Yes, They Really Are Morons …
As somewhat quoted by James Cameron. It’s been close to two months and the oil is still coming out. For every plan that BP comes up with it takes time for them to build or move equipment to that area. Precious time wasted because of what? No contingency plans. Seemingly shoot from the hips mentality. Sure I could see them and government denying Cameron initially but after the second top hat didn’t work you think they would try and get outside help or at least minds to help come up with ideas. People say BP initially was trying to minimize the damage of the equipment so they could continue to pump oil out at a later date. Some would say that Cameron is playing an armchair quarterback. Either way like he said
The government really needs to have its own independent ability to go down there and image the site, survey the site and do its own investigation and monitor it,” Cameron said. “Because if you’re not monitoring it independently, you’re asking the perpetrator to give you the video of the crime scene.Then again we’ve seen how the government works whether it’s a Democrat or Republican in office. The real question is whether people are going to equate Katrina like government failures to Obama or give him a pass. Honestly, I just hope this pipe cutting and shutting off works and the clean-up can be completed.
As my boss would say: I don’t care about the excuses, just get it done. I think we all want that to happen.

- No Slapp for you! Hopefully.
- This round of CDT is complete. Rue McClanahan passes on at the age of 76. This leaves only Betty White as the last surviving Golden Girl.
- Someone called it NERDCON at the Disney Swan and Dolphin resort. Why? Apparently there’s going to be a Hot Wheels convention at the same time and location as this years Botcon.
