“The plans would be announced in the event of a controlled burn of surface oil in the Gulf of Mexico, or if wind or other conditions are expected to take toxic fumes through Tampa Bay.”

Oil infusion of the aquifers would be worse.

We've had salt water intrusions before - but not so much as to ruin the water supply. Would oil destroy fresh water - making Florida unlivable?

The guy second from left in the first picture is Dr. Ed Overton of LSU. PhD Analytical Chemist. Probably the most knowledgable person on the boat about chemicals and their effects (and likewise oil spills and THEIR effects). Note that he is NOT wearing a respirator. So much for all the hoopla about how toxic the air above the spill is.

I’m sure BO/BS and FEMA will be more than happy to open up FEMA detention centers... er ah I mean shelters to help the good people of Tampa Bay.

What if the burn-off gets out of control?

Worst-case scenario is this thing gushes for decades, so could it possibly burn for decades?

In the meantime, Florida's turncoat, Obama-loving, fruitcake governor, Charlie Tuna Crisp, is putting no pressure on the president for skimmers or for ANY ACTION AT ALL like Louisiana's Governor Jindal is.

Why do I have the feeling that burning off large amounts of oil on the water so close to land will just replace one problem with another.
I suspect most aquifers are safe since water normally runs from land to the oceans.
A million tons of sooty oil smoke however will blow in over land and a good portion will settle or rain down.
They should have used oil booms, berms and barges to prevent the oil from reaching land in the first place.
They had two months to prepare for this! They failed.

What are you hearing about this? Is this a likely scenario?

You know what makes me the sickest? Being POTUS is a 24 hour job, and obviously one of the most stressful jobs on the planet. But it’s a job you ask for, not one that’s thrust upon you.

And it’s only required for 4 years...4 years, that’s less time than I’ve been at my current employer.

You have the rest of your life to enjoy the perks of being a President, so for the 4 years you’re elected to the office that YOU wanted, get off the ***ing golf course and do your damn job.

More of shame that it’s only taken 18 months to dismantle this country almost beyond repair.

Obama is a POS. I used to say have respect for the office, but he has none for it so therefore, FUBO!
