Oil spill and agenda

A few things to note as we are on day 58 of the BP oil spill:

1. Obama gave his first Oval Office address last night, with underwhelming results. Chris Matthews and Obama lapdog Olbermann both thought he didn't show executive command. Other commentators said it was dry and too little, too late.
2. He is trotting out the Climate bill "Cap and Tax" now, which is hugely unpopular. Never let a crisis go to waste, right Obama?
3. He's putting a moratorium on drilling for the next six months in the gulf. Wonder how many thousands of jobs that will lose?
4. His approval rating is at 42 percent....and 44 percent now have a "strong" disapproval of Obama.
5. The New York Times came out with an exhaustive story the other day about how badly managed the cleanup has been.
6. Louisianan's think Bush handled Katrina better than Obama is handling the oil spill, by a 15 point margin in the poll.

With all that being said, I hope Obama stops being so preachy about how government can solve and handle everything with such precision. This is the latest example that they can't. I don't cast as much blame on Obama as many fellow conservatives will, being that it's a disaster unlike any other. But I do challenge him on saying how poorly Bush did, while most think he's done worse. So far, he hasn't admitted any federal failings... We'll see..
