1. Keep it kicked for the lurking freepers n/t

2. Do the hearts of freepers leap for joy when they see the environment destroyed?

Sorry for the ridiculous question. I know you first have to have a heart for it to leap for joy, let alone feel compassion for the victims of corporate irresponsibility...

14. As long as it's not in their backyard, and somebody's making money.

6. well, there were plenty of DUers a couple of weeks ago lauding the offshore drilling thingy.

not sure where they are now, they seem to be very quiet on the issue.

9. Don't they, though?

I noticed that myself.

There are times when I feel that no matter how much I support a candidate, I am not going to support that candidate when he or she is just flat out wrongheaded.

There are no baby steps of progress when it comes to the oil business. I know.

3. Looks like microscopic images of disease in gulf blue-green plus pink-copper.

I once read something that I'm trying to find again. Edgar Cayce predicted the Gulf turning pink. I can't remember if he said algae or if that is what I thought. There was something like the Gulf of Mexico going dead? Still searching. Anyone.

8. Truely ugly pictures.

Looking at those picture is there any doubt we shouldn't have a government takeover of the greedy oil companies. A few years back some rich business execs wanted to pool their money and build a refinery. The oil companies told the banks NOT to loan them the money - what arrogance. The US patent office, until this last Aug, was led by a Bush appointed former oil co exec. Why hasn't Obama opened up some of those suppressed fuel saving patents?

11. We don't need a government takeover of greedy oil companies.

We need a government takeover of effective and tough regulation of greedy oil companies.

I.e, we need government to start doing its job better.

15. I disagree.
