You blind followers certainly know best, but did not His Highness Clueless just asked congress to give him another $50b for “jobs”, after the $1 trillion job stimulus? Do you know how many zeros?
How about his request for covering his behind for medicare due to his healthcare?
You think he could not get the mere $20b to save all the jobs and businesses in the gulf? Or does poor, less-educated, God and gun clinging have anything to do with it?

jhw539: “Obama has not yet added $4 trillion to the deficit, but that’s just a mild matter of documented reality disagreeing with your exaggeration.”
Nope, not yet, but the debt tsunami on the way will make $4 TRILLION look like chump change.
When Obama took office, the US National Debt stood at $10.626 TRILLION.
The US National Debt is $13.086 TRILLION now.
The US National Debt will be $19 TRILLION by 2015.
The US National Debt will be $24 TRILLION by 2020.
The CURRENT US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is only $14.4 TRILLION.
$13 TRILLION is an UNIMAGINABLE amount of money; in the next 9.5 years, it will be almost DOUBLE the current amount.
It would take the profit from ALL of the Fortune 500 companies 147 YEARS to pay the CURRENT US National Debt of $13 TRILLION down to ZERO (not including compounding interest).
“Like Any Cash-Strapped Family, We Will Work Within A Budget To Invest In What We Need And Sacrifice What We Don’t … That’s How Budgeting Works.” – President Barack Obama, Remarks In State Of The Union Address, U.S. Capitol, 1/27/10
The numbers above tell us Obama obviously knows how budgeting works. I’m sure he’ll take out that scalpel any moment now. Trust him. He’s been so truthful up to now.

Mr. 0bama should set up $20b (a tiny drop of his $4T deficit) from his government to help the gulf region immediately, including cleaning up the oil spill and compensation for the fishermen and business. Then, he could order his Attorney General to do some real thing, to get BP pay back the money that the government spent.

Except for the fact that the Executive branch has no power to do such a thing. Blame those stupid Founding Fathers who gave Congress the power of the purse.
PS Obama has not yet added $4 trillion to the deficit, but that’s just a mild matter of documented reality disagreeing with your exaggeration.

President Obama said Monday that federal officials are “gathering up facts” to help ensure that embattled oil giant BP fairly compensates people and businesses…
=====
Mr. 0bama still has a long way to learn from this true communist – It’s not “Revolution We Can Believe In”, nor “Power Comes From Barrel of the Gun” of the government to threat a private company BP, which can file for bankruptcy any time and leave nothing, the 0 for O.
If Mr. 0bama truly wanted to help the people and business in the gulf, he should stop talking about ensuring BP to pay for it. By the time BP pays, there will be nobody left in the gulf region to collect the money.
Mr. 0bama should set up $20b (a tiny drop of his $4T deficit) from his government to help the gulf region immediately, including cleaning up the oil spill and compensation for the fishermen and business. Then, he could order his Attorney General to do some real thing, to get BP pay back the money that the government spent.
No more phony meetings and pretend to care.
This Communist Dictator would have done it 50 days ago. Mr. 0bama is 53 days too late.
