Lord Tebbit doesn't get it

"While many Americans have been pushing Obama to take a tougher stance against BP, Lord Tebbit, the former government minister in Britain, criticized the president for his recent attacks. 'The whole might of American wealth and technology is displayed as utterly unable to deal with the disastrous spill—so what more natural than a crude, bigoted, xenophobic display of partisan political presidential petulance against a multinational company?'"

Does anyone else find this comment outrageous? The arrogance of the British Lords appears to be present and accounted for in jolly old England. This from an article headlined: "BP Execs baffled as shares reach 13-year low"
