It's an interesting story and account, but I feel that people are still putting too much blame on the side of the government. BP is solely responsible for this catastrophe. This isn't Obamas fault, it certainly isn't Bush's (I find it incredibly dumbfounding as to why that even gets hinted at in the article), it is BP who fucked up. Certainly there was a failure from the regulatory aspect, but fundementally BP wasn't doing what they were supposed to be doing from the get-go.
