>> What would you have him do that he hasn't done?

There are things that could have been done. Jindal has, for days, been trying to get the Corps of Engineers to approve a plan to use sand to protect certain areas, and the Corps is unresponsive. Obama could solve that problem.

Obama was asked by BP during the early days of this event for assistance, repeatedly. Instead, the administration got "angry" like 3-year old children who had their toys taken away.

The oil, thus far, has given Obama a reprieve by staying offshore. If it ends up coming ashore (which may or may not happen in sizable quantities), questions are going to be asked about what might have been done NOW to protect the injured regions.

What is amazing to me is the Obama administration's need to blame someone. There is no, "The Buck Stops Here" as there was was with other presidents. It is constantly the whining and blaming others like a schoolkid whose dog peed on his homework.

I would just like to have an adult in the White House. At this point I don't much care who it is as long as this turkey moves out.
