If I'm correct didn't the goverment give warning to people to leave the area before the storm ever hit. To me it sounds like the liberals expected better from Bush but they do not expect much of nothing from Obama. By the way that leavy which broke was man made.

I'm also not blaming Obama for this mess but I am blaming him for not providing additional help and minds to figure out how to stop this pipe from leaking. My god we can go into space and repair stuff but the goverment does not have the minds to figure this out. I don't care who comes up with the solution we just need the best minds and resources working on this.
You keep saying Obama hasn't provided support, but you fail to say what support he needs to provide that wasn't there on day one. From the very start the administration was on top of this based on the available information. The only expert minds are the ones that work for BP. The federal government aren't experts on oil wells and dealing with leaks. Apparently neither is BP at this point.

I agree with you that I don't care who gets credit or how it's fixed, but it needed to happen last month as fas I'm concerned.
