And I would rather be dead than live life like that.

In no way minimizing what these people are about to go through -- but this happens everywhere in this country, every single day. If people get put in terrible, stressful, spots and feel lost and want to check out and kill themselves or wish they were dead, that's their call. If they want to try to find a way to recover, that's their choice too.

But I can't envision a single scenario in which I would choose the former, and for as much as it may seem out of character for someone like me, I'm not exactly bursting at the seams with sympathy for people who do.

Just like I don't have sympathy for people who had ample time to get out of town.

All O'Dumbass cares about BP is how much money BP is going to give him for the 2012 elections. He could care less about these people's work going down the drain because of this oil spill. Its no secret that BP has given him a nice sum of money in the past. Lets put two and two together.

The irony in complaining about BP giving money to a Democrat, much less one who defeated the King of Oil is pretty cool.

the most disgusting part of this article is how much these slimebag politicians (not just Obama, all of them) waste for a Freaking election campaign.

800 million? disgusting
