MMS was already being cleaned up, from the day Salazar took office. now things are stepped up and going deeper. I do realize, again, that many don't pay attention to the boring details of what happens at the agencies, but things have been moving along. and this from that article you posted: In fact, Obama hasn’t seen a Bush action he truly disavows. that is not factual. a long day in the hot sun (sans a car to drive, sans a/c, sans running water) might chill the person down to think on that rather than making a blanket statement that renders her other point a tad less serious. and, gosh, maybe rather than tripping on the evils of BP, she might point out how she hasn't driven in a week, or turned on a light during daylight hours, or cooked meat for a month... I dunno, something to suggest how we are all a part of anything to do with oil.

To his credit, O is finally acknowledging that things are broken at the DOI and MMS. This is a "no drama Obama." It takes a level of intellect to understand how he operates. with him, those running around, kicking up muck find themselves solely disappointed when he does something. And this post is indicative of that. Some folks have been so busy kicking up dirt along with the oil spill have totally missed the benefits of the credit card reforms that was passed recently under insistence from the White House. People without jobs and with credit card debts were being charged exorbitant interests while they remained helpless in paying their debts. This bill provides such folks some relief. Remain positive and forward looking. Or else go away and don't spoil the expectations of those who post on this thread.
