Granted, its not the government's JOB to "bail out" corporations...but on the other hand, when our states coastlines are at risk, it is only right that the President get his rear in gear and do what he can to expedite help to the states...such as making it possible for LA to build barriers, and maybe, gee, how about making it easier to drill in the shallows instead of making lots of "green" laws and then yelling at the oil companies when they backfire....Suzynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-15909841213924561152010-06-01T12:27:20.012-05:002010-06-01T12:27:20.012-05:00"But if that's true, what sort of prepara..."But if that's true, what sort of preparation was it?"<br /><br />H.TheOldMannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-15174068413476647612010-06-01T09:38:04.567-05:002010-06-01T09:38:04.567-05:00"prepared from the beginning" and "..."prepared from the beginning" and "prepared for the worst" in the context of this administration simply means that they got everyone into a room to make sure they had their story straight...<br /><br />Let BP flounder, place blame elsewhere, reassure the public that they (the admin) have always been in charge and sit back and watch the crisis unfold<br /><br />The ultimate in passive behavior .. sit back, make sure your a$$ is covered and point the finger wherever you canThe Dark Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12969018899286423083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-15448181824677895312010-06-01T07:42:34.554-05:002010-06-01T07:42:34.554-05:00Save that last frame of your cartoon, it might sav...Save that last frame of your cartoon, it might save time when your topic is don't ask - don't tellBuzz Bannisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18381566328347959069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-71211217061783672602010-06-01T06:46:49.234-05:002010-06-01T06:46:49.234-05:00"prepared for the worst"/"prepared ..."prepared for the worst"/"prepared from the beginning" from an administration that uses "unexpected" to explain things like upticks in the unemployment rate; doesn't read well (i.e, pass ObamaCare first, read later. Jump on the Arizona immigration enforcement bill first, don't need to read it at all); and pretty much blames everything on the prior administration ("been busy with the mop").<br /><br />This administration is proving that it was "unprepared from the beginning" to run this country.
