I did notice that he gave one of his very rare speeches from the Oval Office. It was reported that he wanted to fly to Tahiti to make the address, but both Air Farce One and Air Farce Two are both having their engines overhauled due to the extreme stress they’ve been under the last few months flying Michelle, Barry, family, friends, bikes, and dog all over the planet.
Sowell also pointed out something that I often highlight on this blog. Ignorance and apathy embolden and empower tyrannical rule.
I really don’t know what the Administration could have done to help stop this oil leak, but I truly believe that if Obama had a secret weapon that would plug the leak he wouldn’t use it until it politically suited him. To radicals like him, the ends always justify the means. If it takes a couple of billion gallons of oil in the Gulf of Mexico destroying millions of small business to finally put an end to oil drilling once and for all, so be it!
