“Can BP Ever Get It Right?” While musing on this question, the New York Times asserts BP is a “feckless outfit” with “shaky credibility” that is ill prepared to cope with the Gulf oil disaster. Based on “serial failures,” the answer is obvious. BP “clearly can’t be trusted to figure out what is needed on its own.”

Bernie Madoff is serving 150 years in prison for defrauding investors of billions in the world’s biggest Ponzi scheme. According to his prison mates, Madoff isn’t feeling sorry for what he did or those he wronged. Madoff is reported as saying, “F–k my victims…. I carried them for 20 years, and now I’m doing 150 years.” He told others his clients were “rich and greedy and wanted more,” and that his only crime was taking their money.
