Barack and BP

The BP oil spill is fast becoming the President's Katrina. But is holding him responsible fair?

Probably not. But welcome to the Oval Office; if it happens and it's bad, it's the top dog's fault. Even if he isn't a corporate honcho.

Such is politics in America. One could almost feel sorry for Mr. Obama, except that it's his, or more correctly, his political ancestors', liberal policies which have led to the idea that the government is responsible for all things.

Oil and vinegar on your salad, Mr. President?
