I thought the same thing until I read today that it is against the law for the goevernment to take over the effort to fix the leaks. Can you believe that? Sad but true - our insipid lawmakers passed a law sometime in the past that made it illegal for the government to take over a situation like this. So we get to watch the entire Gulf Coast slowly destroyed while BP fingers its own asshole.

Do you guys remember back in the late 80s, or maybe early 90s, when the COO of Exxon was kidnapped by a couple, shot in the arm in the driveway of his mansion, put into a small coffin-like wooden box and stashed in a U-Rent-It for several days. He got to spend 3 days suffering horrible pain, laying in his own shit and piss, until he finally died alone in that box. The bumbling kidnappers were my heroes then (I don't forget Exxon Valdez) and I believe it is high time someone emulated that plan with the current BP upper managerment.

That's pretty insane if that's the case on it being against the law for the govt to step in. I don't have a clue how they can possibly justify doing nothing while BP obviously can't fix it.

As far as the other thing.. I'm quite certain this kind of major disaster will be enough to set off some of a crazies in the various environmentalist movements. Nothing wrong with protecting the environment mind you but some of those guys are fruit cakes.

There is nothing the government can do that BP is not doing already.

I have been on GFY too long. Everytime I see "BP" I think of BoneProne.

Or perhaps one of the thousands who will lose their livelihoods and quite possibly their shirts because of this shit. The word crazy is a subjective term.

WASHINGTON ? Facing a growing furor over the monthlong Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the White House Friday named two environmentalists to lead a presidential commission investigating the disaster.

BP doesn't give two shits about the ecosystem. They're a fortune 500 company, which means they only care about their bottom line. Sure, part of their business is PR control, but that's just politics.

"enviro crazies" are the least of their worries. some mom and pop who are watching their whole lives destroyed by oil are going to be the ones to watch.

There's a block in my neighborhood that has a BP station on one corner, and a Shell directly across the street. One was busy, the other was not. Coincidence?
