I can’t believe he’s eating lunch while the oil spill is still happening.  Unbelievable, this guy.

Behind the State Department, Af/Pak is my biggest client.  I suppose I should be incredibly worried as to how today’s events will shape things for me at work, but really I’m just happy the Prez made the right choice.

President Obama has been described as “livid” the past few days and it showed at his address in the Rose Garden when discussing the Gulf oil spill.
Obama said he was “angry and frustrated” and doesn’t appreciate finger-pointing of oil execs. He said there was ”more than enough responsibility to go around and that includes the federal govt.”
Obama denounced “ridiculous spectacle” of BP, Transocean and Halliburton leveling blame at each other.
Obama reaffirmed that BP is responsible for the costs of plugging the leak and containing and cleaning up the spill - “not the taxpayers.”
Obama also said the government is at fault for too long tolerating a “cozy relationship” between regulators and the oil companies.
CBS News White House Correspondent Mark Knoller tweeted “I can’t recall a previous occasion on which Pres. Obama sounded as decidedly angry about an issue or development as he did today”

“Today, I called Polish Prime Minister Tusk to express Michelle’s and my deepest condolences to the people of Poland on the tragic deaths this morning of President Lech Kaczynski, First Lady Maria Kaczynski, and all who were traveling with them to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Kaczynski family, the loved ones of those killed in this tragic plane crash, and the Polish nation.

Today’s loss is devastating to Poland, to the United States, and to the world. President Kaczynski was a distinguished statesman who played a key role in the Solidarity movement, and he was widely admired in the United States as a leader dedicated to advancing freedom and human dignity. With him were many of Poland’s most distinguished civilian and military leaders who have helped to shape Poland’s inspiring democratic transformation. We join all the people of Poland in mourning their passing.

Today, there are heavy hearts across America. The United States cherishes its deep and abiding bonds with the people of Poland. Those bonds are represented in the strength of our alliance, the friendships among our people, and the extraordinary contributions of Polish-Americans who have helped to shape our nation.

It is a testament to the strength of the Polish people that those who were lost were travelling to commemorate a devastating massacre of World War II as the leaders of a strong, vibrant, and free Poland. That strength will ensure that Poland emerges from the depths of this unthinkable tragedy, and that the legacy of the leaders who died today will be a light that continues to guide Poland - and the world - in the direction of human progress.”

President BARACK OBAMA’s statement on the tragic death of Polish president Lech Kaczynski, his wife, and other members of the Polish government and military in a plane crash earlier today.

Our thoughts are with Poland today.
