    Wow, you made a really huge leap there.

    I'd also suggest to you, Steve, that if BP didn't think the deal was fair, they can go to court. They really CAN. So, what ISN'T fair when you've got and offer, and acceptance of that offer??
    Here's the thing, I'm all for BP taking care of the whole stinkin' mess. I'm not fond of my government being a bunch of domestic jackbooted thugs looking for whose a$$ to kick, particularly while genuflecting to dictators and apologizing for America.

    All Fox News talking points rolled up into one post, cool!

    Of course the fact that it's an escrow fund shouldn't enter into your EXTORTION!!!!!!! debates.

    Pretty cool that FNC gets its talking points from me, eh?

    And that changes it how?

    P.S. Here's another valid reason the Obots should back their boots off a tad, 'Reasonably high' chance BP files for bankruptcy.

    Peter S. Kaufman, the President of investment bank Gordian Group and head of the firm's Restructuring and Distressed M&A practice, told me that if he had BP's ear, "I'd advise them to explore the option of bankruptcy." If he had the government's ear, he'd tell them to stop berating the company to the point where BP would find it appealing to use bankruptcy to limit its liabilities..

    "My administration is the only thing standing between you and the pitchforks,''

    As I recall ,private investors suddenly got very interested in recapitalizing the zombies.
