This is an issue of the Governor of Louisiana. He has no emergency response in place to act in a manner with the leaders of his communities to make a difference. This 'frustration' and that of residents such as Mary Matalin and James Carville, with the federal response to the local response effort has to be directed where it belongs and it is on the shoulders of the REPUBLICAN Governor. Stop gaming this emergency.
Venice, Louisiana -- Plaquemines Parish President Billy Nungesser on Wednesday blasted the federal government's response to the oil spill that has fouled more than 100 miles of the state's coast, and called for its point man to step aside.
"Thad Allen should resign," Nungesser told CNN, referring to the U.S. Coast Guard admiral who has been leading the government's effort. "He's done absolutely nothing. He's an embarrassment to this country."
Nungesser, who had just completed a tour of the stricken area, bemoaned what he had seen. "The same oil that's been out there two weeks ago is still out there, and nothing is being done," he said. "The marsh is dying. It's dead."...
There was absolutely nothing in place in Louisiana except a means to bring money to its treasury from the offshore drilling. I sincerely doubt Jindal EVER gave a thought to any emergency occurring. His 'tweeter' account is showing him exactly what a lousy Governor he is. Isn't that too bad.
President Obama never had a, "Good Job, Brownie' day since this started. I don't believe BP should have been given the lead, but, in reality the USA military had 'no clue' how to handle this and they refused to destroy the oil well.
People are complaining about pelicans eating dead fish as if there is something President Obama is suppose to do with every dead fish. He didn't do this !
Let's get one thing straight, this is a REPUBLICAN mess from beginning to end that HAPPENED to arrive during the Obama Presidency.
TOO BAD. When are the Republicans going to 'step up' and 'take responsibility' for some of the loosest and lousiest policies in the history of the country?
Wait, let me guess, Never. The blame game stated with the hearing of BP, Transocean and Halliburton, but, the political circus with Republicans is just as disgusting.
I do believe Senator Bill Nelson proudly stated, "Florida refused to have off shore drilling this close to its shorelines." I'll be darn.
The reason President Obama's 'response' is a TARGET is because the Republicans are attempting to divert their idiocy of THIRTY years of loose and fast policy.
I don't want to hear about the cost of this to the people of the region, if the Republicans can run an illegal war with SUBSIDIES of $86 billion to Iraq in cold hard cash on a flight to Baghdad, the people of the USA should receive that and MORE.
The policies of George Walker Bush, Richard Cheney and every indulgent Republican along the way are directly responsible for this entire disaster, no different than the banking collapse.
Give me a break !
