Obama: The Environmental President

The President is certainly known to be all things to all people- just ask him. As the Gulf Oil spill disaster continues becoming the world's greatest environmental disaster in history, Obama stands around as clueless as he was the day he entered office.

Where's George Bush to pound when you need him? While Bush owned the natural disaster that was Hurricane Katrina, Obama has yet to own this event. The media, too, has been far more forgiving for Obama's indecision and inability to act here than they were for Bush's inaction following Katrina.

In the end, this is on Obama's watch. You own it Barack. Besides being responsibile for doing nothing, you are responsible, along with BP, for allowing damage to pummel the coast unabated. Nice work, but I wouldn't expect anything more from you. We know you aren't a superman. I had my reservations you were even a good man before you took on the highest office in the land. I just wonder when the rest of the electorate will come to realize exactly who you are.
