Will “drill, baby, drill” still be the Republicans’ slogan?

What has happened in the Gulf is a world disaster and we will all pay a huge price for the result of corporate greed. Millions of innocent animals and fish will die because of a stupid corporate mistake.

President Ronald Reagan was right — government is our enemy; let corporations regulate themselves. That is, until something like the oil spill happens. Now it is the president’s fault for not stepping in fast enough.

Reagan did all he could to deregulate any law that protected citizens. He was a corporate puppet. A great actor, yes, and a great president — to big corporations.
