Wait a minute. Wait just one minute on this.

Weâve heard the quote from the President. Now read it.
No seriously. Read it again.
He is talking to experts not to find out how to solve the problem but to find out whose ass to kick? Seriously?
That is the President of the United States in his own words.
There is one well leaking caused by the collapse of one platform owned by one company.
Not only has Barack Obama not once talked to the CEO of that company, his big donor British Petroleum, he overreacted and shut down every companyâs offshore drilling â every single one. He put, effective immediately, tens of thousands of people on the unemployment line.
And in the President of the United States own words, heâs not talking to experts to figure out how to solve the problem, but to figure out who to assign blame to.
This is not leadership. Heck, this isnât even bullying.
This is failure.
