 Spike Lee on BP: Obama Shouldn’t Have Trusted ExecsPosted on Aug 23, 2010

Lee also believes that the location of the spill had something to do with the administration’s less-than-mercurial disaster response. —KA

Everyone seems surprised that Obama is more comfortable in a roomfull of suits and briefcases than with “The People.” Mild admonishments like those from Spike Lee seem to assume that “his man” has just somehow gone astray.

Sorry Spike, love your movies, but your man is an empty suit with no backbone.
