What Took So Long?
The funny thing about all of this is the Left said the same about Bush in Katrina (What took so long?), but because the disaster was within a State's jurisdiction, the federal government legally could do nothing until the State asked for assistance, and the "then" Democrat led leadership of the State of Louisiana denied federal assistance early on.
However, the oil spill is in U.S. waters, so their was no legal obstacle holding back the federal government. Obama did not respond simply because he decided not to. . . other things, like parties, concerts, and games of golf, were more important to him, apparently.
Also, note that in both cases, the oil spill and Katrina, Mississippi is not in the news. This is because Mississippi, in each instance, took responsibility and acted quickly, and on her own.
