As someone else (cowperson) has pointed out he has already called for BP to axe it's dividend (which I find appaling as a supporter of the free market). Really though, what can Obama do here? If the oil continues to spew it's not as though he has a solution that no one else knows about. I don't believe for a second that BP is holding back a solution either.

For one, shutting down all offshore drilling below the arctic circle doesn't help anybody.
It was more of my amazement of the media than a shot of Obama. Obama hasn't handled this badly but it's not perfect like some (very important) media is creaming it's pants over. When the media starts throwing words like flawless and perfect around, they're too bias.
Bush would have been flogged.
