Is the BP $20 billion account a ‘slush fund’?

It went into the Reelect Democrat Congress People this November Fund. Its Called “Recovery Summer” With the Scumbags Touring the Country on your dime telling us how great all these Government Jobs are

Barton spoke the truth.

Absolutely he did. As soon as the "deal" was announced the first thought in my head was that of extortion by the sitting usurper in chief.

Barton's statement confirmed it for me.

What a tragedy we have in this country that a sitting "President" extorts money from a company this way, completely over-stepping the Constitutional limits of his office.

I haven't researched it yet, but this has to be an impeachable offense ...

[Pollster1]

Remember when Americans believed in the rule of law? So do I; I miss those days.

[domeika]

You mean like when this video was made? (15 sec commercial first...bear with it, worth the wait)

[ThunderSleeps]

Depends, who gets to control the fund and how it is used and abused?

Will it be handled as well as porkus? As well as the cash for clunkers?

[njmaugbill]

Yes. (one word needed).

[lonestar]

The $20 is to be paid 5 billion a year for 4 years.

Just another corp. Barry wants to ruin!...mad it was BP and not EXXON.

[bert]

....Barton spoke the truth.....

The outcome is that Republicans punish truth while the Rats reward liars

[Scanian]

Since BP agreed to make $3billion quarterly deposits, it looks like most of it will be of more use after November.

The Cosa Nostra has rules about speaking against the Family.

[Dixie Yooper]

Since BP agreed to make $3billion quarterly deposits, it looks like most of it will be of more use after November.

Then most of it will be used by President Biden to by votes for his first election...

Is a dead pelican black and slick?

That's raysiss!

[Quiller]

** Is a dead pelican black and slick? **

That's raysiss!

No, I was talking about an oil-soaked bird, not 0.

Although, I guess I can understand the confusion . . .
