Deliberate is number 1, but incompetency is a close second.

We could have saved money by just paying off the dispersant criminals and made soap for a car wash or something out of it.

Just show’s ‘t’go ya there’s a good’ol boys club at work here.

Except they don't use the word 'boys' anymore. It's racist.

“, than to have your UNION friends not have a BIG ENOUGH STASH to be able to make ‘generous’ campaign donations from.”

And that is where they lose me.

Just as a rising tide lifts all boats - a whirlpool will suck them all in.

In the end - the money comes from “somewhere” - and they continue to shut down all sources except for the printing press.

Pretty soon the unions will have no one left to steal from.

If Cheney's pals didn't need to get rid of all that illegal dispersant, all that oil could have been skimmed up immediately as it surfaced and gas would be under $2 by now.

I think you are dreaming about that 'under $2/gallon' part and a little too optimistic. Gas would have gone up regardless, as it does for the 'summer/vacation' months. Matter of fact, the government would probably have added some 'recovery surcharge' to the price for having to remove the water from it, and it would be $3.65/gallon by now.

Perhaps, and who ax'd you to wake me up from my nap?/sarc

I just wanted to make the point that we're in the clutches of a criminal empire that needs taking down.

It's really us or them, and there are more of us!

It's either deliberate or incompetence on a grand scale.

Obama is totally incompetent and incapable of running a sidewalk lemonade stand. But his handlers are conniving and evil (Axelrod and Emmanuel).

Our country is probably too broke to pay for that huge oil skimmer but shouldn’t the money from BP go towards that FIRST!


The US seems to have money for everything else and for everyone else around the globe...and yes, BP should pay for this first.

“who knew him very well as a gay passionate Marxist.”
Is Obama a switch hitter?

Is that why he is empathic to “gays”?


His mentor from age 10 to 18 was Frank Marshal Davis,

an old bisexual in Hawaii who wrote a very detailed bi-sexaul boasting pornographic novel whose sub-title on the cover I cannot type here:

in the book he bragged of picking up a young white girl on the Hawaiian beaches named “Anne”; and sharing her with his white wife;

Frank’s name was disguised in Obama’s book

I wonder why?

and he, Frank, had a 601 page FBI file incl details of his Communist party connections in ....... Chicago !

His most famous “poem” was “March on Red Army”

Gee

wonder if Obama was influenced at all by this guy ..............

Seems to me that O is more than “empathetic” to gays —— he absolutely loves them.........


This is the world we now live in:

THE WHITE HOUSE
