A rare endangered species (like the US middle class)!
Drill, baby, drill! These little guys need food!
LOL!
fyi
If Bush was in office the news would still be terrible.
I read the other day that hurricane Katrina ended up being good for New Orleans after all...
Drill baby drill. Sounds like the disaster was more of a minor natural event. Oil leaked just a little faster and the bottom of the food chain multiplied as it ate it. Guess that means it was a kind of fertilizer that also didn’t overdo it and consume all the oxygen. So we can expect it to expand the whole food chain for a while.
I was wondering if anything could get the anti-drill/anti-US oil/anti-nuke/anti-coal left madder than the spill, and I’ve got my answer—the spill being cleaned up faster and more efficiently than expected. They’re outraged that this isn’t being treated like the end of the world.
But then that brings up questions of what harm, if any, will these bacteria cause? Can they survive in humans or creatures of the sea and do harm?
Some scientists have a LOTS of fun with this disaster, haven't they? When will the realize that God gave us oil for a reason and made critters that can clean up the mess when we spill it. This bodes VERY WELL for drill-baby-drill in our waters.
Anyone who did a little reading would have realized this was the likely outcome. The same thing happened with the IXTOC I in 1979. Gulf spills are completely different than the Exxon Valdez because the gulf has a much more robust eco system due to warmer temps, being farther from land, etc. Exxon Valdez dumped near islands in shallow, frigid water.
Of course this good news will not cause the idiot in the White House to let the hard working folks in the oil drilling business go back to work. he would rather vacation with his elite buddies and golf than allow the ‘little people’ to go back to work. November can’t come soon enough!
Wait a minute. This week the microbes ate the oil. Last week there was a giant hidden plume they found underwater. And the week before, there was no oil to be found. Hmmm.
It may not be a question of depth but of salinity.
A peculiar closing statement, apparently from a disappointed reporter.
Yes.
It's like the weather channel reporters and the global warming hoaxologists that are in a panic because there have not been any Katrinas to report.
Every day that goes by you can fell the panic in their voices.
Adding this :
More evidence that we are simply “gnats on the elephant’s behind” as far as the earth is concerned and not making vast changes to the ecosystem.
Global warming just isn't paying off for the hysteria crowd the way it was supposed to, just like the oil spill is a big disappointment to the eco-whackoes.
"The research was supported by an existing grant with the Energy Biosciences Institute, a partnership led by the U.C. Berkeley and the University of Illinois that is funded by a $500 million, 10-year grant from BP"

I hope this is true for increased oil production. But do we trust Berkley?
Wait till they say the microbes released a massive amount of CO2 digesting the oil. Sped climate change up by 10 years. ;)
Can anyone guess how the Bush-Cheney team would have reacted to this.....I guarantee it wouldn’t have been like the half los-negroes/muslim/who know what-idiot team did.....
