You know the whole thing could be avoided if they would allow us to drill for oil on dry land where it is much safer! Not to mention clean-up is much more simple on dry land. If this incident would have happened on the main land it would have been contained and cleaned much sooner. As far as catch phrases go, I'm not seeing to many ideas for clean up out of the "yes we can" crowd. In fact Obama is just getting around to getting down to the gulf again this weekend. I guess the people of the gulf should be happy though that is more than he has been to Nashville to see the flood victims there. The other thing that amazes me is the people that say this is a sign from God. So let me get this straight, this is a sign from God, yet the same isn't true for 9/11 or Katrina? I'm no Pat Robertson nut job nor will I spew his stupidity, but that seems like a double standard.

[QUOTE="CoachV40, post: 139540, member: 2480"] You know the whole thing could be avoided if they would allow us to drill for oil on dry land where it is much safer! Not to mention clean-up is much more simple on dry land. If this incident would have happened on the main land it would have been contained and cleaned much sooner. As far as catch phrases go, I'm not seeing to many ideas for clean up out of the "yes we can" crowd. In fact Obama is just getting around to getting down to the gulf again this weekend. I guess the people of the gulf should be happy though that is more than he has been to Nashville to see the flood victims there. The other thing that amazes me is the people that say this is a sign from God. So let me get this straight, this is a sign from God, yet the same isn't true for 9/11 or Katrina? I'm no Pat Robertson nut job nor will I spew his stupidity, but that seems like a double standard. [/QUOTE]
