President Obama accepted full responsibility for the BP oil spill, by pointing his finger at everyone else and threatening to hold them accountable.\u00a0 What is pathetic is that so many members of the main stream media bought it.\u00a0 I almost puke when people say:\u00a0 \u201cAt least we finally have a President that accepts responsibility.\u201d\u00a0 Really!\u00a0 Threatening to hold other people accountable is not exactly my definition of accepting responsibility.\u00a0 When, exactly, has Obama ever admitted error?\u00a0 If this wasn\u2019t so awful, it would be hysterical.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This reminds me of General Braxton Bragg.\u00a0 The General was notorious for a very bad temper.\u00a0 He had a reputation of not getting along with anyone.\u00a0 Since he was in charge of a small frontier base, he acted as both Quartermaster and Commanding Officer.\u00a0 As Commanding Officer, he demanded that the Quartermaster prove him with essential supplies.\u00a0 As Quartermaster, he denied the request as being excessive.\u00a0 Then, as Commanding Officer, he filed a complaint against the Quartermaster.\u00a0 Finally, in desperation, his Commanding General wrote him that he had managed to get into some kind of quarrel with everyone in the U.S. Army, and now was even \u00a0quarreling with himself.<\/p>\n
This is remarkably similar to the Obama administration\u2019s game plan for handling the BP oil spill.\u00a0 There is no one in the administration with any leadership ability and certainly no one with actual experience.\u00a0 They are not out of ideas, they never had any ideas.\u00a0 So, they must rely on BP to do everything, and they have no clue as to how to deal with this problem.\u00a0 \u00a0So, they will demand action by BP and then complain that whatever action is taken is inadequate.\u00a0 At the same time, they will ask the FBI to conduct a full scale criminal investigation of BP.\u00a0 In the meantime, the leak goes on.\u00a0 Sadly, some people in the main stream media really think this is leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
