Oil Spill Debacle

There are pundits out there saying that the oil spill in the Gulf is Obama's Katrina. Honestly, I think that's a serious slight to George W. Bush. Atleast they were actively trying to help even though the results were suspect. Obama does not appear to be doing anything. Consider:

  • He has not suspended the Jones Act which would allow foreign ships to aid in the clean-up.

  • He has put a drilling moritorium in the Gulf which actually increases the likelihood of another Deepwater Horizon like incident.
