There may be fault all around, all the players had a part in it, but its the responsibility of bp to make sure all operations are up to snuff.

but this was an accident and blame doesnt clean anything up. only money will clean some of it up...

Let bp sue halliburton and transocean and the oil after its cleaned up to recoup any costs they want...



So what you're saying is if you use something and it breaks, whether you're responsible for it breaking or not, you're always responsible for it breaking?
I'm not saying BP isn't responsible; I'm advocating for a fair and equal distribution of blame and cleanup responsibility.
