Politicians are going to take heat regardless. To say Obama is not doing anything is as ridiculous as the accusations against Bush. Nowadays one side or the other will bash the white house regardless of the actions taken. I also disagree that they haven't said so:
Quote:
Were in the early stages of doing that, and we do not have a comprehensive understanding as of yet of where that oil is, Jane Lubchenco, the NOAA administrator, told Congress on Wednesday. But we are devoting all possible resources to understanding where the oil is and what its impact might be.
The administration has mounted a huge response to the spill, deploying 1,105 vessels to try to skim oil, burn it and block it from shorelines.

Yes this is a NOAA official, but my point is that all they can say is we are devoting all possible resources, critics will simply say that's not enough and so on and so on.
Do you know for a fact that NASA engineers are not being pulled over to that problem, or that other military deep sea ships aren't being brought over, I doubt it.
You are the opposite side of impatience as JTF. JTF claims BP isn't doing what he wants, but he doesn't have a clue, and likewise, you want to moan about the government's lack of success, and you can't say what they are really doing.
If any person who witnesses and has responsibility toward ending this leak isn't doing everything that can possibly be done, then that truth will come out, but for now, backseat driving just proclaims a frickin' agenda!
