It turns out that even if the whole Gulf of Mexico turns into a frying pan of bubbly steamy oil, this biblical catastrophe is going to have NO impact on Obama's approval numbers, it is going to be of no consequence for 2012, and hence, he's gonna do crap about it.
Where is the GOP and its rabid, irrational opposition? -Drilling, baby, drilling and accusing Obama of being too tough with BP!
Alas, I expected, just because of cheap electoral politics, to hear at least one Republican say: 'the President is doing nothing because he is a rich lawyer from Chicago, an incurable elitist, and he does not care about people down South'. But no. The GOP is offering no leverage by numbers or polling.
Everything and everyone is conspiring to bring the oil right to our shores.
And what are we gonna do about it? -Vote Palin 2012.
For all the marketing re: "green" this and "green" that, the country's *mad* silent on this disaster, isn't it? We absolutely do not want to change our society to accommodate the earth. And no, Republicans won't touch Obama on this... except to say, as Paul said, that Obama's being "un-American" for criticizing a business. Since when our natural rights and freedoms derived from corporations, I haven't a clue.
