We have all heard about rats leaving a sinking ship, but
that wouldn't be unusual at all. No self respecting rat
would want to stay on a sinking ship, and we wouldn't expect
him to. Where I start getting suspicious is when a bunch
of rats start abandoning a perfectly good ship.
That's exactly what happened in the case of the Deepwater
Horizon rig which went down in the gulf. Let's take a closer
look at the rats.
In my opinion, rat #1 would be Tony Hayward-
Wouldn't a person be a rat "IF" he knew ahead of time(1) that
a blowout could be imminent,and instead of warning people,
he just saved his own ass? The chief executive of BP, Tony
Hayward sold 223,288 shares of stock on March 17th -(2)
By doing so he "avoided losing more
than ($614,449) when BP's share price plunged.
I am sure no one would use inside information to save themself at
the expense of others, so we will just call it blind ass luck that
made him, sell his stock.
However, if he does turn out to be a rat instead of just being
extremely lucky, rats run in packs, so we need to look at the rest of them.
Part 2 tomorrow.
Please say it ain't so. Tell me the progressive socialist kenyan is just
lucky like Tony and not a rat.
