i am not blaming obama or the govt at all for the oil spill.but when obama comes out the day the first time when it looked like the golf ball try was working and started taking credit for it was bs.then when it didnt work he then started to rip them up.bp is paying .there was no reason for obama to scold bp about paying out.its the tree hugger leftists fault why the oil companies have to drill in 5000 feet of water.if we were drilling in alaska and this happened it would have been caped in days or hours.i also love the people who hate big oil.we would be in the stone age still if we didnt have it.gas,plastics,rubber ect. half of everything we use everyday comes from oil.i dont think wind and solar can make tires.when i weed wack my lawn maybe the left can make a 4 foot solar panel i can attach to it.although yesterday i saw something pretty cool.a lenex comercial for air conditioning units using solar panals for the home.i would love to have more non oil energy but its way past our lifetime.so we need all the domestic oil we cam get for now.
