The Oil Spill Address Obama Should Have Given

Rachel Madow gave the "presidential address" that she wishes -- that I wish -- President Obama had given instead of the one he actually gave last week on the topic of the BP oil spill.  It is hard-hitting, but is also filled with basic common sense.  As I have alluded, the president failed us last week.  He punted instead of truly taking charge and ramming that which is right down the throats of those who are at odds with the good of the Nation and the well-being of the American people.  President Obama keeps being handed a raw deal, but instead of turning lemons into lemonade, he mixes lemon drop martinis for the rich and powerful.  It is business as usual.  And it is very, very sad.
