The Deepwater Horizon Disaster Day 37-James Carville:" The Political Stupidity of This is Just Unbelievable"
You'd have to look long and hard to find more loyal Democrat than James Carville. Carville is a native Louisianan who today on GOOD MORNING AMERICA slammed the Obama administration for their handling of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
Also interviewed is ABC contributor Matthew Dowd, the host is George Stephanopoulos.
Opinion
Some of my progressive brethren may not be happy with my stance on the President's response, but BP's failures to stop the leak should have prompted a much stronger reaction from the administration. Tonight on HARD BALL Chris Matthews remarked on how Harry Truman would have responded; he would have tried to federalize every tanker in the Gulf and use them to suck up the oil slick. To overreach his authority in that way might cost Obama a second term, but you do it because it's the right thing to do....saving the Gulf of Mexico is more important than any Presidency, Matthews said.....and I agree with him.
Mr. Obama....you're needed in Louisiana. Its been 24 days since your last visit, but you're needed NOW. Desperately.
Barbara Boxer's fund raiser in San Francisco should have been put on a backburner.
