Obama's Gulf War –
Salazar's Motives
Political? Financial? Geographical?

What were Salazar's motives for promoting the chaos?
Some deep seated hatreds for the Oil status quo?
Would insider trading and greed be sufficient?
Was the SEC willing to deal the deathblow?

BP's are the bad guys as ev'ryone knows,
Except for a few diehard drill baby drillers,
And BP investors who gambled and lost,
Who are learning their drillers are spillers and killers.

Casinos don't guarantee ev'ryone wins,
Not even if you're the crook cooking the books,
As Bear Stearns and Lehman and Bernie discovered.
Like Enron, BP's not as safe as it looks.

BP lost control weeks before its well blew.
Was that why their CEO sold when he did?
Was Goldman tipped off to also jump ship?
Does it pay to suspect a well's blowing its lid?

How did Ken know that the big guns would think so?
We know some who sold, but not who has sold short.
That's where the really big money is made
For moves out of DC to Kennebunkport.
