Is it just me?
I can see and feel incompetence all around us. Maybe some of the problem is semantics. Maybe not.
BP wants to try to "top kill" to seal the leaking oil well. While Obama and the congress want to "bottom kill" the rest of the country.
I watched officials from Louisiana and parishes near New Orleans complain that nothing is getting done, in regards to the BP oil spill disaster. Their hands are tied. Everyone is lying, The government, BP, Department of the Interior, lawyers. Lies, Lies, Lies. No one is in charge. Not BP, not the Government, not Louisiana , not the Coast Guard, not the parishes, not the fishermen, not the lawyers.
I watched James Carville and his wife Mary Matalin, both from Louisiana, who appear on CNN, complain and showed their frustration as they observed the oil that had reached the shore. Blame BP. Not Obama. These two look at their state everyday. It must be tough to see nothing getting done.
Gov. Bobby Jindal was there also. He was frustrated also.
The officials from Louisiana should have started the oil clear up themselves. Before it ever reached the
freshwater wetlands of Louisiana's southeastern tip. Then they could have given BP the bill for the clean up.But they did nothing - incompetent. They helped ruin their own wet lands. Just like Katrina, Louisiana waited for the federal government and FEMA, to take care of the emergency, but it took too long. And New Orleans was pretty much ruined because nothing was done from the beginning of the storm.
What a pathetic press conference.
The President cares. Sure he does. He gave a press conference today, first press in months, but he cares. He cares about Barbra Boxer too. He claims from day one of the oil spill he was on top of it. Is he in charge? or is BO just a figure head of the government. Does he have any leadership qualities at all? This happened on his watch. I hope he knows that. Of course, Obama will blame George Bush for this entire mess if given the chance.
Look at this President and his WH, all incompetent. Not a leader. Do they really think we will accept all their shenanigans?
Here is an abridged career path of BO. Educated, community organizer, Senator, President. He did well for the first two. Terrible for the last two -incompetent.
Look at the Congress, all incompetent. They held hearings on the spill. They condemned BP officials, criticized their safety record. They want to change the law, make it tough on oil drilling, yes they are real tough. They are tough - after there is an explosion and a fire, people get killed, an oil rig sinks to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico and the biggest oil spill ever occurs. Yes, like Obama they are tough. And they are incompetent.
The main stream media is incompetent too. How about MSNBC Here is the best of the worst. Hardball with Chris Matthews , Ed Shultz, Keith Obermann, Rachel Maddow. Pathetic, disgraceful, common, losers. They do nothing well. They know nothing - except how to bash Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann and all Republicans. They love big government and big spending. They love Obama. Obama can do not wrong - ever.
Incompetence: Last example.
All these busy people - doing nothing, and getting nothing done. But I bet the lawyers are getting things done. Getting ready and filing thousands of law suits and claims. Yes the lawyers are real busy, busy counting the money they will make off of BP.
