Mary Landrieu Is Really Awful

One of the leading apologists for BP has the nerve to evaluate the president's response.

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) says President Barack Obama will pay a political price his lack of visibility in the Gulf region during the catastrophic BP oil spill.

“The president has not been as visible as he should have been on this, and he’s going to pay a political price for it unfortunately,” Landrieu told POLITICO. “But he’s going down tomorrow, he’s made some good announcements today, and if he personally steps up his activity I think that would be very helpful.”

That's rich. He'll pay a price, but shilling for BP is a-okay, right?
