Oil Commission Baffled By Lowball Estimates; Suspects They Slowed Response

You have absolutely no idea of what you're talking about.  

Even Obama and Thad Allen contradict you, and say that the US was in charge and calling the shots.

It really is amazing what you 0bamab0ts pull out of your @$$ to try to defend behavior that, had it been done under Bush's watch, you would have condemned.  

You believe and contend that the lease requires BP's calling the shots, and should the US take over, it absolves BP of responsibility, which is simply not true.  Nor has it ever come out of the mouth of Obama, Thad Allen, Ken Salazar, or anyone else in government.  But it hasn't stopped anonymous commenters around the internet who  have been spreading that disinformation since the explosion.   The law does not require (not in these oil & gas leases or any kind of contract) that the government's (or anyone's) hands be tied and must just stand around or risk the assignment of legal liability while BP's (or a BP-like party) responds to the disaster any way it wants.

Even if this weren't a crime scene (11 people were k!lled due to negligence & fraud that we know about), it was an ongoing & continuing disaster.  It wasn't like an earthquake, where once the shaking is over, the government steps in to repair & rebuild.  This was an earthquake that continued for months, with no end in sight.

By the way, nobody in the government, not Obama, not Thad Allen, not Ken Salazar, nobody whatsoever in the government has ever made the claim you're making about the terms of the oil & gas leases.  They didn't because it's not true.  That's not the law for any of those leases.  That's wholly a creation of 0bamab0ts working backwards, trying to defend Obama's failure to respond adequately.  

0bamab0ts are no better than Bushies.
