When people were pissed and protested Big Oil making $billions in profits?
There were calls for investigations and to put people in jail and how unethical it was.
This, is of course, during the Bush administration.
While, this is a few months old, I just heard about it now because it was so quiet.
Exxon Mobil Oil made a profit of $9,500,000,000 for the first quarter of 2013.

Shell Oil made $8,740,000,000 http://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/05/02/shell-reports-lower-first-quarter-profit-on-lower-oil-prices-flat-production/
B P's profits were $4,200,000,000 http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/01/business/global/bps-4-2-billion-profit-beats-forecasts.html?_r=0
And Conoco-Phillips had a quarter profit of $2,100,000,000
So, why are these same idiots not protesting Big Oil now?
Well, of course the only reason is that Obama is in office and the number 1 commandment is do not protest when Obama is in office because it will make him look bad.
Just look at the protest about Trayvon Martin- to most people, it made Obama look bad. He was supposed to be the great healer between the races and he was proved wrong by a bunch of useful idiots.
