White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Monday afternoon that BP Oil is “absolutely” on the hook for the Gulf of Mexico oil spill cleanup as well as the financial injury to the seafood industry, and others who make their livelihoods in the gulf.
“If local fishermen can’t fish, that’s an economic loss that BP is going to have to pay,” Gibbs told reporters. “That’s part of the law, absolutely. The economic damages that are incurred are part of the cost of this incident, absolutely.”
