BP: Limitless gusher of fail

WDSU: BP buses in 400 workers to Grand Isle for President Obama's visit. To make it look like they're doing more cleanup work than is actually being done.

Hey BP, know what would be really good PR? Actually hiring 400 additional cleanup workers and cleaning up the mess way beyond any of our wildest expectations.

I can't see how it can't be in BP's best interests to dump its entire Q1 profits into the cleanup. Shareholders, I suppose. It takes a publicly-traded company to be this short-sighted.
