Obama's Gulf War –
Caps For Relief Wells
Being drilled against Joe Barton's better judgement

Can Cameron build enough tight-fitting caps
For each of the deepwater wells being drilled,
Including some extras for BP's relief wells,
So they won't contribute to what's being spilled?

BP's reputation does not augur well
For relief well success and for lifting the ban.
But don't you know Joe will say that he's sorry
And claim drilling "them wells" wasn't part of his plan.

Of course being Texan, Joe's thinking bigger.
Trouble is Barton never figured on leaks,
Nor that building just one of "them tight-fitting caps"
For BP would take Cameron damn close to ten weeks.

So it's "Obama's fault" that Ken never ordered
More tight-fitting caps, which Joe would have done
Had he been in charge of Gulf deepwater drilling
And loving the view from his own Air Force One.
