This really says it all about today’s Republican Party, or at least the Big Oil wing of said party. Defending the foreign oil company that is, at this moment, ruining the Gulf of Mexico? Maybe GOP stands for “Greedy Oil People?”
P.S. Oh, and for any trolls who come on here and try to claim that the comments by Barton, Bachmann, Barbour et al. were aberrations or whatever, read this: “everybody knows the only reason Republicans want him to apologize is to put out a political fire. In fact, many if not most of them actually agree with Barton.”
UPDATE: Also, see this from the “Republican Study Commission.”
