Oh man, I don't know why I torture myself watching O'Reilly, no matter how he can appear fair and balanced next to his fellows on Fox and talk radio. He still perpetuates the idiotic. He's sitting there letting Palin go on and on about this oil spill like she actually knows what she's talking about. Oh yes, and it is ironic because he says we have you on here because you have a lot of experience with oil companies so I want to know your opinion. To which she goes on about how Obama's priority is not dealing with the spill but trying to find a way to tax oil more. WTF serious? He didn't buy it and he tried to redirect her, "You can't tell me honestly his priority is not stopping the leak." Thank you voice of reason, although he let her and others get away with even dumber statements later.
I swear they talk like he's Mao or Stalin. "He's a communist, socialist nazi!" People actually buy this bullshit? People actually respect Sarah Palin as a person??? SHE'S AN IDIOT. Not in any special way, not because she's a woman, not because she's white, not because she's a republican, she's just a stupid person. She's an idiot who should have never gotten into politics or the public eye. She can't speak, she can't articulate her thoughts and she just spouts off rhetoric that other idiots repeat like it's gospel. I do not like this woman, and I wish she would leave the public eye and her influence would go away. She has this dangerous power to motivate people who are already angry for no good reason.
This BP spill has been a royal fuck up. It's common sense that there wasn't much Obama could do personally, but I do feel that we have trusted BP too long with this. This whole spill dropped off my radar when we were without TV for 2 weeks and when I got here and realized it was still going on I was shocked.
I understand that maybe he didn't know what to do, but honestly, his opposition was ready to jump on him before he had a chance to take it in, why would you fuel that by so obviously appearing that you don't know what you're doing. Granted, no one else knows what to do, Palin was saying what about the Dutch, they know about dikes and dams and stuff, ask them. Really? Let's build a dike in the middle of the gulf, that will work!
Point is, even if NO ONE knows what to do, try and not look like another idiot. He's a highly educated man with resources and forget what those other idiots say about you "trying to take over" BP. You can't nationalize a company that isn't based in your NATION. So take the bull by the horns. Now even the Brits are saying, "Keep your hands off my pension Obama!" Blame that on the company that messed up in the first place. Not Obama. People are so damn one sided sometimes.
