42,000 gallons of oil spilling into the ocean every day, right off the coast of Lousiana, and the Coast Guard doesn't consider it a 'very serious spill'? Give me a break. It's going to take more than a month to seal the well. FORTY TWO THOUSAND GALLONS A DAY. FOR A MONTH.
Here's what it looks like right now:
President Obama mentioned opening up more U.S. areas for off-shore drilling during his campaign, but I thought it was more of a ploy to pick up any right-leaning undecideds. Now it looks like a play for votes in this fall's elections, especially since his approval rating has dropped dramatically after the fight for his health care bill.
After these recent events, I hope this rating drops dramatically too. However, the media is doing plenty to hide the story.
Let's play a game! It's called 'Find the Oil Spill Coverage in the 'Liberal' Media!'
I get that the Goldman Sachs executive hearing in the Senate is important, but this oil spill is just a few days away from hitting our shore. Then let's see if the media stops playing 'Where's Waldo' with it.

Unfortunately "Greedalism" doesn't know any better and I've sort of given up on humans evolving much further until it is all over with.
