The hot news, right now, is the fact that British Petroleum (BP) wasn't required to conduct and file a normally required environmental impact study last year for that very same oil rig that has now caused the oil spill in the Gulf(Click to See Full Story from the typically Obama-friendly Washington Post : U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study). Apparently, Obama's EPA gave that mammoth oil company a pass. This from a Democrat controlled EPA that supposedly hates oil companies and any drilling activities.
Now, this morning, we find out that Obama, the politician, received more campaign cash from British Petroleum than any other politician had received from that company in the last 20 years (Click to See Full Story: Obama biggest recipient of BP cash). A quid pro quo on waving that impact study? Who knows? But, it sure looks suspicious. However, don't expect this Congress or the mainstream media to get to the bottom of this one!
