Rep. Joe Barton apologizes to BP chairman Tony Hayward for "shakedown"

June 17, 2010 - Rep. Joe Barton apologizes to BP chairman Tony Hayward for "shakedown" by White House. Editors note: Joe Barton is an apologist for the managerial class that Tony Hayward represents. He hates workers, will not care if the Gulf workers suffer, get paid, or die. He does not live along the Gulf of Mexico and could care less about people losing their livelihood. It is more important to politically posture and shift the blame. He ignores that companies like BP, Exxon and Dow ignored their responsibilities in past catastrophes.
