The title on that is actually wrong, Joe Barton was forced to take it back,
to apologize for apologizing even by his own party. Here is Biden's response.


He took almost as much BP cash as Obama. Obama biggest recipient of BP cash

"Obama's smart enough not to apologize outright. He'll just give BP a backdoor
bailout of paying out $20 billion (a couple of quarters of pensioner's dividends)
for a trillion dollar cleanup. Taxpayer will pick up the rest, even if BP has
to go Ch. 11".

He thinks the Attorney General can fix the problem, as if they are beyond
corporate influence. I think the only way to fix the problem is to get
rid of the whole rotten mess and replace it with volunteers and Internet voting.
