Right....

But I still think that labeling someone as "un-American" for criticizing BP's actions in the aftermath of the oil well blowout in the Gulf is more then a wee bit over-the-top... and likely does imply or indicate a fair amount of a "pro big business" philosophical orientation. BP being about as "big" as they come.... <g>

(Turn the rhetorical formulation around... is the only "American" attitude to place certain groups or classes above or beyond all criticism? To me THAT sounds more "un-American". Political faux pas, IMO....)
