BP is responsible for this mess.
I thought conservatives were all for personal responsibility?
Where does this post fit in?
Have you seen some indication that anyone is suggesting that BP not pay for the 'mess.'
No, you have not: what you see is an indication that BP and other industry members are often deprived of the selection of sites by Big Green and their lackeys.
But since you have opened this can of worms, if it turns out to be true that the governor of Louisiana asked for certain assistance in the form of federal aid and OK's to build sand berms and the feds took 17 days to get back with the OK's, I wonder if BP has a leg to stand on as far as mitigation of damages.
The idea that "Big Green" is "forcing" oil companies into the Gulf is ridiculous. BP is there because there is a lot of oil in the Gulf. Full-stop. They'd still be there even if they could drill in ANWR et. al. Why? Because its there!
Not sure why you bothered to include my words, as you neglected to respond to them...
unless your agenda was simply to add what you like...
My words: "often deprived of the selection of sites ..."
