It is a national issue because if this thing gets much worse its going to wreck not only our resources, its going to wreck a number of nations in the gulf's resources and livelihoods. Worse than that who knows what it will mean to the world'e ecosystems that are dependent upon fish and food from this area. I am not going all dooms day or nothing but it is just a cluster fuck of massive proportions and the same people Skewering BP on the political level who albeit were lied to, ate the lies about safety and then allowed these companies to dig deep water oil wells on American shores. This is not happening outside of America's waters this is like a few hundred miles off-shore. I think many of the politicians who agreed to offshore drilling need to be outed and skewered just as much as BP and all these other corporate greed based companies. And lets face it who's using the most gasoline in the world right now? American military, for wars in several nations right now. I mean that's just a fact. And I am not trying to sound anti patriotic but it's quite a national fuck-up to allow this to happen to our shores with ill prepared companies. This is unfortunately quite national of an issue. Lets hope "they" meaning our government and those financially responsible fix it fast. Also I don't care to hear Obama say repeatedly that the gulf will be amazing in the future, I am not voting for you right now we don't need a "Hope" speech we need a " Get the shit stopped or otherwise..." speech. But that's just my opinion.
