BetUS.com is the latest to take a stab at offering odds on the BP oil spill and when it might be resolved in the wake of President Barack Obama's Oval Office speech Tuesday evening.

The bungling of the BP oil spill on the Gulf region by the principals of that disgraceful company has sparked nothing less than outrage all over the world, BetUS.com analysts stated.

One offering that should attract plenty of attention is whether British Petroleum's "inept" CEO Tony Hayward gets fired. They have "Yes" as the 1/2 favorite and the "No" paying US$3 for every US$2 bet.

For those fearful that BP will go bankrupt (and essentially renege on all legitimate claims), the online betting company has offered some good news in that their odds of this NOT happening were long at 1/5.

The online gambling firm will not be offering odds on any type of damages to the coastline, marshes, industries or environment.

Putting a price on BP and its disgraced CEO's head: Few will take issue with such a concept we suspect.
