It's so nice to see FOX keeping it real.

Far-right candidates like bachmann would hand Obama 42 states in 2012.

Utter non sense.Obama is the farthest left candidate ever.If you have an economy that is wrecked and a president that is despised extremists can win.Reagan won in a landslide because Carter wrecked the country.Obama won because Bush wrecked the country.And womever runs in 2012 will be running against a man that has dismantled America.

I think I take this a little differently. I agree with both sides in the sense that for O'Reily, I agree with his point that if BP is criminally at fault, they need to be jailed, or the threat put upon them to do the right thing. On Bachmann's point, I agree with her side as well. I think the way Obama may have done it was by going at BP in the "Chicago Way". Shake downs and strong arming. The final outcome is investors, who had NO DECISION in the way this rig was operating, took it in the waazoo for this $20B fund. As usual.... the guy that does the right thing, invest, takes it hard and dry.

I think you're late to the party. O'Reilly does this to his guests, no matter who they are. Funny how you weren't posting clips from The Factor, when he was grilling Obama like a slab of ribs at a summer barbecue.

That's capitalism for you: You fuck up, you pay.

No one said investing was a safe bet. I mean, it's on BP's prospectus for peace sake: "Risk" and "you may lose your investment in BP".

Me, frankly, do not give a shit about BP's shareholders (only 14% of which are US individuals by the way, the rest are either institutional investors or foreigners). You play the game, expect to get burned.

In fact, it is a good sign that the market is working (somewhat).
