"... seven North Dakota oil companies recently charged in federal court with the deaths of 28 migratory birds.The birds allegedly landed in oil waste pits in western North Dakota last spring; the maximum penalty for each charge under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act is six months in prison and a $15,000 fine, the AP said."
"... wind-power companies are responsible for more than 400,000 bird deaths annually, and not one has faced a single charge?"

I completely overlooked the possibility that the President might have been personally responsible for killing the birds and then suing the oil company heroes for it. After all, according to the Tea Partier comments I've read on all the mainstream media news articles without exception, Obama and "*******s" are responsible for crocodile sightings in Chicago, the flooding in the Eastern part of the US, an invasion of biting ants in Texas, and the delay in the Second Coming of Christ.
Who'd a thunk a few years ago that he would turn out to be responsible for every bad thing that happens in the world?
Like so many other things the libs say are their moral obligations, when they aren't convenient they go out the window. The EPA becomes another taxing arm of the govt.
Smoking is bad for people but lets legalize drugs
We have too many bullies in the country but lets ostracize fat people
Republicans are racist and Cain is an Uncle Tom
Republicans hate minorities and are against illegal immigration but who cares about the unemployment rates for blacks.
The list goes on and on. They seem incapable of thinking things through and when the mess is piled at their feet they will find someone else to blame.
Coming from a political party that stil believes the only answer to economic woes ever are tax cuts, and that giving the tax breaks to rich people actually trickles down this creating jobs, that's trully rich.

Perhaps you should read the post again?
Obama is personally responsible? Really?
Must have attended the same reading and language comprehension course as Eric Holder.
Obama has bypassed legislators with his regulatory czars who are running amuck with regulations that characterize a fringe perspective.
In the light of recent dealings with Fast and Furious and Solyndra where the actions of the administration challenge the edge of common sense and verge on felonies, the motives for many of the decisions made by Obama and his regulatory czars is the stuff of wonder and mystery.
Who would allow firearms to be sold to drug dealers and never attempt to trace them?
Who would think it was a good idea in retrospect to have invested half a billion$$ in a company that was known to be on the verge of failing?
Who would ignore environmental impact studies that had to show birds would be killed by the thousands and then mete out unequal justice favoring one industry over the other?
Who would modify legislation, owned by Chris Dodd, at the very midnight hour to ensure AIG execs would be guaranteed their bonuses which then became the lightening rod to attack the greedy and set of a strategy of class warfare? In this case a bewildered Dodd fianllly admitted it was Gietner's treasury dept who made the change he knew nothing about. Soon after Dodd left office.
To gather information and not consider it critically, is the essence of public education that simply requires regurgitation. To have read and listened to the mainstream media does not imply any thought process is taking place.
And yes, like GWB, Obama is responsible for just about everything from floods to earthquakes. Maybe we'll cut him a break and just hold him responsible for destroying the US economy?
