Go here to read all the propaganda about how much BP is doing.
Make no mistake, this is a disaster of epic proportions. Even if BP had all the money in the world they can never repay the damage and wait until hurricane season kicks in. Can’t wait for those oil rains (post your links to other oil spill stories in the comments section).
Maybe we should quit forcing oil companies to drill in a mile of water when there’s other areas they could hit in shallow water or even on dry land.
Maybe oil companies need to fix the backup plug when they know it is broken.
Two weeks ago 60 Minutes had a great hour on how badly BP screwed up.
ThinkProgress says “BP Hires Dick Cheney’s Press Secretary, Anne Womack-Kolton .”
Heck of a job BP.
Try the Kevin Costner centrifuge.
Can’t be any worse then what BP has done so far.
I can’t wait for the nice oil sheen my lawn will take on when it gets into the atmosphere from the hurricane season.
On the plus side, when they figure out how to effectively stop this leak, they’ll have a working model for the future.
Being able to fix problems at that depth should have been a prerequisite to being allowed to drill there.
Kinda like requiring people to pass an intelligence test before they are allowed to procreate?
That would be fantastic too.
Making babies is way too easy. Taking good care of them is the hard part.
