Now this shows the irony of the situation, if it wasn't so tragic re the Gulf spill, it would be funny!

I'm surprised that all Americans and American businesses are not boycotting them 100% - they'd get the message pretty quick!

BP is 40% owned by American companies.
From the interweb:
BP stopped calling itself British Petroleum in 1997 to reflect the fact that it is a transatlantic company. Americans are clearly angry about the Gulf Oil disaster but they seem to be unaware that the accident happened under the watch of BP America and everybody at fault was American.
