DC for BP?

Is British Petroleum doing all it can to cork and clean the still gushing oil spill? Some think not. So why hasn't the Obama Administration simply stepped in and federalized the whole operation? After all, we are talking about liberal Democrats who are otherwise eager to federalize, well, everything.

My wife had a thought: (1) If they take over, they'll assume responsibility for the fix and, as things stand, they have absolutely no better ideas than does BP. (2) If things remain as they are, then BP remains as well a convenient whipping boy.

OK Honey. I posted it and, yes, you got the credit.

Gee whiz!
