President Obama met with BP executives, told them how it was going to be, and BP quickly agreed. I don't know who said this but they clearly don't have a clue. In spite of R. protests, BP is the winner here. They put up NOTHING. $5 Billion won't even BEGIN to touch this problem (they've already spent close to 2B, if not more). The BIG win is to fork over claims adjudication to an independent third party. Every time a claim was rejected, BP would have been bashed by the media. Now, it isn't their problem. Most importantly, Obama didn't tell "them how it was going to be". He had no standing to do so. The entire thing was arranged well before the 20 minute meeting.
