or "comrade" or "CarterELEVENTY!!!!!!" every time Riot posts anything and I'll get 10 pies per post for my quick wit and unflappable brilliance in the face of her leftist, socialist, (insert any word we barely know the meaning of but sounds incredibly dangerous) propaganda!!11!!1!!

I've never called Bush a "war criminal" or a "fascist". You have a problem with those that do, call them names - not me.

Riot has worked so hard she is disserving of all her accolades. Don't rain on her parade.

I suppose captialism caused Chernobyl as well?

I don't know anything about oil rigs (as a matter of fact there is only one poster that I know of that has ever stepped foot on one) but this seemed to be an accident. People who are proclaiming that stricter govt regulation could have prevented this are guessing as well. Acting as if BP didn't care that this happened is beyond idiotic. Everyone is monday morning quarterbacking this deal now and taking away our rights because of an accident regardless of how devastating the results are is a dangerous path. Naturally these same people (Riot) champion the rights of terrorists yet seem willing to handover private business to the govt.

Uh ok...
