B. Hussein recieved most BP cash in last 20 years

[Banned]

He received more than any other politician in the last 20 years from BP. So every time you hear BP Oil, think of how W. and Cheney were tied to Haliburton. I am not defending the last Republocrat in the White House, just pointing out that all of them are crooks.

I am liking how he is stabbing the people who got him elected in the back. I wonder what he will do come campaign time? He will probably be kissing their asses, of course we all know that it won't work. This Pres is a one term Pres for sure.

[onegunguitar]

I've said it all along-they're all a bunch of lying crooks.

[tornandfrayed]

I guess if I ran for office and people donated money I probably would not take it...

Guess that is why I am not in office!

Good Job keeping the world safe guys! I feel better knowing you are watching out for us!

I guess we'll have to start calling him "Slick Barry"

LOL, now that there is funny.

This is not!

Obama's Interior Department exempted BP Oil from an environmental impact study LAST YEAR.

I was inferring both

[songsmith]

Yeah, and guess what? Obawma actually CAUSED the oil spill! He broke a valve off, and people hollered, "Don't do that Mr. President!" and he just kept breaking it. It's true. I have e-mails.
Why isn't anyone talking about how 2 years ago, we paid $4.25 a gallon for gas for no real reason, and the oil industry said they needed that $11 billion a quarter for R&D and safety improvements. They collected their $20 billion annual Bush tax break, too. They must have given that all to Obama, I guess. DRILL, BABY, DRILL, WOOOOOOO!!!! --->JMS

They are all fuckups... (politicians) some care more then others...

At least we have each other...

Would you like some cheese with your whine?

[songsmith]

Funny how nobody else in media is blathering on about how the BP oilspill is Obama's fault. Nobody else is calling it his Katrina, but then Faux didn't even call Katrina Bush's Katrina.
Same old Rockpage. The talkshow fan club, rehashing what they heard on Beck. --->JMS

Neither the original link showing BP Oil Barack getting more campaign money from BP, nor the second link showing that BP Oil Barack letting BP out of an environmental impact study last year, were obtained from anywhere near Fox or any other TV news show. The sources are the Politico and the Washington Post, both left leaning news sources.

O god o spin, wrong again. Does not matter to him anyway, he will be claiming some lunch eating fantasy any post now.

Dude, I quit clicking on your links long ago.--->JMS

Taking money from BP or anyone else does not mean they are joined at the hip. Nor does it mean the president knows everything about everything going on.

On the other hand, Haliburton built the infrastructure for this BP drilling platform. Is it their fault ? No. Just sayin'.

Bear in mind that Halliburton had contracts for Iraq for Billions of dollars BEFORE THERE WAS A WAR. That IS Chaney and Haliburton joined at the hip.

For you states rights guys. Is this oil spilling onto states the states' responsibility to clean up ?

So why do you make an idiot statement that this thread is the result of listening to Beck? You did not even have to open the links, the words "politico" and "washingtonpost" were in the titles of the links.

This thread has two links from liberal media sources, but some brainiac goes and blames Fox News.

I wonder who is being close minded to some facts?

Don't confuse the ole god o spin with some facts.

1) Yes, less than one month before hostilities began, Halliburton signed a no-bid emergency contract to take care of the expected, but as yet unknown oil infrastructure problems that would occur if Hussein inflicted a scorched-earth policy.

This is called prudent war planning--the Pentagon would be remiss if they didn't plan for oil fire contingencies. There was no bid because there was as yet nothing to bid on. Since it was for a "compelling emergency", they could not wait to assess the damage and then go through the required 90 day bidding process.

Why was Halliburton selected? It had a lot to do with Cheney, but I challenge you to name another company that could drop into a war zone and contain oil fires of any undetermined magnitude and scope.

2) Its BP's (and their subcontractor's) responsibility to clean up. This $75M cap is bullshit. They should be made to pay all costs in the cleanup.

This spill should be BP's responsibility, though I think the Feds and the states will end up footing part of the bill. Some of you might know this, did Exxon pay for all of the clean up of the Valdez oil spill??

I researched this a little and there are estimates of $2.5 up to $7 Billion for the Exxon Valdez cleanup. I could not find if our tax dollars had to be used.

BP Oil, one of B. Hussein's favorite places to look for campaign funding, made $17 to $24 Billion in profits last year. Plenty enough for them to cover it all, unless BP Barry hits them up for too much reelection money.

[Flaw]

This is really bad! Obama used donated money for a campaign?!?! God what a crook, he should of used it for the strip clubs like the true Americans would so desire their donations to go to.

Oh yeah BP donated money to the company i work for some years back, guess i should turn in my two week notice then.


grow up.

[Naga]

Any which way you slice it, we're handing out too much money to too many people, and not enough to ourselves... Especially since no one else is handing enough money to us. We, the people, deserve some compensation for our broken backs and manacles!

Are you still here?

I don't blame Faux for the spill, that's the almighty Oil Industy's fault, not Obama's, as you seem to want to intimate. I blame Faux for the fringers like yourself ignoring who is at fault, because nobody makes a giant leap like that without the help of their propaganda source.

So you never ever criticized Bush and Cheney's Haliburton connection at all over their 8 year reign?

My point for those of you who cannot think beyond the obvious is this: W and Cheney were cricified for their connection to Haliburton, rightly or wrongly. Now Obama says he is the post partisan president, but when evidence that BP Oil gave more money to him that ANY other politician over the last 20 years, no media source seems interested enough to even mention this.

Johnny, unlike you who get every thought from leftist liberals, I alone came up with this connection. The Politico (favorite of MSNBC) posted the article about the political money and the Washington Post (owned by the NY Times, queen of leftist yellow journalism) printed an article about the Interior Dept. waving BP from an environmental study just last year.

No where on any TV news show or radio show did I find these articles. No where did I hear this idea. It is mine. If it is fair to link W and Cheney to Haliburton, it is equally fair to link B. Hussein to BP Oil and their slick.

johnny, I know independent thought is a hard concept for you. But try.

Nope i never did. I criticized him for being a president to start two unnecessary wars, and throwing us trillions of dollars in debt. I also am criticized the media and those who are retarded enough to believe that Obama has spent more then the cost of two wars. Another thing, its okay to send kids to die, but its not okay for all children to be offered health insurance, where do i sign up for this. Maybe its my generation and my independent thought, as i watch kids i graduated with going off to war to piss off terrorists, and potential terrorist and call it home security. That is the dumbest foreign policy i have ever heard of. Very smart, lets piss people who will kill them selves to take out a few families who haven't done anything to anyone, and while all this is going on we Americans are bitching about a few dollars taken from our wallets. Cant imagine why other countries hate us.
This is what i'm against! I am against STUPIDITY!

Also i'm not a liberal, I just don't agree with war and i am a humanitarian.

I know independent thought is a hard concept for you. But try.

Please take your own advice! Also maybe pick up a guitar or another instrument and find a new hobby then sit on here and pick apart something that you either read on the internet or another form of controlled media
