How in the world does one collide with a barge? It’s not like they’re speed boats zipping past one…
…looks like another drunken captain.
The words George Bush I echo the oil man’s empty promises of safety…and clean up…as we have witnessed with every freaking oil spill since then–Kalamazoo and Arkansas and the Gulf are evidence of that. As one of the commenters said, the captain was made the scapegoat while the company escaped blame.
And Tricky Dicks’ comments? “The Alaskan pipeline is on the way…and the environment will be saved…” Priceless.
The proponents of XL pipeline are saying it’s going to create jobs…but as this video illustrates, how many jobs are lost (income lost) by the spills? How does one put a price tag on the oiled soil, water, and dead/impaired wildlife? Why are they even *considering* XL after all that has happened…?
