And Obama's response, in which no one even knew who was in charge (BP or the Coast Guard) did better? Oh please oh please ask me to show how much money they wasted and how many bullshit political games were played. I will have to start looking for the pics of people "cleaning up the oil" in brand new shiny white boots when Obama came in for a visit and then got bused back out literally within hours of Obama leaving.
Oooh, how about the federal regulators getting hookers and blow from the people they were regulating? Thousands upon thousands of workers doing jack shit but walking around and fucking off day after day (but it looked really good for photo ops and 45 sec commercials)? The CG recalling vessels that Louisiana built themselves to suck oil out of the marshes because the CG forgot to check to make sure they had enough life jackets on them (instead of maybe sending a small fast boat out to check them at sea)? The emergency response that BP had previously presented to the Feds? Refusing resources that would have actually made a difference?
You literally could not dream of a more fucked up uncoordinated response then what happened but sand berms that would have been there to rebuild our eroding coast line and would have been a buffer to both the oil AND hurricanes had the Feds not been fucking Louisiana out of royalty sharing that it deserves (and almost every other state gets) is your only point?
Wow, could you possibly have flung more poo in random directions? Unless of course you have credible evidence of this gross Federal mismanagement.
The only party responsible for the oil spill is BP.
As for the cleanup...this had never happened before, so the response, by whoever, was going to be difficult and failure prone.
