It is obvious that Obongoid and his minions have completely dropped the ball regarding the BP spill. He has been blasted by his former apostles on the left as vehemently as those on the right.
So what kind of half assed excuses will this FAILURE of a leader come up with tonight?
Here is a little tid bit to hold you over until tonight's teleprompter fueled speech:
In politics, 2 things matter - perception and effective policy. President Obama has failed in both.
The Administration claimed to be on top of this since day one, but the reality is that the President didnt personally address the issue for many days until the public outcry was too loud to ignore.
While the President has had plenty of time in the last 50 days to play golf, host glitzy celebrity events at the White House and go on vacation - hes only managed a few self-serving photo-op stops in the Gulf.
The President blasts the BP CEO, but hasnt even spoken to him - he delivers blustery comments about kicking someones a** - while trying to cover his own his own rear.
He has rebuffed efforts and ideas by the local governors and by private sector entities. Instead, the Presidents unwillingness to lead or get out of the way has cost us dearly.
In times of crisis, leaders lead and politicians make speeches. President Obama has made a lot of speeches.
