Yes, you are correct, after all obama's boot on the neck of BP did the trick while he was trying to "help" Harry Reid keep his polls from falling in the black ho.
I think BP just is concerned about one thing. Business. If they claim credit for stopping the leak, they'll look better to consumers and people will stop protesting.
I'm thinking that's their philosophy although the people living in the Gulf will probably still protest.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
