BP taps American CEO
The past week there were a number of articles across the web with headlines similar to the one listed above. Just what in God’s name is this supposed to mean? Does BP or their news cronies think everyone in the world is an idiot? This news is nothing but a trick played on American people – a feeble attempt to appeal to their goodness and hope, that somehow an American would take care of his own. For goodness sakes if there was even the slightest of such sentiments, don’t you think the fat cats at Wall Street would’ve taken the American public into consideration before they dragged Main Street into hell? At the end of the day do CEOs really care about the community they are in or the citzenry they is part of? No, because as we all know how these heartless top heads work – profit before people.
Does BP seriously think that replacing the existing CEO (Tony Hayward) with an American (Robert Dudley) would make the people forget the whole disaster. This is just an attempt at diverting attention from the critical facts – the fact that warning measures were turned off and/or never installed in the first place and serious lapses were allowed to occur continuously. The American people should not put up with such tactics and insults to their intelligence.
