No, but you did manage to both completely miss the point and be needlessly obnoxious at the same time. No one in this thread - not me, not Joe Barton - thinks BP should not be liable for all the damage they’ve caused through clear negligence. What Barton apologized for - and what I also regret - is that populist anger and political theater were harnessed to circumvent important institutions such as the rule of law and due process.
No, pretty sure I got your point. I was just tickled that you got up on your high horse over something that popped up on your tumblr feed so I decided to join in!
In case you couldn’t tell, I wasn’t at all trying to directly address your points at all! and yet here we are.
I’m honestly surprised you take anything I say to you online seriously anymore.
