But the companies were following the rules.<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>...and we get environmental disasters like this one. then of course it's time to holler for the good for nothing government to come in a clean up the mess, while everyone yells about how they're doing it wrong.</i><br /><br />False. As usual, it is the government that is unsure of what to do. BP has been working 24/7 to stop the leak since the day the explosion occurred. But government agencies have quibbled over building berms and other barriers to protect the shore from the oil. <br /><br />Meanwhile, BP is skimming oil from the surface of the Gulf and capturing well over half the oil as it comes out of the broken pipe at the bottom of the Gulf. <br /><br />In short, BP is making progress while the government wrestles with its own role.<br /><br />BP has accepted its responsibility and expects to pay for the clean-up. Where's the problem with BP's response?no_slappzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207475509053402475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-7447932242585508602010-06-08T15:12:52.664-04:002010-06-08T15:12:52.664-04:00what is with the american public's need for pe...what is with the american public's need for performance art from their politicians? <br />the only way to truly deal with the problems like the one we face now with the oil spill is to put in place sensible regulations to provide even minimal safeguards for offshore drilling. but that won't happen because there's nothing that the voting public loves more than a moronic politician telling them that the free market solves all, and that <em>any</em> regulation, no matter how common sense is the death knell of business; all under the guise of supposedly looking out for the average american. they flash their earnest smile, and tell folks that big business really can be trusted to put the common good above their immediate bottom line, and that all we need is better enforcement of the already too harsh regulations that still remain; and the idiots continue to believe them.<br /><br />the same fools hollering about the wonders of the free market gods, are honestly shocked when lo and behold a company like BP really <em>can't</em> be trusted to police themselves, and we get environmental disasters like this one. then of course it's time to holler for the good for nothing <em>government</em> to come in a clean up the mess, while everyone yells about how they're doing it wrong.<br /><br />but hell, as long as your leaders put on a good act on the tv and <em>appear</em> to be shocked and appalled by this all too predictable cycle, folks are fine. but when it once again comes time to talk about putting in place those common sense regulations to help try and prevent the kind of disaster that they've just been shocked by, they all say..."no way! regulation is bad!"<br /><br />the american public isn't interesting in solving the crisis, they are simply interested in having their politicians put on the same tired play over and over again.<br /><br />personally, i'm waiting for obama to take to the mic and ask all these suddenly concerned americans where their free market god is now? or where the free market's compassion is, while americans look on in horror at the images of environmental destruction? <br />until that happens, yes obama's response will indeed remain a disappointment to me.moja31https://www.blogger.com/profile/03367855590143271752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-58631015213862654132010-06-07T16:49:37.651-04:002010-06-07T16:49:37.651-04:00RM, "But I don't think that troll is a Ch...RM, "But I don't think that troll is a Christian so a church wouldn't be the place to reconcile.

Because the soul feeds on the Spirit and people like Field and other atheists on this blog contribute to blocking souls from God. <br /><br />Have you ever read a post by Field that promotes spirituality? Hell no. He has even run ISEEISEE away and she prayed for his ass.

Wher...Blame Obama, soon as he came out of the gate. Where were you folks during the primaries, there were two, more progressive candidates running for the nomination, than Obama. There were some folks that lean to the right who voted for him thinking he was going to lead from the center and they are now disappointed. Barrack Obama seemed to be fulfilling the eyes of the beholder. It appears for many that there was no critical thinking about truly what they might get with a President Obama. FN was one of the bloggers that was skeptical, which all of the current Obama bashers seem to forget. People who had their eyes open hadn't had their expectations dashed, for they knew that the President could be just ordinary. There were some that voted for what they considered the lessor evil and I would say, some of the complainers didn't vote at all.<br /><br />I know I am accused of being an Obamaholic, because I don't join in the bashing. I don't bash because I didn't have expectations and when all of the Republicans declared war on Obama's policies, I lost any hope that there would be any occasion in which he could make his Presidency transformational. The verbal snipers are out there to disparage any action and the American public is all to eager to believe. As much as John Kennedy was despised in the south, the Russian Missile Crisis didn't bring out a barrage of hateful rhetoric.

I know he took money from AIPAC because he's the only fly in a sea of kosher milk. His hiring practices don't leave much to the imagination. Not one of those so-called ivy league assholes are worth the paper the diploma is printed on. Obama also made a mistake hiring Rahm Emmanuel, a person of dual citizenship to be his chief of staff. Rahm's loyalties are not with the US, but with his "motherland." Obama maybe an historical figure, but look how they emasculated him. He can't say no to AIPAC, Goldman Sachs, or the Fed Reserve. Watch who he hires next for the minerals position or the Fed Reserve committee. It won't be someone who looks like you! And Kagan, isn't her family the same Kagans who are multimillionaires leasing and selling the majority of commercial buildings in NYC? Why hasn't the media brought this out?<br />Obama is too compromised to do a good job. He made a Faustian vow and now the devils are laughing/despising him. It doesn't matter how many of them he hires.trickster206noreply@blogger.com
