It's the way that Obama is emphasising "British Petroleum". IE making straight out who is to blame and the feeling is he is emphasising the British part, ie it ain't American responsibility at all. BP hasn't been called British Petroleum for years.
There was a US senator on British TV today and he wasn't too happy with the language used by Obama either as it is having the effect of alientating some of us Brits. Also there is speculation here that it serves Obama politically as he can play the big strong man. He just looks stupid. Geez even Bush didn't shoot his mouth off like Obama is at the moment. What gets me is that Obama and some of his cronies want BP to not only pay compensation to the families of the oil workers and the people on the the gulf coast who are being affected, but also pay compensation to all the oil workers whose rigs in the gulf have been shut down due to this. Now isn't that just a bit too much that last one?
