Obama Insists He's Been 100% Focused On Oil Disaster, But...

It's tough for Obama to get everything done. He's pulled in so many different directions. He's got fund raisers to attend, golf to play and vacations to enjoy. Yet he insists, he's been 100% focused on the oil rig explosion and its aftermath. Funny thing, this report from The Hill insists otherwise:

Chief Deputy Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) relayed a story Thursday morning at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast bolstering House Minority Leader John Boehner's (R-Ohio) charge of negligence on the part of the White House in the Gulf oil spill cleanup. 

Asked if this was the president's Hurricane Katrina, McCarthy responded, "It very well could be." 

He explained that Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.), who represents the district in which the BP explosion occurred, said he tried reaching the president last Thursday to discuss possible solutions. 

“He was called back by a staffer on Friday who said that the president was too busy to talk to him. He understood that until I turned on the TV and saw that he was golfing and went out to California to do a fundraiser. He said — six days now and he’s never even spoken to him," McCarthy said.

I think that pretty much says it all doesn't it.

Yeah, he's working hard isn't he. He needs his golf and vacations. He's got to stay fresh.

Can we impeach him yet?
If I don't do my job, I get fired. Same rules should apply.

The worst part is his golf game sucks. You'd think at least he might get that right, since he's such an athlete and all (i.e. 38 in bowling, throws baseball like a girl, smokes Kools.....all trademarks of a great athlete). His clubhead speed couldn't dent a marshmellow. I'd bet my car Bush 41 could beat him for 18 holes, but I'd have to referee to monitor the cheating.

I don't know if he has been focused on the oil disaster, but I do know the American people have been focused on the presidential disaster.
