While most Americans are appalled by the damage caused by BP and believe the oil giant should help the victims financially, several right wing talkers (Pat Buchanan, Laura Ingraham, Andrew Napolitano, Brian Kilmeade, Newt Gingrich, Stuart Varney and Mark Levin) are rushing to BP's defense.

Several conservative talk show hosts and guests rushed to defend BP (British Petroleum) and Texas Congressman Joe Barton, who apologized to BP earlier this week when the oil company was pushed to set up a 20 billion dollar fund for the victims of the Gulf oil spill, at the behest of the Obama White House.
