AP: Big Oil Hasn't Learned Lessons Of BP Oil Spill

As an old liberal Democrat who's lived through decades of party politics, I suggest that you consider Democrats and Republicans as working on the same side, as tag relay teams.  Or 'good cop/bad cop'.  One side (Republicans) make brazen frontal assaults on the People, & when the People have had enough for that round, they put Democrats into power because of Democrats' populist rhetoric. 

Once in power, Democrats then consolidate Republicans' gains from previous years, & continue on with Republican policies but renamed, with new advertising campaigns.  They throw the People a few bones, but once Democrats leave office, we learn that those bones really weren't even what the People thought they were.  

Whenever the People get wise to the political shenanigans & all of the different ways they've been tricked & start seeing Democrats as no different than Republicans, Democrats switch the strategy.   They invent new reasons for failing to achieve the People's business -- This current one, because "Democrats are nicer, not as ruthless, not criminal" etc., is custom-tailored to Obama's 'bipartisan cooperation' demeanor, and is smirk-worthy when you realize they're trying to sell that they're inept, unable to achieve what they were put into office to do, and that's "a good thing".   

Whether I'm right or you're right (and I can back up my contentions with so much evidence of Obama's not being any more ethical than Bush-Cheney, beginning with his assertion that the president has the right to k!II American citizens with absolutely no due process and no oversight), how does his government's ineffectiveness work for you, for us?  

Wouldn't you like to get this country back on the right track already?
