BP's People

The Republican Study Committee, a group of conservative members of the House, released a statement yesterday calling the $20 billion BP escrow account a "Chicago Style Political Shakedown." Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) called it a redistribution of wealth, Haley Barbour is concerned it might cut into BP's profits, and Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) has has apologized to BP CEO Tony Hayward for the escrow account.

It was this kind of GOP sell out to big oil that caused this disaster in the first place. These Republicans may have been elected by the people but they're representing big oil.
