George Soros is a funder of the Center for American Progress headed by Obama’s transition team leader John Podesta. Podesta and his brother Tony have a lobbying group that represents BP. A Wall Street Journal article pointed out the the initial Obama administration’s responses to the oil spill were directed by the Center for American Progress. What’s next?

Our interior secretary plans to reinstate the offshore drilling moratorium struck down by a federal judge. But if deep-water drilling is so unsafe, why are we helping Brazil drill nearly three times as deep? And what about those Obama – Podesta – BP – Podesta – Soros connections?

By THOMAS SOWELL – In our times, American democracy is being dismantled, piece by piece, before our very eyes by the current administration in Washington, and few people seem to be concerned about it. The president’s poll numbers are going down because increasing numbers of people disagree with particular policies of his, but the damage being done to the fundamental structure of this nation goes far beyond particular counterproductive policies.

This is a great culmination of items we have been covering here for months. A great visual presentation of the unethical if not criminal relationships between George Soros, Center for American Progress, John Podesta, Tony Podesta, BP and Obama. A must watch even if you are not a fan of Glenn Beck.

David Asman at FOX News shows us the tip of the iceberg in the Obama, Soros Center for American Progress headed by John Podesta and BP represented by lobbyist Tony Podesta criminal trifecta.

BP remains one of the most active major western oil companies engaged in joint-venture energy projects with the Iranian Ministry of Petroleum outside of Iran. In the last five years, BP has begun extracting around 4 million cubic meters per day of natural gas from a field in Britain’s North Sea in a 50-50 joint venture with Iran, worth $1 million a day at June 15, 2010 spot prices.

In his first-ever address from the Oval Office on Tuesday night, President Barack Obama said he was going to “inform” the chairman of BP that he must surrender the company’s money to an independent party that will distribute it to people and businesses determined to have been harmed by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

While BP has resisted some government interventions, it has lobbied for tax hikes, greenhouse gas restraints, the stimulus bill, the Wall Street bailout, and subsidies for oil pipelines, solar panels, natural gas and biofuels.

Kerry’s cap and trade bill gets new allies in GE, BP, Conoco Philips, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Dupont. And it gets a new identity as the American Power Act. Will it fool the people?

The spill’s arrival coincides with the beginning of the Panhandle’s summer tourism season, which normally brings millions of dollars to the region.
