Much has been said about the large oil spill in the Gulf. Much has been said, except by the mainstream media about the Obama administration and their handling of the disaster.
It seems that the right hand of the administration doesn't know what the left hand has been doing. As has happened many times, the EPA has become involved and made matters worse. Now they say they cannot build a berm, a large wall usually made out of sand or other natural material, until an environmental impact study has been done. They also say the oil dissipation chemicals cannot be used because it can cause environmental damage. Like millions of gallons of oil cannot?
In the first days of the disaster, Obama sent lawyers to the scene instead of equipment. People are criticizing BP and rightfully so, but has someone come up with a workable solution to the disaster? Nope.
Would have the media given George Bush the same pass they are giving Obama? Hahahaha, of course not.
The other problem I have with the media and Obama's administration is that 11 people died in this disaster. That has been missing in the media reports and all the government responses. The wildlife that has been damaged and the beaches will come back. these employees will not. Wives lost husband and children have lost fathers and that has been missing in these reports and to me, that is what is the most important.
The media and the government have forgotten what was the worst part of the disaster- 11 men dying on the job and that should also be a main focus on the investigation.
