Mr. President, you said you are in charge

Mr. President, for weeks after the oil spill you critizezed British Petroleum (BP) for incompetence. However, when it appeared that BP had a fix you made your famous speech stating your administration had been "in charge" from the moment it began and those that believed otherwise "don't know the facts."

Mr. President, if BP has been following your directions, you are culpable for all their failures.

Sir I have one question for you: What will you tell BP to do next?
