Especially at a time when there is a talk of energy independence. Not to mention a president that would like to see gas go beyond seven dollars so that we don't use so much. Anyone, or is it just me?<br /><br />Deborah LeighAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-37812761168877131992010-05-28T20:28:42.491-04:002010-05-28T20:28:42.491-04:00Gotcha, Richard.

Like, for instance, killing the movement to drill more (so he wouldn't have to live up to his sop to the public), or nationalizing the oil (and energy) sector, perhaps? I've always entertained conspiracy theories as a kind of amusement, never taking the vast majority of them seriously, but you know, it's not funny anymore.RebeccaHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15113907852048577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-36150531523588868682010-05-28T19:51:49.928-04:002010-05-28T19:51:49.928-04:00RebeccaH, the Administration has been hamstringing...RebeccaH, the Administration has been hamstringing this deal from the word 'go', between their inept micromanagement and their insistence that nothing be done without the approval they weren't there to give...<br /><br />The guy in this mess with real cojones is Jindal.

...The Boy-in-Chief will <i>never</i> take responsibility.<br /><br />That said, I do think it's unfair to blame him for "failing to cap the well". That was BP's job, and I believe they are doing whatever they can, not only for "the environment", but because this is costing them beaucoup money. It's just one of those nasty, ugly things.<br /><br />OTOH, The Great O's PR machine is as ham-handed as Bush's was. And at least, Bush would have been interested.RebeccaHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15113907852048577121noreply@blogger.com
