Off-shore drilling B.O. [ Thu Apr 29 2010 7:08 PM ]

As usual, Obama announces a policy and it goes straight to heck. We don't need off-shore drilling, sir, I told Palin this when she said "Drill, Baby, drill.". This catastrophe has already cost 11 American lives and will devastate the coastlines for years. There will be innumerable shorebirds that lose their lives, among amphibians and reptiles. Where, sir, do you plan to drill next...? Why do you look at the same data and come to the same conclusion and answers as the previous administration on numerous issues? Hope and change... baloney
Regards
Mike

Things that will never happen [ Fri Apr 30 2010 9:53 AM ]

I propose fining the oil company when they don't act fast enough to retain the spew and spill. It's 2010, we surely have the technology to stop the leak. I'm completely nonplussed if we don't.
It doesn't have to be this way. We should be able to drill and retain the spill.

and I don't mean [ Fri Apr 30 2010 9:58 AM ]

a slap on the wrist. I mean consequences that may take the company under if they don't have measures that would solve the leak and spill immediately. This shouldn't even have to be in question right now. This should be written in to contracts- what immediate actions will be taken to stop the leak as soon as it happens. Or was it already in the contracts and they bullshitted all of it.
We deserve truthful answers for this crap.
