Hooray for BP...

There's no question that it's BP's accident and they're responsible for the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. There is no argument that BP must pay for all the damage, lost income and wages as well as cleanup and other related items.
However, Obama in his arbitrary decision to put a moratorium on all drilling and that BP must pay the laid off workers was beyond his authority. This is not a dictatorship and we have a Congress that decides these things.
Today, BP stood up to Obama and said that they refuse to pay workers that are laid off because of Obama's decision. In addition, the other oil companies are going to court to have the moratorium lifted as there is no reason for this.
No matter how much we try to take care and prevent problems, it's just "Murphy's Law" that eventually accidents do and will happen. This is not to forgive these accidents and the responsible parties, but for our President to make a decision without any basis and without presenting it to Congress is unconscionable. He is wild with power...what's he going to do next ?
