    About five years ago, on April 2, 2010, the president rudely tempted Fate by claiming "It turns out, by the way, that oil rigs today generally don’t cause spills. They are technologically very advanced."

    A couple of weeks later, when the reckless, miserly inevitable, happened, he turned our federal government into a wholly-owned rent-a-cop subsidiary of BP in an astonishingly clear demonstration of who the president really works for.

    This risk analysis on turning the American arctic over to its real owners is admitting that, yes, the inevitable will happen again. And it will not be "a liter or so." Maybe by not tempting Fate so blindly, things'll work out better than last time. Then again, the Interior Department clearly doesn't care one way or the other. Why should it, when everything in the goddamn world belongs to BP shareholders anyway?

    Have you asked yourself, I'm curious, what's in it for you yet?
