As for Tony's day off, leave him alone. Pretty sure Bush took time off to shoot some golf just as American troops were heading in to Afghanistan. Then again I suppose, by the grace of God, he wasn't an evil Brit, out to destroy everything good about the world. Who knows, Maybe BP did this deliberately, perhaps it was a conspiracy? Seriously though, lets drop this anti-British rhetoric, it's unnecessary and it just perpetuates the concept that many people around the world already view, that some, yes note "some" Americans refuse to acknowledge that there great nation can be responsibly for any ills in the world and that when ever things go wrong, they look for the easiest get out, that get out this time just happens to be a company with the word "British" in its name.
Yes, BP is undeniably responsible for this catastrophe, but the refusal to re-asses your use of oil and the methods your nation goes to when securing oil just shows sheer arrogance on your part. "Drill baby, drill".
