"And the government should have taken the BP executives in for bribing the government, but instead they will parcel out that money among their selves, but the victims may get 10% or so."

You do know that the person in charge of parceling out the money is the same person who parceled out the 9/11 compensation for George W. Bush? You know on Sunday he said that the fund is a totally private affair with no cap, and he swears he's not going to let the government touch it? That he also promises that claimants will be paid promptly and "leeway" will be given them on documentation?

So much for the right wingnut claim that the fund is just a "slush fund" for Obama..

" I believe it was an accident."

Sort of. When you violate most of the safety protocols and an accident happens, it is hard to say it is an act of God.

"but instead they will parcel out that money among their selves, but the victims may get 10% or so."

Whoops. You got into the Koolaid early, didn't you?
