Some People Say There's Obama to Blame, But You Know, It's George Bush's Fault…

The honorary mayor for life of Margaritaville, Jimmy Buffett, weighs in on just who is responsible for the BP oil spill and lackadaisical government response:

Buffett, a supporter of President Barack Obama, said the roots of the spill lie with the administration of former President George Bush, which was often criticized for being too cozy with the petroleum industry.

"To me it was more about eight years of bad policy before (Obama) got there that let this happen. It was Dracula running the blood bank in terms of oil and leases," he said. "I think that has more to do with it than how the president reacted to it."

So have we gone from Dracula to Renfield playing Mr. Drysdale at the blood bank? More here.

Is it time for a little self-administered ass-kicking?
