Is it possible that this stuff is going to be used as an excuse for Republicans in Texas to introduce legilslation that will cap damage judgements or reduce the owner's fiscal liabilities.
Perhaps the owners are going to be respresented as victims by Perry and other big de-regulation interests- victims that need protection from ordinary people that have the nerve to say they don't want to have thier communities destroyed by the greed and destruction of the criminally wealthy.
Perry and the rest of the extreme de-regulation right wingers have a large share of responsibility for the deaths and destruction caused by the explosion.

Teabaggers are morally incapable of accepting responsibility for thier actions. Why do they hate Americans so much?
