overwhelmed

I catch myself thinking about things to talk about on this site and sometimes it seems overwhelming. I'll try to keep it to one topic at a time.
We have the oil leak in the gulf thats been going on for what, almost two months? Nobody in charge seems to know what to do. The POTUS is blaming BP for not doing enough and BP claims they aren't getting any help from the government. There seems to be plenty of offers to help from all over the world. Some of them have good ideas for stopping the leak and cleaning up the mess in the water before it gets to the beach. However, nobody is accepting the offers. Now, I'm not an expert but you would think the cost to BP is going to be hugh and a little more spent on something else would be worth a try.
You know what I think part of the problem is, NOBODY wants to be in charge.
