James Carville To Obama On Oil Spill: 'Get Down Here And Take Control... We're About To Die'

James Carville To Obama On Oil Spill: 'Get Down Here And Take Control... We're About To Die':

"Democratic strategist and New Orleans resident James Carville is not relenting from his frenzied plea for President Obama to take a more direct and active role in addressing the Gulf oil blowout.

'The President of the United States could've come down here, he could've been involved with the families of these 11 people' who died on the rig after an explosion, Carville said on ABC's Good Morning America. 'He could be commandeering tankers and making BP bring tankers in and clean this up. They could be deploying people to the coast right now. He could be with the Corps of Engineers and the Coast Guard...doing something about these regulations. These people are crying, they're begging for something down here, and it just looks like he's not involved in this.'

His voice rising, Carville cried out, 'Man, you got to get down here and take control of this! Put somebody in charge of this thing and get this moving! We're about to die down here!'"
