Congressman Ron Paul spoke to CNBC today about how he feels President Obama is taking too much of the blame for the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
0:30 Its unfair to blame Obama for an oil company accident, similar to blaming Bush for everything in terms of Katrina; this creates a culture where government is responsible for everything.
2:05 If you had proper property rights instead of government control, this situation would have been improved.
2:50 There shouldn't be any limits on the legal liabilities for BP.
4:10 Don't end deepwater drilling, but make it more costly, make the conditions much different.
We were too busy here watching the Swiss upset Spain.

Just 10 days prior to the explosion, the Obama administrations regulators gave the oil rig a pass, and last year the Obama administration granted BP a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) exemption for its drilling operation.

No one here agrees with that statement.
