President BlackBarry.
This president sure plays golf a lot. Hmm ... a lot more than Bush did, it seems. And he vacations more than Bush did, it seems.
“The time line on an AWOL president’s handling of the gulf oil Spill
Media fail repeatedly to mention the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 giving POTUS complete responsibility for immediate action in cleaning up an oil spill. Once again Barack Hussein Obama is derelict in his duty.
OPA, among other things, amended Section 311 of the federal Clean Water Act. Section 311 now provides in part that:
(A) If a discharge, or a substantial threat of a discharge, of oil or a hazardous substance from a vessel, offshore facility, or onshore facility is of such a size or character as to be a substantial threat to the public health or welfare of the United States (including but not limited to fish, shellfish, wildlife, other natural resources, and the public and private beaches and shorelines of the United States), the President shall direct all Federal, State, and private actions to remove the discharge or to mitigate or prevent the threat of the discharge.
(B) In carrying out this paragraph, the President may, without regard to any other provision of law governing contracting procedures or employment of personnel by the Federal Government
(i) remove or arrange for the removal of the discharge, or mitigate or prevent the substantial threat of the discharge; and
(ii) remove and, if necessary, destroy a vessel discharging, or threatening to discharge, by whatever means are available.”

“This makes all those golf outings, sports-team photo ops, and celebrity jams with Paul McCartney over the past six weeks feel extra special, doesn’t it?
President Obama and his team were briefed from the outset that the blowout at the Deepwater Horizons rig was epic in scope and would not be fixable for a long, long time.
The real disgrace here is why, if he really did know right away that this was the oil equivalent of an asteroid strike, he didn’t scramble some sort of all-hands-on-deck emergency operation to protect the coastline.”

“Former FEMA Director Michael Brown argues it is the federal government’s responsibility to take charge of the environmental cleanup from the oil spill.
Brown: Lets be very clear. There are 2 disasters going on here. One is the spill itself, the leak on the gulf floor. Thats a BP responsiblity...
The 2nd disaster, which is the responsibility of the federal government is the environmental problem we have resulting from the spill itself, and I have yet to be amazed, I dont know why the media is talking about this...
It is under our environmental laws, the oil spill cleanup act, the coast guard duties, it is the duty of the federal government, to clean up that spill that is getting to the to marshes and the beaches, and thats is just where they have been absent.”
