Follow the money...

The "Green Movement" decries the oil industry and profiteering. Of course, the "Green Movement" stands to profit from "global warming" via the growth of "green industries."

On a similar subject, this from Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit:

AND YET, THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING IS “MORE REGULATION:” Govt. Regulators Gave BP A Pass. “The Interior Department exempted BP’s calamitous Gulf of Mexico drilling operation from a detailed environmental impact analysis last year, according to government documents, after three reviews of the area concluded that a massive oil spill was unlikely.” Hmm. Who was President “last year?”

UPDATE: Related: Politico: Obama Top Recipient of BP Cash. “BP and its employees have given more than $3.5 million to federal candidates over the past 20 years, with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.”

Is it that simple? Whose "reviews" concluded a massive oil spill was unlikely?
