There is no defense of the pathetic display by the Obama administration for the lack of immediate action which should have been taken as soon as the BP oil spill occurred.They should have been involved immediately in finding a solution to stem the BP leak in the Gulf of Mexico. The oil is still leaking after almost six weeks, as of this writing it is day 41, and now we hear from Nancy "Stretch" Pelosi.
She is doing nothing to help the situation but has now placed the blame for the oil leak on George W. Bush. Hey "Stretch", the well is still leaking, blaming Bush is not going to cap the leak. When the brain trust of this administration cannot find an easy solution to a problem, they use the same old play book, they either blame Bush or throw money at the problem. This time, that won't work.
The Washington Examiner reports:Pelosi cannot defend the Obama administration's lack of response to the BP oil crisis, so she plays the 'blame game.' 'San Fran Nan', we are tired of the blame Bush rhetoric. Barack Obama is now in charge, he is the President, but his administration apparently is not close to finding a solution to the extremely severe problem which still exists.
"Many of the people appointed to the Bush administration are still burrowed in the agencies that are supposed to oversee the [oil] industry. "Pelosi said when asked if Democrats could have prevented or mitigated the crisis by keeping a closer watch on the industry.
The Speaker added, "the cozy relationship between the Bush administration's agency leadership and the industry is clear...I've heard no complaints from my members about the way the president has handled it." Pelosi stated.
On Friday "The Washington Examiner" asked Nancy Pelosi's office to release a list of the people Bush appointed that she was referring to. I doubt that we will ever see a list.
Her statement was simply 'cover fire' because Obama has a problem he cannot solve, he is looking extremely bad, he has shown very little leadership, and this problem is his responsibility.
