The current White House Administration has let the political machine ignore the severity of the Gulf Oil Spill. With multiple offers of assistance from foreign countries and companies, their refusal of help has added to the disaster in the gulf. Politics are getting in the way of helping those who live and work in the gulf states.
It has been said and written that the Gulf oil spill could be Barack Obama’s Katrina. That it most probably already is, but it could get much worse. Not “Waterloo”, but more like Napoleon’s ill-conceived Russian campaign of 1812, which cost him his army, his reputation, and, eighteen months later, his throne.
One of the likely destinations for the Gulf oil rigs is Brazil, where Obama invested $2 Billion of taxpayers’ money in August of 2009 to the Petrobras, the Brazilian state-own oil company. George Soros has a major financial stake in Petrobras.
