Obama wants the government to take over as many companies as possible as he already did last year. So, naturally, all Obama did was ban further offshore drilling to his delight knowing it will strangle the oil industry. That is why he did not respond until after 2 weeks and was not angry at first. He was so happy about what he would gain he forgot to frown at the camera to show Americans he was angry. Later he relented and rolled up his sleeves and made a good serious face in front of the teleprompter. In the end,1) jobs losses in the fishing and oil industry will severely impact America; 2) the Gulf of Mexico will be a toxic sewer that in effect destroys all natural habitat along the shore; 3) Obama takes over BP and other bankrupt companies achieving his goal. Then George Soros uses his puppetering skills to make Obama dance as half of America goes in shock an the other half continues to fight him.

Is the BP oil spill Obama’s Katrina? Why not? In politics, fortune can change overnight. A politician could be hailed as a hero one day, but might be seen as a scoundrel the next. The president’s earlier inaction about the disaster has tarnished his popularity quite a bit, and now his third visit to the Gulf does not seem to help. Public anger is looming. And many people for one reason or another will be getting angrier for a long time to come. (vzc43)

Listening to various Americans attacking Obama over this is very strange.All steps were being taken from day one of the disaster. What more do they want him to do? Dive down himself and stick his finger in the well?

Several hundred miles of beach have been covered with oil for weeks now and the federal government has done nothing to clean it up. Under the law (33 U.S.C. 1321(c)), "The President shall, in accordance with the National Contingency Plan and any appropriate Area Contingency Plan, ensure effective and immediate removal of a discharge, and mitigation or prevention of a substantial threat of a discharge, of oil or a hazardous substance - (i) into or on the navigable waters; ... ..." Now how hard is it to clean up oil on a beach? Citizens are already taking matters into their own hands. If Obama would just send half of the flunkies he has strewing rose petals in his path down to the Gulf with some shovels and trash bags, there would be a lot more clean beaches and less dead wildlife. But he would rather milk this crisis to advance his agenda. Its time now for him to man up and execute the duties of his office, or resign.
