The reaction is suspect considering the party in power right now supposedly cares about the environment and the 'little guy'.

Unless the current administration owes such large corporations...

We either have an incredibly incompetent administration in power OR we have one bought and paid for by large corporate interests...

Some how I have trouble remembering a company that lobbied to remove murderers from jail to further their own interests, maybe you have some examples.

We have an incompetent administration, they were released from a Prison in Scotland. I am missing the connection?

United Fruit Company in Central America actually toppled a government.

Slightly different but still a corrupt company, they received help from US with the threat of "communism". Seemed like thir favorite excuse for invasions the last century in Asia, Central and South America.

Interesting article how Tony Hayward came to be, since he also resigned I assume he will lost quite a bit of money.

Previous CEO changed to logo the logo to the sunburst and came up with the phrase "beyond petroleum".
