What Can a Person Say?

Drill, Baby, Drill? Is that something anyone from the State of Alaska ought to say? Been to Prince William Sound lately to talk with the folks who used to make a living fishing those waters?

And on the other side of the political spectrum, we have Prez Obama trying to open new waters for oil exploration. Has the Prez flown over to look at this mess?

So many questions, so few answers.

One thing is certain, that’s a lot of oil pouring in to the waters of the Gulf Coast.

Clean, baby, clean.

clipped from news.yahoo.com Crews try setting fire to oil leaking in Gulf OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO – It’s a hellish scene: Giant sheets of flame racing across the Gulf of Mexico as thick, black smoke billows high into the sky. This, though, is no Hollywood action movie. It’s the real-life plan to be deployed just 20 miles from the Gulf Coast in a last-ditch effort to burn up an oil spill before it could wash ashore and wreak environmental havoc. About 42,000 gallons of oil a day are leaking into the Gulf from the blown-out well drilled by the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. Eleven workers are missing and presumed dead. The cause of the explosion has not been determined.
