I think that Obama attempted to relate it to 9/11 because he wants us to think that Americans are going to treat oil spills/oil consumption more seriously now, but in reality we all know that most of America couldn't give a flying fuck about its oil usage, or the impact that the oil spills have had.
They're happy enough just to beat someone up as a scapegoat and go back to their regular, irresponsible patterns.
It makes me upset
