Duh

Saw a teaser about an upcoming news story on MSNBC titled “How dangerous is oil to birds and wildlife in the gulf?”

I mean really, do we need a story to determine this?  Are there going to people arguing the pro-oil in the gulf side of the issue? 

“Sure oil is a bit messy but throw a pelican in the bathtub and he is good as new” 

“A little oil in your fish helps the complexion.”

“We have too much wildlife anyway”

In related exciting news, oil has officially washed up on the Florida panhandle.  The same network had a reporter hold up her gloved hands that were covered in black goo to prove it. 

I was reading about the latest BP fail in the local newspaper.  At the bottom of the article the paper allows readers to comment on the story.  By the time I got down scanning the 50 or 60 comments I was disgusted. 85% of the comments were “it’s the Democrats fault, it’s the Republicans fault”  back and forth bullshit.   

It’s ridiculous.  The political lines that divide this country are getting to be Confederate War style deep.  Are the Democrats and Republicans going to be creating their own version of the flag shortly as well?
