After 60 days the Obama State Department is still “considering” which countries to accept help from.
Unbelievable.

You people.
First its: Free Market this and that, end of regulation over here and over there. No oversight needed, let the businesses be. Small government forever xD
Then a crisis hits in which a corporation is proven to be irresponsible, money driven, and apathetic: OH MY GOD! OBAMA WHY DONT YOU PUT ON THE SNORKLE AND GO FIX THE HOLE!111!!!
Why don't you completely take over the situation at hand.
Why don't you commandeer ships and handle the crisis with the full power of the BIG BIG BIG federal government.
Hypocrites.

He's talking about financial responsibility. He's bringing the leaders of BP into congress for cross examinations. He's talking about "kicking ass" on national television. But is he DOING anything about it? No.
He's not behaving like a president - he's behaving like a LAWYER.
He's actually behaving like a socialist. He's doing what he knows best: take someone's money and give it to someone else (after it goes through him first, of course).
And the "I'm gonna kick your ass and take your money" is the behavior of a schoolyard bully, nothing more.
