The British are coming!

In 1775 Paul Revere made his famous ride to warn of the advance of the British army. 226 years later the British are still on the attack, not with soldiers, but with oil. I guess they are finally getting even for losing the Revolutionary War. Yes British Petroleum has single handedly caused the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history. There's only one problem. The rig and safety equipment was American, and only 40% of the companies shares are owned by the U.K. So why does the President constantly refer to them as British Petroleum? I believe that since George Washington was immortalized by defeating the British in 1781, President Obama also wishes to establish his legacy by the defeat of British Petroleum. The difference is Washington was willing to give up his life for victory, while President Obama wouldn't even give up a round of golf. War is hell, especially if it delays tee off time.
