>> I think BP got off way cheap. I also think BP would acknowledge that

But what do you know, really? BP paid something like $60 Billion. It was a big spill, there were big costs associated with it. But they paid way, way more than what those costs were. That's obvious.

It was nowhere NEAR $60 Billion. I think one of the problems is that leftwingers seem to often have difficulty in understanding just how much money billions amounts to. We're talking about the combined GNPs of ALL affected states for 50 years here. It was absurd, highway robbery as it were.

The problem with the Left if YOU don't like the product, you feel that a company should be put out of business.

Typical liberal intolerance. But only one example of many.

>> It was NOTHING to BP

That's the most stupid comment I've ever read. It was 60 Billion dollars plus the loss of the well. That's not nothing.

This is why people think liberals are so ignorant. Some of you are.
