I just would like some answers from the White House.
No. You want to blame Obama for things that were not of his doing and out of his control.
I'm asking for leadership.
Who do you think is running the show at the White House? Here's a hint: Obama doesn't have a puppet master like the previous president did. If you think Obama takes his marching orders from anyone else in his administration, you're dreaming.
According to the White House they've been on the job since day one.
It's a fact. The Coast Guard was there right after the blast. It's unfortunate for you that this doesn't fit in with your "Everything Obama does is WRONG!" ideology, but it happens to be the truth. :shrug:
I tried to reply but just couldn't without laughing. Sorry.
Again, the Coast Guard was on the scene immediately after the explosion, and they haven't left. Since April 20, they've been joined by tens of thousands of individuals from various other federal agencies and organizations trying to repair the damage BP has done.
Specifically: Leadership. Leadership is the process where a person empowers, motivates and takes on the responsibility to get a task or tasks completed through others.
Exactly. THROUGH OTHERS. That's precisely what the man is doing – attacking the problem from multiple directions through the use of multiple federal agencies, in an attempt to complete the task of picking up the oil-soaked leftovers that BP is spewing all over the Gulf. :doh
Look you idoloize Obama and have your head up his ass so far you can taste his lunch.
"Idolize?" That's pretty funny! I may respect the man for taking on the task of trying to clean up the numerous disasters left in the wake of the previous administration, and do believe he's got the best interests of the American people at heart, but I sure as hell don't think he walks on water. He's just as fallible as anyone else is. The thing is,
you see only in absolutes – if Obama's not fixing whatever problem right now, right away, this instant, and doing it in exactly the way you want it done, he's not only not leading, he's doing "nothing." :roll:
I want. I want. I want. Gimmee! GIMMEE! GIMMEEEEEE!!!!
As already noted, people in hell want ice water.
I want a big bag of money and an end to Bush's oil war in Iraq. Sometimes you get what you want; sometimes you don't. In this case,
Obama is doing what it is possible to do as a president at this time. That it doesn't satisfy your warped idea of what a president "owes" you, or fulfill your list of "wants" is of no concern to me
or to him.
Finally, I'm not the one expecting him to walk on the oil-soaked waters and fix everything, here…
you are. :doh
