President Obama invites the 11 families of the dead oil workers to the White House
Just heard this on CNN radio news....... What do you think?

Me? Maybe the tears he sees will get him to kick some real ass
and put BP into receivership.

1. I don't care about ass kicking. I don't care about people right now.

I'd be happy with some seriously pushed tough legislation, to be honest. And maybe well...force the American people on micromanaging on low oil usage because he's banned the use of off shore drilling. We have to worry about the environment because if we don't have a safe place to live where we can eat on from the environment---these people won't have much to complain about for long.

3. BP America needs to go into receivership
they are all a bunch of liars. They act like they own our beaches and oceans.
I'm frankly sick of it having worked on a fishing boat in the Gulf in my youth.

Get high speed rail working .... Africa has one now.... good grief Africa and we don't.

4. I agree. But I want all the other oil companies in check as well.
BP is not the first and won't be the last with this kind of disaster under their belt.
