There is no reason to hurry on this, if cleanup began immediately, the slick won’t be cleaned up for 6-7 years anyway. We just need to move on to alternative problems. Possibly the spread of assault knives in Cucamonga, pygmy gophers threatened by cow flatulence, or inability to get high quality caviar until we cut all nuclear weapons programs to zero.

I saw it. He was mad that it was raining.

I kept watching because I was hoping for a thunderstorm.

That bastard 0b0z0 is wearing his furrowed brow look of concern!!! Of course the bastard waited for 9 days before making any official remark or action on the oil spill. Yep, I can hear the “colossal ineptitude” remarks scorching Bush, if he had waited for 9 days to react to this. Of course....0bozo is a (half)black socialist leftie RAT bastard. Therefore he gets praised for doing nothing other than showing up for photo ops, while the media marvels at his firm command of the disaster. sarc/ What a pig 0booooboooo is!!!

Mary Landrieu let the cat out of the bag today when she mentioned that the oil companies have a 1.6 billion dollar oil spill reserve which will now become yet another DNC slush fund in addition to all the dough they can extort out of BP. These people are totally incorrigible.

Jindal is more than up to the task to take on zero and his henchman. He's a no nonsense conservative and will not be bullied by the Marxists.

What would have happened if an “evil oil man” and his evil sidekick from Haliburton would have been in charge?

Give Jindal a break, his stet will be in a world of sh_t for some time to come he will need all the govt. support he can get. He is forced to get along with zero for now. Either Jindal gets fed/BP money or the DNC gets it for a slush fund now which would you prefer?

0bama means biblical days.

In other words, it won’t be stopped until there is no more oil to gush.

Shit, it took him 10 days just to respond to it.

He wanted it to become as horrible a crisis as possible, of course. Now these statists can use the oil spill as a way to take over another segment of the economy, the oil companies. Government-controlled, rationed gas stations here we come!

I believe the most common way of ridding waters of such oil slicks today is through biodegradation with a special “oil eating” microbe. But why can’t it simply be contained with a floating wall and vacuumed up from the surface for normal use as crude oil until the leak can be plugged? Why let the oil go to waste?

No remedy in sight, President Barack Obama on Sunday warned of a "massive and potentially unprecedented environmental disaster"

Looks like the MSM wants the Zero to take over the oil companies.

"Obama says stopping oil spill could take many days"

What a genius! It's already been what 10-12 days?
Making a pronouncement after the fact does not qualify one as smart or important. FUBO
