I'm a lil on the drunk side but.....


You are crazy if you think this obama is overly involved in buisness afairs. If he repo'd BP tossed everyone that works there whose income is over 500,000 in jail, and distributed all the siezed money by pasenger pigeons to the families of those impacted, then you might have a case.

But honestly, that sounds like a pretty damn good idea.

Katrina happened... and Bush just twiddled his thumbs, same with 9/11... Presidents have the power and position to help organize groups better from their role as commander and chief, but Bush failed miserably, and Obama is doing the same thing right now... :ermm:

I know where youre comin from but theres not that much Obama CAN do. Besides, Obama is more of a behind the scenes guy that prefers to get stuff done in private. Hes not the type that stages photo ops and tries to feign outrage in public to make it SEEM like hes doing a lot

There is a lot more he could do from his position, if he wanted to... If he would of said "We should organize engineers to help resolve this problem right now" from the beginning... or when things started to get worse, then it would have given him more credibility... Instead, he has passed off the reigns to the company who caused the disaster with the cleanup, and the investigation...

Very true... most of them get more rich by the day, while we sink further into debt... There is a disconnect from the people, and the government... They want us to think they're like us, but they're really not...

the article said BP was going to cover the $360 mill for costs.

whats the cost of letting thousands of gallons of oil leak?

BP is one of the richest companies in the world, C'MON SON!
Let me try and make this simpler since you seem to be missing the point

If "A" believes they can do "B" for "Y" they dont pay "C" to do it for "Z."

Got that one covered?

Now...

BP has begun paying about $360 million to cover the costs.
This is NOT the cost of the foreign aid, that $360mm is ONLY for the sand barrier obama ordered to be built.

Now back to this unknown figure, their OFFER to the "USA and BP" would of meant what? we would of been responsible for the cost of that aid - which would of meant what? fining BP even more? which would of meant what? gas prices rising so WE can pay an even bigger fine ?



You aren't 12, you should know by now everything isn't black and white.

LOL Can you imagine O'Reilly, Lou Dobbs, and what the fuckins face Glenn Beck if Obamka took Dutch help?

"Look at our president going to EUROPE for help with this problem!"

Fuckin Republican front porch shotgun politics tie the hands of our politicians.

It's really damned if you do, damned if you dont.
