How is the American taxpayer on the hook? Don't you think BP will be paying?

Does it somehow strengthen your argument to continually label what I post as "right-wing"? I think that is simply your version of the old ad hominum, which we all know means you have no cogent argument.

I don't mind debating, but, frankly, I don't see how your critique moves the argument anywhere.
