That can't be a quote from rudy. He did not mention 911 once. :nope: |
Similar thing is happening in my country. Mud with oil and gas gushing out in a place called Sidoarjo east Java covering factories and homes. Little has been done to try to mitigate this. Nobody knows how long the mud is going to continue to flow. The land has begun to subside 0.5 to more than 14m due to the sheer weight of the mud on the surface. Some people argue that it could take hundreds of years before the mud stop flowing. Each day it's believed 100,000 m3 of mud is flowing out. It's a major man made catastrophe and little is being done. It's been flowing out since May 2006.

Blasted right-wing dinosaurs anyway. The left-wing dinosaurs were just as loopy, though. Neither could fly straight, and were constantly accused of flip-flopping onto the issues. If only they had evolved enough to use both wings at the same time... :DL |

The oil spill starts. Obama lets BP handle things, which is what conservatives want. BP fails. Now conservatives say Obama shouldn't have let BP handle things? It seems like it's just criticism for criticism's sake. Or hypocrisy. |
yes i believe the government should stay out of the private sector.
I also believe that once a member of said private sector causes an ecological disaster of epic proportions... the "Gumment", to some degree, must get involved to protect national assets and interests. I know it confuses the hell out of you but its simple. Perhaps we need to give this president a pack of smokes, a particular brand of malt liquor and sumthin' to poke on before he can function on any sort of decision making capacity. |

Oh of course. The republican party...His harshest critics... also the party of "privatize everything" is now saying the government should handle this one.
(or is it because this too fits their agenda of obama bashing?) |

All disasters have these same characteristics, the sad part is people forget the lessons too soon and get complacent. What earthquake? We haven't had an earthquake here in thirty years! At least BP is getting stuck to the wall. Exxon :arrgh!: payed out $15,000 compensation to the people who lost their businesses after 20 years of corporate BS. :stare: Anyway, off to bed. :yawn: |

Face it, the Obama administration was slow to react and has accomplished little if anything since. If this were Bush you'd be frothing at the mouth far worse so quick crying crocodile tears now that the shoe is on the other foot. |
