WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama's chief of staff is warning about what might happen if Republicans -- who have defended BP over the Gulf oil spill -- were to run Congress after the fall election. Rahm Emanuel says the GOP philosophy is to paint BP as the victim, pointing to Rep. Joe Barton's apology to BP (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/17/gop-outraged-by-shakedown_n_615686.html) for what the congressman called a White House "shakedown."
