Day 46 of BP oil spill – Obama pops off to Louisiana for third photo op then cries about BP paying dividends to shareholders
Obama popped off to Louisiana for his third photo op in the 46 days of the oil spill crisis, claiming he sees some progress in fighting the enormous oil spill but it’s “way too early to be optimistic” about BP’s latest control effort. Then Obama decided to worry about BP’ paying of dividends to shareholders. No word yet thought if he’s upset at and plans to return all the political donations he and his fellow marxistcrats received this year, and in years past.
“What I don’t want to hear is when they’re spending that kind of money on their shareholders that they’re nickeling and diming” local businesses and workers, Obama said.
The president spoke after arriving at the New Orleans airport for his third inspection tour, and his second in eight days, with national frustration boiling over. Obama indicated he felt it, too, along with residents of the Gulf and the rest of the country.
“This has been a disaster for this region, and people are understandably frightened and concerned about what the next few months and the next few years may hold,” Obama said after attending a briefing with Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the chief federal official for the spill response, and the governors of Louisiana, Florida and Alabama, along with other officials.
