What the hell does Katrina have to do with this oil spill?
He's not comparing Katrina to the oil spill. He's comparing partisan responses.
So, Yurt - are you complaining that Dems aren't blaming this on Obama?
I still don't think I understand your point.

The Dems blamed Bush for everything that went wrong. It was reflexive.

bush was heavily criticized for a mere 3 days, called a racist, but the governor and mayor, barely a whisper of complaint....how many days has it been here and nothing but praise from the left for the way obama is handling it? if this was still bush, i guarantee each and every one of you would be heavily criticizing him, pointing out his ties to big oil etc....
and really, this thread makes no sense
Why shouldn't British petroleum pay?
Actually he was making it clear that the government will help but BP must foot the bill. It's always good to be clear about these things.Why shouldn't British petroleum pay?
They should pay. They are paying. I have seen nothing from BP saying that they would not pay for the clean up. In fact, Obama is just grandstanding - because BP never said it was not going to pay for the clean up and they were not 'forced' by the White House to pay up. Political point scoring from a disaster.... my, my, my, that's change we can believe in. Yep, Obama is certainly 'changing the way Washington does business'.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Obama administration says the cost of cleaning up a giant oil spill off the Gulf of Mexico will fall on BP PLC, the company that operated the rig.
White House spokesman Nick Shapiro says President Barack Obama has directed his administration to aggressively confront the oil spill. The military is working to determine how its array of aircraft, ships and equipment might be able to assist the cleanup operation.

Why does Obama hate big business?
I think that trying to make political hay over this tragic accident is foolish.
This isn't a liberal or conservative disaster, folks.
This is EVERYBODY's disaster.
Jesus boys, get a clue.
Well, the President will make political points over this disaster if the agencies involved do a good job. Just the contrast from the last administrations handling of Katrina wil insure that.

It was BP's oil rig that blew up and they will pay for the damage and clean up. Exon did the same for their tanker.
Haven't heard anywhere that they are asking for anyones help.
Its a terrible tragedy that cost many lives and it will be used as a political football for all those against America drilling its own oil. Those with a green agenda will demonize it as well.
Thats politics folks. LOL
