So the White House was just sitting by idly and didn't offer ANY ideas? They didn't send anyone to the gulf region? No input from the president --- at all? You sure you got your facts straight on this?

And you know this is Obama's second visit to the area since the incident happened, right? I dunno, should the White House just relocate to the gulf and set up a 24/7 operation?

You still haven't said, exactly, what you want the president to do?
