Barack Obama is out in Louisiana on a political fishing expedition determined to kick some ass to blame someone and go after some big fish involved in the B.P. Oil Spill area. (Don't pay any attention to those people in the back of the picture who are trying to wade around and clean up their city) Looks like Barack got a good size big mouth bass though! (Great Photo OP!)

Hmnn....... Is this a way to create more jobs? Or payback? By the way, there is no way that the United States has all the technical skill, maritime ships, equipment or people trained to handle this huge spill by itself. Again, Obama is showing his lacking Community Organizer's management skills to handle real world problems.
F.Y.I. on the Jones Act:
Section 27, also known as the Jones Act, deals with cabotage (i.e., coastal shipping) and requires that all goods transported by water between U.S. ports be carried in U.S.-flag ships, constructed in the United States, owned by U.S. citizens, and crewed by U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents. The purpose of the law is to support the U.S. merchant marine industry, but agricultural interests generally oppose it because, they contend, it raises the cost of shipping their goods, making them less competitive with foreign sources.
