British Petroleum and Their Oil "Spill"

Spill. Right. Is that really what one might call 43 days worth of the worst crude oil disaster in American history? I think we're past that.

See this article: "Don't Make Excuses for BP"

I won't belabor you with the saddest pictures of an oil disaster, just simply remind you that Louisiana folks just BARELY are able to get back on their feet after Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

I just read that BP has already stated they are paying for at least six parts of the barrier islands proposal. Not sure if that means 6 islands or what. The original demand was 24 separate islands to block more crude oil from hitting Louisiana's shores.

But geez, just STOP THE OIL. At this point, just fricking sink a couple of decommissioned aircraft carriers on top of it or shove a few thousand metric tons of whatever down the opening!
