Wow, he personally gave the award? I was not aware of that. I thought it might have been the incompetent MMS.



Obama has received a total of $77,000 from BP over his entire political career. Yes, he's number one, but only by a few thousand dollars. Number two, Republican Rep. Don Young of the oil-intensive Alaska delegation, has received almost as much as Obama, raking in $73,300.Why did Obama give BP a safety award when BP had the most safety violations of all the oil companies?Well since BP was just a FINALIST for an award...which was not given...I'd say you are sadly mis-informed. Why do cons think they can just repeat a lie and make it true?



"BP, now under federal scrutiny because of its role in the deadly Gulf of Mexico explosion and oil spill, is one of three finalists for a federal award honoring offshore oil companies for "outstanding safety and pollution prevention."



The winner of the award - chosen before the April 20 oil rig incident - was to be announced this coming Monday at a luncheon in Houston. But the U.S. Department of Interior this week postponed the awards ceremony, saying it needs to devote its resources to the ongoing situation resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion and fire."

I believe that award was voted on before the spill, and I also believe it was an industry award, voted on by others in the oil business. And I am no Obama fan.Why did Obama give BP a safety award when BP had the most safety violations of all the oil companies?That's a good lie. The federal government doesn't give safety awards to anyone. That's just a waste of time and tax payers money.Why did Obama give BP a safety award when BP had the most safety violations of all the oil companies?
Wow lucky for Obama the spill happened before he gave the award. but they were scheduled to get it. I'm sure obama will reward them somehow for their assistance in helping him push his cap and trade down our throats
Because gov't and corporations are in bed together ! My question to libs : Why do you bend over forward for gov't when they are just as sleazy as corps ?Why did Obama give BP a safety award when BP had the most safety violations of all the oil companies?
