And you know that.
I would agree with you, though I'd separate out two types of blame. There is the "why aren't you doing more to clean up this spill" cry, which I agree is something that isn't really ideologically driven (or shouldn't be) but then there is the question of "why wasn't more done to keep this from happening in the first place". Environmental and safety regulations are trying to keep these things from happening in the first place and having a plan already in place to deal with them if an accident does happen. Those sorts of government involvements are, in my opinion, far more useful and also stridently opposed by many Republicans. Of course there is blame to go around on that side as well, particularly Democrats cozy with oil companies like Landrieu.
