You were trying to blame Bush for the current disaster in the Gulf. He is no longer POTUS.


Obama is.

ok. but I'm still trying to see how.

"You had executives of BP and Transocean and Halliburton falling over each other to point the finger of blame at somebody else."

Do you know who was brought to Congressional hearings and who was pointing finger at who?

Oil execs face more questions about Gulf spill - CNN.com
Executives from BP, Transocean and Halliburton are back in the hot seat Wednesday as a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee questions them about the Gulf Coast oil spill.

The three companies have primarily blamed each other for the accident in April that left 11 workers dead and oil still spewing into the Gulf.

hhhmmm...... Halliburton? the one who was also involved in war profiteering scheme in Iraq War? the one which Dick Cheney was chairman and CEO of? :hmm:

Jiro, in the magical world of law suits, the court can apportion the blame. That's why all of the entities are busy pointing fingers at each other. Dump as much of the responsibility on the other guy as possible.

It'd help if they can get the right president under the right year for once. Clearly a mistake, yet won't admit to the error that it wasn't under Bush when it was ordered in 1998 and laid down in 2000? Be a man, admit that part incorrect for once. "All this... was under Bush Administration." Nope. Not even true for year 1998 - 2001 (January)

Clinton was responsible for the purchase and construction of oil rig? wow!

this oil rig was ordered on December 1998. It was laid down on March 21, 2000. It was completed on 2001. It was acquired by Transocean in 2001. BP leased it until 2013.

All this... was under Bush Administration

I was merely pointing out that no.....not all of that happened under Bush.

Many people blame the existence of the rig for the oil leak. They say offshore drilling is too dangerous and not worth the risk.

Obama's people gave this rig an award for safety. If that doesn't put the blame on him it should at least take away his finger pointing rights in this case.

and if the President was lied to? I mean.. it's no worse than Bush's "Mission Accomplished" poster cuz it ain't accomplished. and it ain't justified either.

yes thank you for correction. the operation and completion were under Bush. and Halliburton? Dick Cheney's company?

bad intel on Iraq? Should you blame Obama for bad intel or give him a pass?

It'd be true saying that some of that was under during the Bush administration, but certainly not "all that." Pretty easy thing to correct and admit.
