Oil Leak

[jasonfish320]

I am not sure if anyone has brought up the topic of the big leak in Gulf yet, but I was thinking about the government's role in all of this earlier today. It seems to me that if they are the ones who control leasing the territory than they should definitely take some responsibility. However, it's not like this is their fault either...SHT HAPPENS! You think you have all the safety measures in place and boom..this happens.

Here's my thought: Recently the feds cut back a lot of their funding to NASA..so now you've got the smartest guys (probably in the world) sitting on the sidelines twiddling their thumbs. Sorry but if I was the prez in this position I would have had those boys on the phone pronto to come up with a solution for this plug. I guarantee that the first solution out of NASA would have plugged the well...these guys have no room for error..

It's a shame what is going to happen to the evironment in that area of the Gulf. As if the people in that area haven't suffered enough..
