Hostage to our feckless president who’d rather play golf, give “kick ass” speeches and act tough than try something new to keep the oil off the beaches and out of the estuaries and marshes. Something new such as the A-Whale.
He already blew off the Dutch and their expertise. Not-invented-here, etc. So now the A-Whale is set upon by the fed’s bureaucratic EPA piranha. If Barry doesn’t ignore it, because he can’t get his community-organizer brain around the concept, they’ll chew it to death.
BP was only drilling in 5,000-feet of water in the Gulf in the first place because of our dimwitted politicians who imagine solar and wind can replace oil:
“According to 2008 Energy Department figures, nearly 80% of potentially oil-rich offshore lands are off limits to oil and gas development, and 60% of onshore lands are.”
