The continued obfuscation by the Obamabots is absolutely amazing. There is absolutely no doubt that had this situation occurred under a Republican administration they would literally be rioting in the streets of Washington DC, Spike Lee would be firing up yet another documentary . . . and Hollywood would have a telethon, and the various environmental organizations would be running hour long infomercials.
Now all they do is fly air cover, and continually try to toss their Strawman "arguments" into the fray. When it comes to government intervention discussion, it was targeted at Government involvement in market driven business cycles, things like "to big to fail". It was targeted at legislation and government policy that either forced economically dangerous loose restrictions i.e. Frannie/Freddie HUD, and/or overly restrictive government oversight which prevented things like business start ups and proper business growth and expansion. It has NOTHING to do proper oversight of industrial operations from a safety perspective. Again, for like the 10,000th time, the oil rig was operating in FEDERALLY CONTROLLED WATERS . . . it was U.S. governments fiduciary responsibility to ensure safe operation, proper procedure and to be a significant force that is highly engaged in dealing with a disaster of this size. Any dumbass with a 5th grade education knows that with a stroke of a pen Barry could federalize this entire operation and place the U.S. Gov't in full control of getting the leaked stopped. But Barry won't do that because he's afraid he might look bad, and of course to advance his agenda (more on that later).
What do we know now. Well we know that Barry Obama was the biggest recipient of BP Political Action Money in the last 20 years. We know the Whitehouse COS lived rent free for 5 years in a home owned by a major BP lobbyist. We have Ken Salazar is on record talking about how BP was going to "save the world". We know that BP is a major proponent of Cap and Trade. This is why I laugh at the Obamatards. They viewed Cap and Trade and all the green initiatives as way to stick it to big oil. Well, I've got news for you dumbasses, the big oil/energy companies have set themselves up to stuff their coffers both coming and going. Why do think so many of them are pushing for Carbon Taxes and Cap and Trade?? We know that all the promises by Barry and Salazar to clean up the mineral office was all a bunch of lip service, they gave everyone a stern talking to, fired a couple of people and then completely ignored the situation after that . . . essentially invoking no real reform whatsoever. Salazar then put the largest expanses of Federally controlled waters ever up for bid for offshore drilling.
Barry gives a "major" speech from the Oval office, his first (looked like a complete idiot while doing it) . . . in which the American people are all waiting for him to show a strong hand in getting this disaster fixed. Instead it's more about his own policy initiatives. In fact, it was so transparent, so lame that even the biggest Barry loving zealots in media were absolutely floored.
At this juncture you can only look at that inaction of Obama's government as being purposely criminally negligent in order to advance a political agenda.
Next up . . . Them Terraists Might get Nukes and Al Queda attacked us on 9-11 therefore we're justified in our propagation and expansion of perpetual war (sounds familiar).
