The Wingnut Culture of Corporate Infallibility

Says the British Daily Mail:

President Obama was facing a growing backlash last night over the U.S. government's slow response to the oil spill disaster... Critics compared Mr Obama's belated attempts to contain the catastrophe to George W Bush's dithering over Hurricane Katrina.

Who are these critics? Smell a wingnut meme? Limp-baugh says the incident would be remembered as “Obama’s Katrina" (because he'd really like it to be).

But here's a funny thing... aren't the people equating the gulf oil spill to Katrina the same folks who'd still contend Bush did nothing wrong back in 2005? So wouldn't Obama be blameless too by their own logic? But I digress...

I appreciate corporations can do no wrong in Limp-baugh's eyes and Obama is bound by some absolute law of the cosmos to always be wrong. But wouldn't it behoove them to blame BP for their slow response to a disaster of their own making?

Partisan bias is one thing, but a point-blank refusal to criticize corporations for anything is a uniquely American psychosis.
