BP chief to Gulf residents: 'I'm sorry'
May 30, 2010

(CNN) -- BP's CEO said Sunday he's sorry for the largest oil spill in U.S. history and the "massive disruption" it has caused the Gulf Coast, telling reporters the company hopes to corral most of the crude offshore.

"The first thing to say is I'm sorry," Tony Hayward said when asked what he would tell people in Louisiana, where heavy oil has already reached parts of the state's southeastern marshes.

"We're sorry for the massive disruption it's caused their lives. There's no one who wants this over more than I do. I would like my life back."

Hayward said the company is doing "everything we can to contain the oil offshore," but, "as far as I'm concerned, a cup of oil on the beach is a failure." ...

ings?

What, the one where his company profited billions while ignoring safety regulations?

Exactly!

scotch because it's such hard work being an incompetent jackass.

that have been changed forever?

I pick up the dog shit in my yard. I wouldn't touch Tony Hayward with snake tongs.




TG

The PR guy has told him over and over again to say sorry.

He wants HIS life back???!!

Asswipe. Hope he spends hell drowning in boiling oil for all eternity.

"Asswipe. Hope he spends hell drowning in boiling oil for all eternity."

Too little, too late.

This has been so very hard on Tony. He would like his life back. And now, motherfuckers. So quit holding him and his company responsible. And stuff. God, just get over it, already. "Ooh, my job just got covered in sticky black oil and tar balls!" Stinkin' whiners. I'll bet none of you quite appreciate how this whole affair has almost completely ruined the taste of Tony's third gin and tonic at lunch.

of what they were previously!!! A Fucking QUARTER!!
Leave them alone you vultures...Haven't they
suffered enough???

:sarcasm:

Now how about you go jump off a cliff!!

:mad:

He "would like his life back." That is why he wants this to be over.

Guess this has been quite an inconvenience for him.

the people affected by your companies disaster, and that might be a good start to believing your apology!

"everything we can to contain the oil offshore". See that's the problem Tony. You don't have a clue. All you think about is containing that oil so you can recoup it.

How about CLEANING your mess? How about PAYING ten times their annual salaray to ALL the victims who just lost their livelyhood so they have a chance to survive?

All you care about it your life and your embarrassment.

You'll never get your life back. You, your entire Board of Directors and all your company officers should be lined up and shot.

in his corporation, from BPs shareholders, and from everything on this planet that depends on the natural resources BP exploited.

His "old life" was revolting and exploitative.

BP deserves a corporate death penalty, with all of its profits/assets seized to pay for the damages.

ETA: Plus those in charge should face CRIMINAL charges and hopefully rot in jail for the rest of their lives.

All the same, he would probably like to get that back, too.

...if all of his assets were seized, and he were locked up for about twenty to thirty years. Until that happens (extremely unlikely, I know), the only thing he's sorry about is the disruption to his "life."

way way too late

Some Louisiana residents and fishermen disagree.

"Don't be so mean to rich people" posters. I guess there's no way to really spin this guy to us proles.
