[6/5/10] Obama's Choices

Regarding that undersea gusher that can't be stopped, Obama can
choose one of three lines:

1. Government can't fix everything.

Obviously, even though it's true, for a progressive social engineer,
this is a non-starter.

2. Some governments could fix this, but mine can't.

Unacceptable, since it's equivalent to "We are the screw-ups we have
been waiting for."

3. It's somebody else's fault.

This is really the only answer at which a Chicago political hack
could ever arrive. It's why Eric Holder is looking into criminal
charges. Since Bush officials are protected from prosecution by the
same immunity that covers all government officials, even his own
administration, British Petroleum managers must be found responsible,
charged, and prosecuted.
