Subject: RE: BS: US bigots attack British Company (oil spill)
I think the number of rounds of golf played by Barack Obama was seven.

BP apologist GregF? No not apologist, I have always said that BP are the responsible parties because of their position as the Operator. What you lot have done is to confuse responsibility for something with fault. Instead of concentrating on solving the problem of the leak which BP HAVE DONE, and DID DO, by the way, your Government went into hyperdrive on the blame game. Barack Obama's speciality "Grandstanding" to the electorate, he is a man of great show and no substance, who puts himself and his public image before everything else.

What failed onboard Deepwater Horizon was not the singular fault of BP. If you are aportioning blame then the net gets cast much wider and includes Halliburton, Transocean, posibly Cameron and definitely the US Regulatory Authorities. The legal wrangling over this will take years and make a lot of lawyers very wealthy.
