“If you start the clean-up before the oil stops leaking, you’ll just have to spend the millions more to clean it up AGAIN! Why not just wait to get the oil leak stopped before pulling all resources from everywhere else?! It makes perfect sense- both logically and fiscally. If not, we’re going to pay TWICE to clean up the Gulf! And then you conservatives would complain about THAT too!”
I don’t think that’s the case. If you capture the oil as it comes up you can flush the seawater and reclaim the a good percentage of the oil. If you capture it far out it doesn’t end up on the shores. Isn’t that right?
I think he just extends his house cleaning schedule to the Gulf.
