Great quotes from the man in charge of BP, "We’re sorry for the massive disruption it’s caused their lives. There’s no one who wants this over more than I do. I would like my life back." Yes because no one is suffering more than you Hayward, who pulled in $4.5 million last year, has a record of insensitive comments about the greatest environmental disaster in the United States: “What the hell did we do to deserve this?” [New York Times, 4/30/10] Oh I don't know take short cuts on safety to save money, What did the people who live on the coast do to deserve this, or everything the oil is killing do to deserve death “The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean. The amount of volume of oil and dispersant we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume.” [Guardian, 5/14/10] Not anymore, seems this thing is going to cause world wide damages, and it is not an OCEAN, it's a GULF “I think the environmental impact of this disaster is likely to be very, very modest.” [Sky News, 5/18/10] Really, well I wonder how you define modest?

He's an idiot alright. Maybe he should resign and get a job with the IDF; he's at least as competent as the CO of their commando brigade it seems. Meanwhile the market price of BP shares is plummeting too - 35% down since this started apparently. Not only have this man's policies resulted in a massive bill (a billion dollars to date apparently, but that seems a very low estimate) to clean up a monumental disaster that is still ongoing but theyve also wiped billions from the value of the company. It seems to me that if one is going to do something that is very risky and which should the worst happen should be highly dangerous then one might wish to consider in the planning certain contingencies that might arise and anticipate these with at least as much attention as that devoted to the purpose of the plan. That such contingencies - very obvious contingencies with very obvious dangers - were self evidently neither considered nor taken into account marks the company out as extremely negligent at the very least. But it also seems to me that if youre in charge of authorising this sort of thing and monitoring it then you might also have taken a similarly cautious approach - that this project was permitted to go ahead and despite signals of actual problems allowed to continue - indicates at least the same degree of negligence on the part of the authorities responsible, perhaps a greater degree considering their competence to issue permits, impose conditions, carry out monitoring and to call a halt should problems arise - as it seems they did well before the horrific loss of life that predated the current crisis.

So the spill is all about him? HA. These corporations are out of control.. and more then just BP. We must start pulling charters. At one time they had to serve the public good and that had to be renewed. (10 years?) now they are giant hedge funds that eat people.

Meanwhile, on planet Earth, your hero Rand Paul ran to the defense of BP and its executives because, apparently, the government was being unfair to them.

Kit, then he is WRONG. He needs to talk about the federal reserve.

kittinSol -> RE: BP CEO whinning wants his life back (6/1/2010 9:08:09 AM)
Both Rand Paul and his Daddy are in favour of deregulating businesses. When they speak of "defending freedom", they also mean "defending the freedom of corporations to suck at the taxpayers' tit and do as they please". You may want to reconsider your allegiances [8D] .

The Pauls will not be getting a seat on the reverse Mayflower.

quote: There’s no one who wants this over more than I do. I would like my life back." Oh the poor baby[8\|] I'm guessing there is a lot of people in the gulf region who would like their lives back too, not to mention all the life that has already been destroyed in the gulf because of this or the people who were killed in the original explosion.

Not to worry. When this is all over- he will become a lobbyist on K street.
