Oh.
Hey, what do you say, the next person who says “environmentalists have always made these extreme predictions and they never come true” gets a boot. Somewhere. Somewhere deep.
The dozens of dolphins and the sperm whale trapped in the oil, dead or near death, start at around 6:20.
The end is a little strange.
I know you don’t like when I say this, but you people living in Florida through Louisiana (and points in between) are not exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer. As it were.

According to some sources, yes.

Over that last day or so, tons of BP oil have been removed from Florida beaches. The news shows people who live along the beaches crying. Sorry, Floridians, I do not cry for you. I cry for the clams, but not the people. You put that oil there.
An Open Letter to Joe Barton: See Above!!!!
I saw this guy on the TV yesterday, and wondered, “How much did BP pay him to spew that crap!?!?”
I was about to look into it when Mike sent me this blog post. Go read it. Get mad.
Dolphins and sharks are showing up in surprisingly shallow water just off the Florida coast. Mullets, crabs, rays and small fish congregate by the thousands off an Alabama pier. Birds covered in oil are crawling deep into marshes, never to be seen again.
Marine scientists studying the effects of the BP disaster are seeing some strange — and troubling — phenomena.

Meanwhile BP Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg has issued an apology for referring to the human victims of his companies greed and incompetence as “small people.”
Personally, I don’t care that he said:
“And we care about the small people. I hear comments sometimes that large oil companies are greedy companies or don’t care. But that is not the case in BP. We care about the small people.”
This really is a translation issue. To him, being European and all, “The common peasant” is “the small people” … so he meant well.
We should still throw him on the oil slick, though.
This is NOT a Hitler spoof.

As expected.

Just so you know .. BP, the oil company (not the dating scheme) makes an interesting appearance in The Corporation. Which we’ve talked about on this blog, so I just thought I’d remind us.
Oil firm BP may be “pushed out of the way” if it fails to perform in the Gulf of Mexico oil disaster clean-up, a top US official has warned.
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said the British company had missed “deadline after deadline” in its efforts to seal a blown-out oil well.
