I heard on the radio that the Obama Admin. has (since the crisis) issued 5 more deepwater drilling permits....including 2 that bypassed the normally required impact studies.

I wonder if his actions/inactions relate to all those campaign contributions he got from the oil companies?

Ted, even the LATimes is starting to call out Obama on his tough talk and relative inaction:

Obama administration talks tough, but carries small club in gulf oil crisis

While this continues with no solution in sight, there will be blame and finger pointing. It goes with the territory.
