BP (Barely Plausible)

Mr. Obama,

I see you have chastised BP for "nickel and diming" the gulf coast population while advertising what they are accomplishing in spill cleanup and containment. If I might point out a couple of items requiring your attention.

BP is actually doing something while you are just blaming something.

BP is paying for its' view of the spill while you rely on the media you carry around in your pocket to present your agenda.

BP is attempting to clean up and stop the spill with its' limited resources while the governor of Louisiana screams for federal permission and assistance, and gets a limited response.

BP is providing monetary assistance to those directly affected by the spill while all you can say is somebody is going to pay.

In closing Mr. Obama, I live on the island of Key West where all the oil still floating has to pass when it makes its' way out to the Atlantic. I am looking forward to seeing you down here blaming BP for their ineptitude and telling me you are in charge. I will be wondering though, while BP attempted to clean up where the oil is, why weren't you attempting to protect the areas in its path?

With the respect due the Office of the President,

Edward Rodda
