In the weeks immediately following the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon oil platform on April 20, 2010, Conservative pundits quickly tried to minimize the amount of damage we could expect from all that oil washing ashore, comparing it to "natural seepage" from the ocean floor. Then the oil started washing ashore, and suddenly this was "Obama's Katrina".
By the Conservative's own standards, this was a minor event from the very beginning, and yet they are is quick to criticize President Obama for not recognizing the pending disaster as soon as it happened and being "too slow to respond" (which is another lie I disprove in the video).
This took me all day to edit, so be kind in your comments. :)
