re: BP "We didn't ruin the Gulf; Bobby Jindal did" new statement

The spill has been a big ole money and power grab:

1) BP was, IMHO, stupid to agree to the economic and business loss settlement they agreed too and now have second thoughts about so I do not fault those businesses that claim.

2) BP did throw billions at politicians and local governments that didn't deserve anything IMHO

3) Jindal tried to make political hay out of the spill and I feel somehow is making a lot of money. Who can forget his idiotic construction of the sand berms that cost hundreds of millions?? That was nothing but a funneling of money to Shaw and a photo op for Jindal. Who can forget he hired a big ole Texas trial lawyer to represent the state? How much do you think that guy is going to funnel to the Jindal pac or campaign or the day? Oh yeah--Gibson Dunn who now represents BP hired Jindal's brother.

4) I agree the fresh water diversions harmed the oyster beds AND more fresh water diversions should be allowed if it means creation of more land along the lower Mississippi.
