Perhaps we have been too hard on BP. The oil spill snafu has interfered with the wealthy high life of the BP CEO

What's wrong with that? I'm sure he'd rather things be normal again.

I guess I can't feel sorry for him especially in a few months when millions of Americans will be crying for their lives back.

The BP CEO needs to keep his whining private!

Sorry, I have no sympathy for someone who has consistently downplayed not only the amount of oil leaking from his well, but also the devastating effects to our coastline, wildlife, sealife, and people's livelihoods. He can bug off.

Didn't sound like whining to me. He said he wanted this thing to be over so things can get back to normal.

A perfectly normal, rational and expected thought.

Unless you are suggesting this has been fun for him???

Nothing more than another poster whining about someone wealthy. End of story.

Yep. It's a crime to be wealthy anymore.

They act like BP doesn't care. Just some evil rich company. LOLs.

No not at all! Perhaps we should collect donations for him or have a bake sale to help the poor man.

Yes it is a crime to be wealthy when you prey on others to obtain that wealth!

According to two surviving crew members of the Deepwater Horizon, oil workers from the rig were held in seclusion on the open water for up to two days after the April 20 explosion, while attorneys attempted to convince them to sign legal documents stating that they were unharmed by the incident. The men claim that they were forbidden from having any contact with concerned loved ones during that time, and were told they would not be able to go home until they signed the documents they were presented with.

Do you have a "Eat the Rich" bumper sticker on the back of your car?

Too ignorant to even respond to.

Alleged and claimed?? Let me guess, these are the 2 that filed lawsuits within days of the event?
