I assure you, if Americans boycotted every BP station, in fact EVERY DAMNED
BRITISH PRODUCT OR SERVICE it would get their attention. BP's attitude from
the start has been arrogant and unsympathetic and every American should be
outraged. As late as yesterday...YESTERDAY !----a full 34 days after they
have filled the Gulf of Mexico with their
gushing oil they gave the US EPA the finger. The EPA asked them to use less
toxic dispersants and BP told us to shove it.

But, we'll just roll over and let them continue to stick it in us.

As for the local station owners: boo-hoo. If every one of them shut down I
gar-own-tee ya it would get the notice of the regional suppliers and trickle
up into where the real corruption begins...the top.

We are so acclimated to having damned messages sent to us by the assholes
that are running and ruining everything that it is overdue that we send a
few "messages" of our own.

Of course, Americans are way too gutless to do anything like general strikes
and boycotts. They've got us so fragmented and divided in this country that
none of us agree on anything anymore. So BP will happily continue to **** on
us knowing that such strikes and boycotts have effectively worked many times
elsewhere but the mind-dead Americans would never consider such a thing.

I sincerely feel for the good people of the Gulf Coast states not to mention
the disastrous effect on lives of animals, plants and the ecosystem.
Knuckleheads like Joe don't seem to understand that when one thing gets out
of balance it affects everything else. But he (and others) see no evil in
this will savor the flavor of the Kool Aid they're drinking.

You've just described the Obama administrator reaction to this.

British POLLUTION (BP) gave the Born in Kenya! ULTIMATE POS! $77,000,
according to what JT and Dave said a few days ago.

Big deal. IF he, or any president, avoided vacations whenever any
crisis occurred, most of them would never leave the White House. You
take a tiny slice of his tenure and make believe that's the norm? God
almighty, look at what Bush did - he bicycled and brush-cleared hsi
way through the Presidency...

Yes but I notice your lack of outrage here. Of course it would be altogether
different if we had a Republican prez right now. If it wisent for the lefts
double standard, they would have no standards.

You noticed nothing because I have not expressed it. I *am* outraged,
livid in fact, that Obama so far appears to have let so much of this
crisis slide by. That *by no means* takes the blame off the previous
Admins, under whom this whole sordid system began.

Wanna talk about a double standard?

What party has traditionally been the staunchest ally of BIG OIL?

What party now tries to point the finger at a Liberal because he was
caught off-guard?

What party is now crying because their constituents' livelihoods are
being crushed by the very industry they have long supported?

Give ya a hint - they're all the same answer.

You can grouse all you like, but as a liberal I have NEVER supported
offshore drilling or extraction, and I have no sympathy for any
politician right or left who has supported it or has been asleep at
the wheel when tragedy strikes. If you can find a double standard
there, you're a magician...or else a liar, take your pick.

G. W. Bush certainly had his share of disasters on -his- watch: 9/11,
Katrina, two wars and the start of the current Great Depression and that
didn't keep him from being away from the White House more than ANY other
president in history.

So what's yer point?
