Is there a link to that story?
I do recall that the Obama Administration offered to help BP right after the initial incident and BP turned them down. Probably Washington should have insisted on getting involved from day one.
There is plenty of blame to go around, but lets not lose focus of the fact that BP committed the acts. Just because the past three administrations, including this one, turned their heads when it came to regulations, doesn't mean they hold all the blame. They told them they could have the gun, but BP pulled the trigger.
