Contest: What should BP stand for?


TrueMajority.org has a contest:

What should BP’s initials stand for?

With millions of gallons of oil still swirling in the Gulf, BP has refused to answer questions about what caused the Deepwater Horizon rig to explode, how much oil it’s leaking or when this nightmare might end.

This from a company that claims that its corporate initials – BP – mean “Beyond Petroleum.” Well, we think that corporate tag line needs an update.

So we’re asking what “BP” should stand for now that they’ve wrecked the Gulf.

Use this page to submit your idea for BPs new name and vote for your favorites! The winning phrase will be chosen for a bumper sticker design and delivered to BP’s corporate offices.
