tvashtarkatena Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Well, it's all about the response, isn't it. FEMA, the primary organization responsible for federal response to disasters, was gutted and downgraded in importance, and administratively churned when the DHS was formed. It's response was abysmal. That's when the president needs to kick in. Bush went in with too little too late. He did a shitty, shitty job. Â Yeah, we're all part of the oil problem, OK. Accidents happen, and this one, from an engineering standpoint, is an extremely difficult one to fix. I wouldn't attempt to put too much of a political flavor on it.

kevbone Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 No because at this time in our lives we are all dependent on oil. It is our society. I am hoping this will change. It costs a lot more to get oil than to get solar and wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrox Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 That is such a lame argument. Â While I don't hold Obama responsible for any part of the oil spill I do find a certain level of hypocrisy in the condemnation of those saying "told ya so" while filling up at the nearest gas station. Â I'm quite fond of the Gulf of Mexico and am saddened by this catastrophe but I also think its a bitch move what you're doing. Half your car is made from plastic and runs on oil, you're part of the reason why BP is drilling in the gulf. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairweather Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 OMG, there are illegals in my food? This is immoral. And speaking of food, it takes 37 calories of oil to produce every single calorie you shove into your hole. Something to think about while you hop on to your $5000.00 road bike and flip off cars...
