Maybe I exaggerate a little bit, but "The Boner" is the leader of the House republicans, and as such, speaks for the republicans.
According to Think Progress, he said,
"I think the people responsible in the oil spill — BP and the federal government — should take full responsibility for what’s happening there."
He says the federal government, along with BP, is responsible for the oil spill. He is a member of the federal government, therefore he is admitting his responsibility. As leader of the minority in the House, he speaks for the republicans and thus the republicans are admitting their role in the oil spill.
Those responsible should pay. Boehner is telling the American people, you and me, that we should pay for the oil spill along with BP.
What a big dick!

I wonder what he thinks about this. Or this ("For 30 years, opponents of American energy have cloaked their arguments in an environmental apocalypse. They have tried to make the argument that no matter what we do, it will destroy the environment."). Or this.
ReplyDeleteMy 14 year old son, Garry, is constantly updating me about this spill.
ReplyDeleteHe is getting so into political stuff now.. and amazed at the arrogance of BP; and think they are lying often.
Me..? I am trying to tune it all out.. I feel 'powerless' and disheartened, when he brings it up. (sad)
"Thinking" and "speaking" are no longer connected activities. The first is pretty much non-existent and the second is something that just happens. It has no bearing on reality or even what you many have said last week.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds fall in the same ditch, Jerry. I also wrote one on Bad-Tan-Limpy's gratuitous support for BP. Now he has recanted, but he was for it before he was against it.
