i love how no one in this thread is talking about his meeting with BP where he forced them to create a 20 Billion dollar fund in an escrow account to make sure they don't weasel out of this like Exxon did in Valdez and Chevron did in Ecuador.

That was a powerful move and quite different from the dick sucking of energy companies that took place in the last administration.







That's because it was BP's idea. It's a lot less costly than actual litigation and a good PR move. Obama, being the political opportunist he is, just took credit, BP, already on thin ice, wouldn't contradict him. Ask yourself this, did Obama give back the campaign money he received from BP yet? I bet even you the know the answer to that one.
