Obama passing the buck?

Partisan? Hell son I've voted for more Republicans then you have so don't lay that "You're a partisan" crap on me just because you're so laughably wrong on this debate.

First this isn't a natural disaster it's a man made one. Second, your obsolving BP of their responsibility for this disaster out of pure partisanship. Third, were it not for the Federal response BP would still be sitting on it's ass and thinking about how to protect their profits. Fourthly the Federal Katrina response or lack their of and it's catastrophic consequences were so socially stratified that the racial implications for Bush and his administration were certainly justified and lastly, yes, Oncie has owned your ass on this topic. You're making a fool of your self.

What is this special "power" you claim I have?

Can I fly?

Can I see through solid objects?

Maybe I can shoot laserbeams out my eyes?

Wait...I know...I GOT IT!

My special power is that I can get Yurtie, USF and other idiots to whine over and over about how butt hurt getting neg repped makes them feel!

And for some reason, you continue to equate laughing AT YOU, with being butt hurt.
If anyone here is butt hurt it's you; because anything having to support that bulk is probably crying out in pain. :cof1:

hey, no skin off my nose.

You've shown everyone over and over that you are incapable of admitting the truth when confronted with it, so why should they believe this latest lame attempt at face saving?

You whine because you want ALL the power and you can't STAND that someone you don't like has a bit of power all his own.

You - Who says peope are upset
Me - Who says we're laughing at you

Obama to do everything `humanly possible' on spill


Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said any comparison between the ruptured BP oil well and Katrina was "a total mischaracterization" and that the government has taken an "all hands on deck" approach.

Always looking for the elusive gotcha (and always failing).

Guess what? As has been stated, 16 agencies were on this basically from day 1. Show me where the admin has failed, as I have shown you repeated examples of where Bush & FEMA failed, and admitted their failures.

Ha ha. It took bush FIVE days after Blanco declared the state of emergency before he flew over the area. In the meantime: BUSH SHARES BIRTHDAY CAKE PHOTO-OP WITH SEN.

Wow - that article is from TODAY. Talk about desperate, Yurtsie. Another false comparison.

You must be desperately searching google right now - frantic, trying to find some way you can compare it to Bush's incompetence on Katrina.

This whole thing is speaking volumes about your mindset. It's really kind of entertaining...
 
However, the spill has continued to surge toward disastrous proportions, and experts have warned of a possible nightmare scenario. Critical questions linger: Who created the conditions that caused the gusher? Did BP and the government react robustly enough in its early days? And, most important, how can it be stopped before the damage gets worse?

There is growing criticism that the government and oil company BP PLC should have done more to stave off the disaster, which has cast a pall over the region's economy and fragile environment.

Googling like mad; I love it when people form a conclusion first, and they try desperately to find something on google to support it. Kind of putting the cart before the horse, as they say...
 
lol....apparently our resident hack obama apologist onceler has never heard of Yahoo News and thinks someone must have to "google" to get this information

No, the incompetence is with this administration. JHC, it took Janet Napolitano one week to come to the conclusion that this was of national significance.

Resident hack? I'm not the one who is so consumed by hatred for Obama that I have to force some weird, inappropriate comparison to Katrina.

Show me the actual failures. List where this admin has been lacking, and where their lack of response exacerbated the situation.
