I actually don’t. What I do have a case of is living on a bayou that emptys into a bay that emptys into the Gulf of Mexico in a city where the mayor is trying to formulate a plan for our own oil control to keep it from getting up to the city because the feds and BP are doing nothing.
Let me explain to you what happens if this is not controlled and this thing continues spewing forever. In a best case scenario the economic ramfications will lead to a 50% population loss. That’s best case. You’re talking about anywhere from several million people to up to almost 10,000,000 people who will have to abandon their homes and everything else because they’ll no longer be able to live here.
If you don’t think that the almost immediate dispersement and lost of assets of such a large population won’t have devastating effects on the whole country and especially on the Gulf states then you have never studied history.
“Until Barton opened his mouth this was the gift that was going to give forever because people blamed BP and Obama and Democrat politicians. Barton hurt our cause by providing a Republican face supportive of BP thereby nullifying some of the partisan advantage we were picking up against Obama.”
Well, I can symphathize with your situation, but the words of one Congressman is not the downfall of your whole world. That, I disagree with.
