I was shocked to see these lines on RealClearPolitics from MSNBC's coverage tonight. Mr. Obama seems more interested in making BP pay monetary damages than physically cleaning up the oil. His only idea for oil cleanup is to not drill at all. A perfect solution in academia where most of Mr. Obama's experience is, but plainly Impractical in the real world. His term cannot end soon enough.
From Real Clear Politics
Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann and Howard Fineman react to President Obama's Oval Office Address on the oil spill. Here are the highlights of what the trio said:
Olbermann: "It was a great speech if you were on another planet for the last 57 days."
Matthews compared Obama to Carter.
Olbermann: "Nothing specific at all was said."
Matthews: "No direction."
Howard Fineman: "He wasn't specific enough."
Olbermann: "I don't think he aimed low, I don't think he aimed at all. It's startling."
Howard Fineman: Obama should be acting like a "commander-in-chief."
Matthews: Ludicrous that he keeps saying [Secretary of Energy] Chu has a Nobel prize. "I'll barf if he does it one more time."
Matthews: "A lot of meritocracy, a lot of blue ribbon talk."
Matthews: "I don't sense executive command."

I agree that cleaning the spill should be priority..but it's in the next agenda. Pay then clean, damn BP.
