BP CEO does something, so let's rant about Obama. This is :lamo
Unless Hayward has some miracle to kill the well that he's not telling anyone, I don't see what the big deal is about him going on a boat ride.
If I check your post history am I going to find similar sentiment about Obama and this oil spill?

Not a snail's chance in a resturant full of hungry Frenchmen.
Remember, he's part of the "Blame Obama for everything" crowd. Similar to the anti-Bushies. Two sides of the same coin.
BP’s embattled CEO, Tony Hayward — who has come under tough criticism from lawmakers — will no longer oversee the company’s day-to-day response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the oil company’s board chairman told British TV station Sky News on Friday.
BP Board Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg told the network that Hayward is “handing over the operation” to Bob Dudley, the company’s managing director.

Forecast shows rain this week. Obama did it.
Wasn't that you that was blaming the recession on Bush a while back? You ain't got no room to talk.
I thought we were going to have a civil little thread here. Reckon I should have known better than that, consdering the posters involved.
This place is start to resemble Whistlestopper during its crazy period. Can we somehow section off the "Blame Bush/Obama for everything" crowd and then gas them or at least put a warning sign on their foreheads?
Does anyone honestly expect Hayward at this point to be able to do anything more? Sure it was a bad PR move, but c'mon.
Likewise, I don't expect a lawyer to be able to take charge of deep water drilling.
*expects flak from both insane righties and lefties*
That's profoundly offensive. Really. Forget Whistestopper, the reference is to Nazis and the Holocaust and you suck!
i think people expect him to swim down to the bottom of the ocean and fix it, much like someone else. :neutral:
I dislike populism very much.
Every news story, it seems, is trying to stoke the fires of populist outrage.
Aquaman for President of the US and BP!!!! Best idea I've heard all year.
Even Aquaman will be sniped for taking an oceanic vacation.
There is no quick fix for stupid.
Washington Examiner said:But the Kerry-BP alliance for an energy bill that included a cap-and-trade scheme for greenhouse gases pokes a hole in a favorite claim of President Obama and his allies in the media — that BP’s lobbyists have fought fiercely to be left alone. Lobbying records show that BP is no free-market crusader, but instead a close friend of big government whenever it serves the company’s bottom line.
While BP has resisted some government interventions, it has lobbied for tax hikes, greenhouse gas restraints, the stimulus bill, the Wall Street bailout, and subsidies for oil pipelines, solar panels, natural gas and biofuels.
Now that BP’s oil rig has caused the biggest environmental disaster in American history, the Left is pulling the same bogus trick it did with Enron and AIG: Whenever a company earns universal ire, declare it the poster boy for the free market.
No, you won't. Obama is the president. It's his job to mobilize the might of the United States to protect her citizens; which, as we all know, he failed at, miserably.
Obama is a national leader--supposed to be anyway. Tony Hayward is a blow-dried suit-n-tie wearin' mother****er that would just be in the way.
Such socialism.
