I am afraid that we have all become too busy to care. Too self absorbed to see the doom clouds thickening over our heads. Cnn reports that BP flew in workers for Obama’s big visit and after the president was gone, the workers were ordered to leave the site. Whether this story is true or not matters very little. We are getting the same rigamarole as usual. The president flies in, makes a pretty speech, shakes a few hands, smiles like a climaxing peacock, and then whoosh, off goes our sympathetic president back to the white house to plan for more off shore drilling. I heard rumors that Obama actually has a pool of pure crude oil in the basement of the white house where he and George W. float in their tiny inflatable battleships, pretending to fire missiles and torpedoes at each other. The point is, they don’t care. They don’t care about the environment, the lives’ of those workers who died, or the fact that real people will have to endure fallout from the oil spill for decades. Priorities are severely askew right now, and this is the most recent evidence. The people of Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi, etc should stand up and demand restitution for lost revenues, and damaged property. Each citizen should file civil lawsuits against BP and the Federal Gov. The government no longer works for the citizens… They pretend to have the interests of the common man at heart only during election years. Obama, folks, is sadly the ultimate sheep in wolves attire. George Bush couldn’t speak, he danced well, he made us laugh, but at the end of the day he puffed his chest out and did things his way, and we are paying the price. There are very few chinks in the arrogant armor of Obama. He speaks clearly and eloquently, he is a master at dodging the question in a way that appears as if he is answering it. Obama is the master of not saying anything at all and making it sound great. The people have drank the Cool-aid, now we all must deal with the consequences. More off shore drilling is still being promised to oil companies when the clear cut evidence of why the people should never let it happen floats in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
