Unbelievable

You've got to be kidding me:
"I think the people responsible in the oil spill--BP and the federal government--should take full responsibility for what's happening there," Boehner said at his weekly press conference this morning.

Boehner's statement followed comments last Friday by US Chamber of Commerce CEO Tom Donohue who said he opposes efforts to stick BP, a member of the Chamber, with the bill. "It is generally not the practice of this country to change the laws after the game," he said. "Everybody is going to contribute to this clean up. We are all going to have to do it. We are going to have to get the money from the government and from the companies and we will figure out a way to do that."
Shameless doesn't even begin to cover it. We can't get the Republicans to vote for a fucking extension of unemployment benefits, but this asshole wants to sign up the federal government up for helping foot the tab in the Gulf.
