Well, when The President did speak to BP CEO Sir Tony Hayward on Wednesday, June 16, 2010...he jawboned Sir Tony to set up a $20 BILLION recovery clam fund for victims of his company's disastrous oil spill.
Convenient how you failed to cite this fact, CL. Further, BP now is saying they will increase the fund to $50 BILLION:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/37806021/ns/disaster_in_the_gulf/">http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/37806021/ns ... _the_gulf/</a><!-- m -->
The oil industry loving radical convervatives in Congress blocked an increase liability BP proposal by progressives of $10 BILLION! And radical conservative, oil-loving industry contribution taking Congressman Joe Barton (he has received more $$$ in campaign donations from the oil-industry in over $1 MILLION) called The President's accomplishment of $20 BILLION for those who have no deep pockets like Sir Tony has as a "shakedown." Barton further "felt sorry" for BP and then "apologized" to BP CEO Tony Hayward before Congress this past Thursday.
So let's hear the full story here, CL. The President through jawboning and persuasion FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE accomplished greater relief than any other President in American history has ever done following an environmental disaster! For which traitorous and treacherous "put Big OIL first" radical conservative types like Congressman Joe Barton APOLOGIZE to a foreign CEO filled with High and Mighty British snearing imperious contempt !!
HEY, why don't the radical conservatives ALSO apologize for the Boston Tea Party, the U S Declartion of Independence and the U S Constitution?? Then kneel down low and humbly beg for pardon for Gen. George Washington's win at YORKTOWN kicking the BRITS OUT of HERE since these radical conservatives are so on bended knee and feeling sooooo sorry for the arrogant, self-serving and ROYAL BRITS ??
Go join them and drink tea and eat biscuits at HIGH NOON, we don't need their sorry, traitorous kowtowing keesters to foreign, greedy potentate CEO's with haughty BRITISH ACCENTS who know nothing other than Millionaire Club yachting here !!!

CL has nothing but sheer antipathy towards the President about the Gulf Oil Spill yet remains totally silent about BP regarding THEIR oil spill.
Totally critical of our own duly legally elected President Obama but gives the foreign potentate, sneering imperious haughty BRITISH Petroleum CEO Sir Tony a total pass.
Par for the cricket course, wouldn't you say, m8s?
CHEERIO !

Sorry, old man, but it's a cricket pitch and par is a golf term.

Well said, types. Now I don't have to add my yawn. As usual, Danno interprets what he sees to fit his purpose. I thought the video pointed out the hyprocrisy in our President's criticism of BP's chairman for attending a yacht race after being relieved of duty, after spending a few weeks in the Gulf, while our President spent the peoples time with frivolities, during that same period of time. Cheerio, and all that stuff!
