| 2. It can be "cleaned" up somewhat... it helps that oil floats but it is an expensive process.. |
|
The biggest problem will be if it floats to shore.

| 3. I can't watch that but thanks for bringing it here. |
|
Strange I can extricate a torn up human from an MVA but the thought of these poor oil-covered babies makes me too sick. I guess it's the difference in vulnerability ....... they have no escape from our poisons.

My back yard..and to think ..no republican president could do this to us..Obama did!
It threatens our Eco System..and our fishing industry, our tourism, and our beautiful gift of pristine beaches, amd the economy of my entire state.
What an utter disgrace..that democrat would go against his pledges to leave our coast lines alone!
Obama has now opened up over a Million Miles of shorelines..
He will pay dearly for this at the polls!..
But worst of all..we all will pay for this ...forever!
I resent in the wost way...our shorelines and coastlines being stolen from our children and our children's children!
What a filthy disgrace!
And you don't want to read the newspapers where I am in Florida.. and the Op-eds..the betrayal is more than evident...there is furious anger by betrayed democrats and environmentalists!
