BP CEO Yachts, Obama Golfs. Who CARES!

This weekend saw America's current top villian, BP's CEO Tony Hayward, kicked back on his yacht and yucking it up with the international mega-ballers. Soon after, Republicans pointed out that President Obama went golfing Saturday.
Now it is incredible that Mr. Hayward had the nerve to be enjoying the life that most Gulf residents have only seen on Ralph Lauren Polo commercials. This man is a bumbling fool who seems to have a knack for saying the exact worst thing at every opportunity, and the world was still shocked at his frollicking.
Obama golfing? Not that big a deal, although it's another reason to wonder at the ineptitude of the political team in the White House (Rahm Emanuel). But I say, who gives a damn? I don't want Tony Hayward anywhere near the Gulf of Mexico. I want him as far away from oil as possible, even if it means he gets to live it up in luxury sailing around the Isle of Wight (for now, anyway).
Same goes for Obama. Stop going to the Gulf. People want to see clean beaches and some fish and shrimp, not a bunch of yada yada about how we'll build it better (Bush said the same thing after Katrina, but last I checked, IT AINT BETTER). People want to see you do big things, like punk BP for $20,000,000,000.
So Hayward, we suggest you stay on the other side of the pond until the oil stops gushing and you get your day in court. Obama, as long as you can get this shit cleaned up and make BP pay for all of it, relax, but get a new hobby, cause you seem mad nerdy.
