The Obama administration has totally botched the handled of the BP oil spill.\u00a0 This is so bad that all of the networks are finally starting to challenge the administration.\u00a0 This is likely to be the lead story on all the networks this evening.\u00a0 Obama did a nice job reading his TelePrompTer and angrily pointing his finger at BP and all the other evil oil companies.\u00a0 However, he did nothing to actually fix the problem.\u00a0 Now we are more than 30 days past the event, oil is starting to pollute our shores and the Obama administration has no answers, has no solutions and can\u2019t even give consistent answers to the most important question:\u00a0 \u201cWho, exactly, is in charge?\u201d\u00a0 They don\u2019t even know where to start looking for a solution.<\/p>\n

This would have been handled very differently by the Bush administration for one simple reason.\u00a0 The Bush administration had Dick Cheney.\u00a0 Dick Cheney was the former CEO of Haliburton, and you can bet your bottom dollar that George Bush would have called him on day one and asked him to find out what was going on.\u00a0 It would not have taken someone like Cheney long to figure out what was going on and to get in contact with people who would know how to deal with it.\u00a0 It also wouldn\u2019t have taken long for him to get authorization from George Bush to do whatever it took to fix the problem.\u00a0 (Of course regardless of what Bush did the msm would have accused him of incompetence)<\/p>\n

This is the real problem with the Obama administration.\u00a0 They don\u2019t have a Dick Cheney.\u00a0 They don\u2019t have anybody<\/strong> in their administration with experience at solving real world problems.\u00a0\u00a0 None of the cabinet members, with the possible exception of Secretary of Defense Gates, demonstrates any leadership skill at all.\u00a0 Gates is a hard core CIA and military guy, but even he has no real world experience in handing this type of problem.\u00a0 In addition, he doesn\u2019t appear to be heavily involved.\u00a0 \u00a0Instead, they\u2019ve got a bunch of politically correct lawyers frothing at the bit over who they can sue.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even if you cut them some slack for doing nothing for eight days, by April 29, 2010 it was obvious that this situation was a mega disaster.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If Obama had a lick of sense, which he doesn\u2019t, he would call Dick Cheney and beg for help.\u00a0 After giving him an earful, Cheney probably would reluctantly accept the assignment.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0After all Dick Cheney, unlike Obama, has a long record of putting the country first.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At this point, it is very unlikely that anyone who really understands this stuff is going to volunteer for the job.\u00a0 The person who takes on this puppy is likely to be faced with a raging out of control Rahm Emmanuel demanding the impossible while failing to grasp the enormity of the challenge.\u00a0 In all fairness, it is hard to bribe your way out of an oil spill.\u00a0 In addition, the odds are pretty high that anyone involved is going to get more blame than gratitude.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Obama administration needs a Cheney.\u00a0 Instead they have replaced him with a \u201cChain (Cheney)\u00a0of Fools.\u201d<\/p>\n
