Obama has found his Katrina. His incompetence in dealing with this spill has caused alot of grief. Maybe if he hadn't taken huge contributions from the oil companies then things would be different.

Your Obama swipe is laughable, given the large amounts of oil money that washed over the previous administration. The problems at MMS suggest years and years of a too-cozy relationship with the industry they were supposed to regulate...do you really think that all started under Obama?
Now, does that mean Obama and the Dems are off the hook? No way. The real problem is the money that has flowed to both Reps and Dems over the years from Big Oil.
As I've said often here, the anti-government ideologues need to remember one thing: Government works quite well when its serving the interests of the rich and the corporate elite. It's only when it comes to serving OUR interests that it gets all messy.
