Where is BP based off? Britain? Wonder if Brits (government) would go down the path of kicking BP leadership and bringing in new blood. Perhaps break the company down into different business units in a way that mitigates British pensions.

"Having been roasted for criticizing Obama [Clinton, Pelosi] previously I will go ahead..." and use this post to insert more political views and take one more shot at Obama and Pelosi.

If BP has the financial capability to pay the 'fine' and/or cost of the spill, there is no need to panic and bail them out. if the shareholders want to turf management, they can set about doing that. If the fine/cost puts them in a possible bankruptcy situation so be it. The BP stock price has little relevance to anything going on in the Gulf other than they may have to issue stock to pay for the mess. Again, the shareholders will and should have to take the kick in the ass for that. That is the risk they took.
