A note to David Axelrod, David Plouffe, Bill Burton, and Jon Favreau!
With all due respect, what the fuck are you guys doing? You guys are the dumbest smart people I have ever seen!! You are supposed to be the eyes and ears of Barack Obama, and you are all failing him terribly!!
OMG!! Its like you are all clueless, emotionless eggheads. I know that you are doing all you can to stop the oil, but from a public relations standpoint You all look totally removed from this gulf oil spill!
If this keeps up much longer, this oil spil could be the one thing that could destroy his re election in 2012!
Whoever is giving President Obama advice on public relations should be FUCKING fired!!!! Today!!! Not only about this, but starting with healthcare, to Fin Reform, to the Wars. The guy who is advising him should be FIRED!! (Rahm)
The President has got a lot done in 2 years, yet most of the country feels he hasn't acomplished anything!
We all realize now that the the spill will now most likely last until August, but if we can get the stuff out as it gets into the water, it would be the best help!
OK..How to fix this total PR mess in the Gulf right now, and show the nation he gets it!!! Not to mention fix this horrible spill!!
6 Things!
- Declare a national emergency and take control of BP and all of their equipment!! TODAY!! TODAY!!!!!!!! and declare a regional leader who everything goes through and set up a LOCAL command center for questions from the locals!! Then he can get local answers every night to make sure BP is doing what they said they would, and need to be doing!
- Have Obama tell the CEO of BP that he wants two or three supertankers in the gulf by those giant underwater plumes and tell them that he wants that oil sucked out faster then its coming in, and he doesn't care how much it costs, and BP is going to pay for it!!
Really put the boots on their necks!!
Even if it doesn't work or BP says that it isn't feasible, do it anyway to make it look like you are doing what you can!
Then hire an army of people to hit the beaches and marshes and clean every drop up! There is 10% unemployment. Im sure people will want to work!!
If BP gives you any shit, then tell them you are going to freeze up all permits for thier drilling wells until they do this and pay for it!!
Really get tough!!
- Hire ever ship captain who wants a job in LA, and get them in the water to sop up the oil with Hay or any other method that has been tried! Get as much boon as they can have come in. Have it over flow!! Again, all paid for by BP! Try every kooky idea possible to see if they work! Try everything possible because you never know whats going to work! At least you can really say that you tried everything!!
- Get an emergency spending bill of about 20 billion dollars and have the people of the gulf turn in W-2 forms from last year. What ever they made last year, the government will pay them immediately! Immediately!! Make them whole, and diffuse the anger! Then tell the public that when all of the law suits come up, BP will pay the government back in Taxes so that the people of the gulf can stay whole, and not have to wait 20 years to get paid by this country. If the Republicans try to stop it, fucking hammer them as un-American and not seeing that AMERICANS are hurting and need HELP in a time of need!!
BP is ultimately going to pay for it in taxes, yet we are going to lay it out!! We as a country can afford to wait to be paid, those people cant! get them relief now!!!
5!!!!!! And the biggest!!! Get the fucking President down there, and have him stay there for at least a week with his family and run business from there to make sure the people from BP are doing what they said they are doing. I mean to have him stay for 3 hours so he could go back to Chicago was a disaster, and just stupid! H should have stayed over night and had a good meal with the people, or had his family come down there for the holiday weekend! If it takes a few months, or 6 months! Have New Orleans be home for a while. Show that he cares and show emotion!!
Plouffe!! Where the fuck are you!!!
Let his family help with the clean up! PICTURES!!! PICTURES!!! PICTURES!!!
Give him a chance to meet the hard working people and hear their frustration!! Let him really understand what they are losing and why it is so important to them!!!
- I know he has a ton on his plate internationally this week, but this is a HUGE American problem! A Catastrophe!!! He has to give this the most attention!! The people of this country want to see that our president cares about us and our way of life!! Money shouldn't be a n issue!!
7)Announce that a thorough review of all rigs in the gulf will commence and that all blowout preventer will be checked, and have back ups!
Also that every rig that wants to drill in our waters will have a new extra relief well drilled right now if they want to continue drilling so that if this ever happens again, it will be stopped right away. They do this in Canada, and we should be doing this as well no matter how much it costs the company! It should be the law!!
Start a fund to develop new technologies to capture oil that will be paid for from a tax on oil companies so the next time this happens, we wont be using the same methods o clean up that didn't work in 1979, didn't work in 2010, and would never work!
You guys are close to him, you can get this to people who could do these things!
For some reason, you guys refuse to listen to your base who had all the energy to get him elected!! You guys don't seem to get it! I mean it seems so simple to me and everyone else!! That's why people are so mad! It seems so simple, yet he, and all around him, seems so clueless! So Removed!
Guys....I love you all, but you are fucking this up big time when it could be a great moment for you all!!! get on it, and if you do these 6 things, all the press and approval ratings on this shit will turn around!!! Not to mention the oil will be cleaned up!
