Rush Limbaugh covered this oily ground, er water, Friday afternoon, but while the Gulf of Mexico oil spill kept oozing petroleum off of America's southern coast, President Obama was doing nothing.Kind of like what the liberals were accusing his predecessor doing after Hurricane Katrina clobbered the same region five years ago.
Doug Ross has an excellent graphic presentation of Obama's inaction when action was needed.

If we really want to have a "free market" we are going to have to stop looking to the federal government to solve man made disasters like the BP oil spill.
ReplyDeleteWe have got to start holding businesses accountable for their own mistakes
BP should be 100% accountable for the cleanup and mitigation for this mess. That's Federal Law.
Our government should provide help where it can...as long as the bill get's picked up by BP and not the taxpayer.
Any long term impacts should be paid for by BP. No taxpayer funded bailouts this time.
It's funny that whenever business screw up, people want the government to get involved...after the fact.
Getting involved BEFORE a disaster with rules and regulations is considered a restraint on "free markets"
