I picked other. Its not his responsibility to handle the leak and it should first be responsibility of BP and the local states to protect their coastline and then the states ask for help if it is too much to handle and then Obama should get the federal government to help with the clean up and give BP the bill for the clean up..
I hardly ever agree with any of your politics, but at least you're remaining ideologically consistent. Most of the other conservatives commenting on this issue, however, seem to be criticizing Obama for not making more of an effort or for not being more engaged in this event, despite their ideologies stating that the President shouldn't be involved in such an event, as "the free market" should be able to handle it. Which I think shows just how many conservatives there are who will take any view on an issue thye can just to criticize the President. Which means that no matter what Obama does, most conservatives (especially the pundits) will just criticize him no matter what he does. Kudos to you.
