Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., blamed the Bush administration for any lack of oversight leading up to the Gulf oil spill. The Obama administration, on the other hand, is blameless.The "blameless" Obama administration felt it necessary to have BP bus in 400 temporary workers to clean up the beach before Obama could walk along it and "discover" tar balls in the sand. What wasn't mentioned was that it's always possible to find tar balls on Gulf Coast beaches just because of natural seepage from the ocean floor. It doesn't take a oil spill to make that happen.
“Many of the people appointed in the Bush administration are still burrowed in the agencies that are supposed to oversee the [oil] industry,” Pelosi said when asked if Democrats could have prevented or mitigated the crisis by keeping a closer watch on the industry.Added the Speaker, “the cozy relationships between the Bush administration’s agency leadership and the industry is clear…I’ve heard no complaints from my members about the way the president has handled it,” Pelosi stated.On Friday, the Washington Examiner requested that Speaker Pelosi’s office release the list of Bush appointees to whom she was referring. We’ll let you know when we hear back.

"I’ve heard no complaints from my members about the way the president has handled it,” Pelosi stated, reporting upon the role-playing/make believe game she indulges each day before her mirror during the two hours she schedules for applying her make-up.
Could you please post a link to support your statement that the Obama administration had BP bus in those 400 workers? I've not seen anyone claim that; on the contrary, that decision appears to have been BP's decision alone. Thanks.
