Obama 'too slow to act against oil slick disaster' threatening species along the coast

President Obama was facing a growing backlash last night over the U.S. government's slow response to the oil spill disaster.
Ten days after BP's Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded and 210,000 gallons a day started spewing into the Gulf of Mexico, a massive slick hit America's southern coastline.
As a massive operation was launched to try to protect threatened wildlife, critics compared Mr Obama's belated attempts to contain the catastrophe to George W Bush's dithering over Hurricane Katrina.

Kliphnote: If this was Bush there would be an uproar.
But because it's, " The One" he gets a free pass. Forever!
The MSM will not say much about Obama being slow in response.
Time to stop all oil drilling in the US.
Let's import all of our oil.
Raise CAFE to 50 mpg.
Time to FORCE people to drive micro cars.
You will hear that from the left.
The limousine liberals.
You know the ones.
Driving big SUV's telling others what to drive.
And the one's jetting all over the US and the world
telling others to be frugal.
Just BS.
