"Take Punitive Action Against BP Now" Lt. Gen. Russell Honore
The government should immediately freeze BP's assets and start to charge the corporation -- say $100 million -- each day the oil flows. The money could be held in a fund that U.S. government draws on to take care of the people along the Gulf Coast and pay the states for doing the cleanup.

Next, BP and the government bureaucrats who broke a law and put the public at risk need to go to jail.

4.  Why does everyone make more sense than the WH?
This is an international disaster and it isn't being dealt with as such. This is beyond bizarre.
