“Hey Joel, most oil spills occur from ships transporting foreign oil to us....ya dope!”

Nope, Natural seepage.

THANK YOU!

Yes, natural seepage but I was referring to accidental spills, which is what the environmental whackos always point to. Offshore rigs vs transporting oil across the oceans from foreign suppliers.

this bogus corporation I created to lower my taxes but now takes up all of my time

Typical liberal — wants taxes raised but cheats on paying his full share.

Exactly!

I thought about writing an email to the LAT rebutting this POS article but because there are SO MANY inaccuracies it would take the rest of the morning to do it.

Foreign oil is my favorite kind of oil.

Yep, I like paying for both sides of the war too.

Yes, because there is absolutely no strategic or market advantage in increasing and diversifying the global oil supply. I swear, the “fungible” talking point has made the rounds and replaced the thought process. Tell Canada and Venezuela to halt oil operations - no difference is being made in the price for anyone, and they aren’t gaining anything except pollution. Some rich, neurotic, low-testosterone media metrosexual might spot the faint signature of an oil rig on the horizon and need yet another hour of therapy per week.

Thank You!

Like I’ve said, this article is just loaded with inanities!

Joel Stein:
It means other nations clog their beaches with ugly rigs, do dangerous work and suffer environmental disasters and I still get to cruise Sunset Boulevard in my yellow Mini Cooper convertible.
That is sooooooooo gay.

Now what would Joel be 'cruising' Sunset Blvd for? ;-)

Typical Elitist Leftist. He probably thinks he's being clever, but he betrays his true colors on the inside. Perfect example of a Watermelon Marxist.

He drives a yellow convertible mini-cooper.
Whats the problem? He couldn’t find a convertible white volkswagon rabbit so he could have the only gayer car in the universe?

I don’t care what he “believes”...for the LAT to publish this rubbish is ridiculous!

there are so many inaccuracies in the piece it would take a good two hours to rewrite it!
