BP wants to stop paying Gulf oil spill victims
   
Highlights from the article:
of teh 20 billion BP said it had "set aside for compensation" it has so far spent....4.5 billion.
And NOW BP wants to stop paying most people affected by the massive 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill for potential future damages because the region has recovered, a document released Friday said.

The tourism industry is booming, all federal fishing grounds have reopened, and the shrimp catch has been plentiful, BP said.

Yeah trying to not shell out money for people who will be attempting fraud is a con job. 
Then again these people believe that not raising taxes is theft from the poor.

Where is Kapitan Kickass on this?

Didn't the Kommunity organizer already extort $20 billion out of BP?

Yet another fail in the failed regime of B. Heusein Obama.

I heard that there are still a lot of unemployed workers on the gulf coast.  You know, the ones whose jobs are gone because of the continuing moratorium on drilling .

I was going to say, the money went from BP to the government, did it not?  So basically what the DUmmies are complaining about is that the GOVERNMENT won't pay any claims.

Got it.

BINGO!

In short, the BP money is being doled out in the most unpolitical connected way by one of the most political administrations in our nation's history, if not the most. The most transparent and unpolitical administration in our history has also all but killed the oil industry in the gulf.

But remember this is NOT have any fingerprints of the impostor in the WH.

The problem is . . . the public knows exactly whose fingerprints are all over it.

Hint for lurkers:  it ain't BP's.
