I think criminal charges against BP is ridiculous.
If this was the Bush administration the Headline would have said, "Poll: Bush Response To Oil Spill Rated Worse than Katrina" instead of, "Poll: BP Oil Spill Response Rated Worse than Katrina". Bush would have been blamed instead of BP but since the Dear Leader is president the focus is on BP and its the, "federal governments fault" not Obama.

Poll: BP Oil Spill Response Rated Worse than Katrina
Most Favor Criminal Charges Against BP and Others Involved in the Gulf of Mexico Spill
ANALYSIS By GARY LANGER
June 7, 2010
By more than a 2-to-1 margin, Americans support the pursuit of criminal charges in the nation's worst oil spill, with increasing numbers calling it a major environmental disaster. Eight in 10 criticize the way BP's handled it and more people give the federal government's response a negative rating than did the response to Hurricane Katrina.
A month and a half after the spill began, 69 percent in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll rate the federal response negatively. That compares with a 62 negative rating for the response to Katrina two weeks after the August 2005 hurricane.
