 BP's Egregious willful OSHA violations - 760 between June 2007 through 2010

Rest of the industry - 1 for the same period!

November.. ;) ..THAT will tell us the truth....IF demcrats stay in control, then I would agree with your "poll"...

but, IF, and when the Repubs regain control, then I would say that Obama screwed the pooch....and the Tea Parties was exactly what we said it was, which is Americans tired of what is now currently in Washington...and it's policies.

The better question is WHY they weren't doing their jobs!  :yes:

And the answer to that has been further enabled by the SCOTUS decision granting "individual" rights to corporations. The money, the gifts, the drugs, the parties, the tickets to events; all of that purchases a big ol rubber stamp with which to bypass the remediation process. . .  :mad:

it sounds like gov corruption to me....if they are being paid off, then they need to go to jail.....this is NOT just a dem /  repub problem ... it is a Washington problem....

  It's the Republican controlled government, George W.'s problem and we all are going to have to pay for the sonuvabitch's fraud and corruption.

It may very well be November before the leak is stopped and one thing is for sure; it won't get stopped because of anything a republican or democrat did. . . :rolleyes:

I am afraid you may be right about November. As to republicans or democrats doing anything to stop the "leak", that will only happen if whoever actually comes up with something that works proclaims himself or herself to be one or the other.

  Your right, The Republicans, Democrats and the government  can't fix the leak.  The only thing they can do is clean up the mess..  The reason why we can't fix the leak.  We don't have anything to fix it with.  BP lied to us and we believed them.  This should never happen again.

  But John Boner (Bohner) said yesterday at an news conference, that BP and the taxpayers should pay to get the problem fixed. I wonder who's pocket he's in.
