Obama's Gulf War –
Who Owns The Brits?
With inadequate oversight

BlackRock continues to let Lord Brownies boys
Ruin the Gulf and BlackRock's reputation.
It's the largest shareholder of British Petroleum,
But who's heard a "We're sorry our greed screwed the nation"?

BofA, too, owns a very large chunk
Of BlackRock and British Petroleum directly.
It's hard not to wonder, where sharks are concerned,
If that counts as 'a biting of hands circumspectly'.

Can't BlackRock cajole former Enron employees
To replace Brownie's boys when they get out of jail?
They, too, don't know baked beans about offshore drilling,
But who gives a damn if the check's in the mail?
