Gulf Oil Spill: BP's Poor Record So Far Dulls Hope For Future

What we have here is a corrupt government, including Obama, which intends to continue the status quo of offshore drilling.



It's not because we have to, that there aren't alternatives. It's because our political system is controlled by big money interests that make huge profits from oil.



It makes their argument, that transitioning to wind and solar is too expensive, abzurd.



The oil companies, BP included, are all positioned to make more obscene profits from the (Obama)-Kerry-Lieberman-Graham-energy bill, which is all nuclear, coal, gas and oil. There's chump change in it for green sustainables.



This is one of those moments in history which exposes real greatness. If it's there. If Obama had that ability, had he the vision & the talent, he would have recognized the opportunity in this crisis, embraced this event as the vehicle to get us off of oil. He would've turned his back on his Corporate Masters, trusted that the People had his back, & led us to the only future possible for human survival: Green, clean, sustainable. He could have solved every problem that's bogging him (& us) down, from soup to nuts (economy to wars).



But Obama's not the one.
