As much as Im Pisstawph at BP, the 20 billio0n was extortion IMO & it was put in the hands of the same A55HOLE who was in charge of handin out the $$ after 9/11. I dont trust that setup, at all. I dont see why BP couldnt have put the money in a trust fund & allowed people to apply for repareations. I think the people who get a dime in compensation for thier losses should be made public & the $$$ amount made public, so the $$$ cant just disappear into the pockets of bureaucrats.

obama getting this money without a guilty verdict (except in the court of public opinion) is extortion, plain and simple.

apparently laws that protect others rights don't matter to you, until one day when you are on the receiving end of "justice".  

So,.. if you run over my mailbox, and I come to you and ask for $20 to get a new one..... That's extortion?....
Not!....

If I threaten to commit an illegal act against you if you you don't give me $20... That's extortion...
If I simply ask you to put up what you clearly owe for damages you admittedly caused,... Not!...

BP did what it did and admitted it, and promised to cover it...  Obama simply said...
Pony it up...

actually its more like you being in an accident, and before the cars are even towed away, the cop on the scene tells you to write a check, you dont have enough so you have to call your friends and family.  it doesnt matter that you have insurance, he just stands in front of a mob and demands it.  and the mob yells for you to be shot on the spot.
yeah, thats more like it

"justice" without due process

Oh come on Butt,...  

BP ain't your little sister...  It's one of the richest, most powerful companies in the world...
It didn't have to call mommy and big brother for money...
Obama didn't threaten to beat up Tony Hayward...  
He just said,
"Show me the money!"...

If you are injured, and the party at fault refuses to admit guilt or pay restitution,... then the laws protect you...

If you are injured, and the party at fault admits guilt and promises to pay full restitution,... the law is not required...
That is the case with BP,... so far...

Laws are to correct injustices...  

"We are a nation of laws" is a sophism...

All civilized nations have laws, and so, they are all "Nations of laws"...

What? You think Ive ever asked a mod to come in here? Or ever would? You think more of yoiurself than I see as reasonable. you dont matter to me, Mick. You can say whay ya want & act all tough & the like, I dont care. Talk crap about me, I dont care. Why dont I care? Cuz you dont matter to me. I tried to get along with you, but you made that impossible. so, say/do what ya will. Pretend that because I dont trust the goobs & you do, youre a brave man. I dont care, dude. trust them all you want.

thanks for your thoughts mick!

Yes, I would trust my mother to handle my money but my parents raised me to take care of myself and not to depend on others.

as to the rest of your comments, I do ride and really couldnt care less what you think of me. Moxy, I am sure the ladies here do have plenty.

it is pretty sad that so much is just a photo op for PR.

people need to just do it instead of trying to make themselves look busy

Ive seen reports of BP hauling groupls of workers to be busily cleaning up a beach when a VIP was gonna show up. Soon as the VIP left, theyd load up the workers & houl them away.
