The Issue

BP is actually trying to paint themselves as the real victim of their massive oil spill. They underestimated the damage they inflicted on the Gulf, and now they're trying to backpedal out of the oil spill settlement agreement their own corporate lawyers wrote.

BP is blaming the Judge. BP is blaming the claims administrator. BP is blaming the accountants. BP is blaming the lawyers. Worse, BP is blaming the people and businesses of the Gulf. According to BP, the innocent party is BP itself.

Tell BP to stop the backpedaling and live up to their agreement.
