Apparently BP or some other company bussed a load of cleanup workers onto Obama-beach so that they would be seen on TV while the President was inspecting them and some tar balls. Apparently they were bussed away soon after the President left. Today there is no cleanup personnel on Obama beach.

JimNP72,
I am right in the center of maybe the redest districts in America,
Report thisall really pretty good people, but have the same
fixations as your sister, trying to point them towards
reality only causes alienation, I believe I have dug
my hole too deep here to get out.

my sister down in Fl thinks it is all the antichrist obama’s fault. says he is going
to raise the price of gas to 12/gallon this summer and we are going to have a
revolt.says she is going to demonstrate on sunday in support of Arizona
immigration law.
she and her husband have the fox news channel on all the time, and the steady
drumbeat of fear-mongering, exaggerations and lies have totally brainwashed
them.
Obama is also responsible for the 17 trillion national debt, and the health crisis
as well. she is appalled at the drilling moratorium as well.
I am telling you this so you know what we are up against, it is scary and
formidable, as she is so representative of so many.
other wise I love her and she is a sweet sister.

O.K., as of this morning it is being reported that the “Top Kill” operation had actually been suspended Wednesday night, the night before Obama’s speech, so he was not up to date on the operation. He also spoke about the positive action of on-going oil booming, but knowledgeable insiders say that that operation has been and continues to be a total bungle as well. I’m questioning how informed Obama really is to the reality of this whole situation.
Check out this link for an interesting take on the “oil booming” situation.

Let me also take this opportunity to vent my frustration over his comment about his daughter asking if the hole was plugged while he was shaving, as well as his interest in the basketball finals. While I understand he is human and I think it is very commendable that he is obviously a great husband and dad,I think he creates an image of someone with a 9-5 job, and it makes me uncomfortable. I want to think that as the leader of the free world and with all of the huge issues facing him right now that he would be willing to, and understands the importance of, separating himself from his domestic life for awhile to get down and dirty about the business of saving this country, and the planet.
