Also, I like to bash Obama just to bash him. I bash G.W. Bush too but Obama makes it too fun!

"Since Day one"
"plug the dam hole"
"kick some ass"
This sounds immature.

Please, G.A.L.!

Those "experts" have said that they told them not to stop drilling on those holes because to stop in the middle of the job may allow the weakened holes to "blow" one day in the future. In other words, you have started a job and to stop that job in midplace is not very smart.

Now why did Obama and Salazar go after expert opinion and then avoid it completely? I say it is because Obama and his people are not stupid but have found a way to advance their program through this disaster and they are very willing to have it be as serious as possible to use it to get their programs, like Cap and Trade, stuck up us while those who support them are willing to have just that happen. I don't know who all is behind this man but they are taking us down a path to something that most of the wildest progs here will be against once they see that we have been had. When is too late?
Not to mention that if they are ordered to stop drilling, the companies will lose money, so they will pull out the drill rigs and move to Brazil or Africa, to drill there. Thousands of jobs will be lost in LA, and it will be years before the drilling companies return to the Gulf of Mexico.
