Fucking Haliburton

Lets revisit my March 31st post about drilling.  I think I remember chastising Obama for expanding oil drilling opportunities in US coastal waters.  And then, boom two months later a fucking oil rig of the Gulf Coast explodes, kills 11 people and is currently pumping 200,000 gallons of crude oil into the ocean per day!  The Exxon Valdez spill that fucked up Prince William Sound spewed 11 million gallons and that was an ecological fucking disaster.  Well, were catching up everyday and soon enough this one might beat the Exxon spill and then we can throw a party for most fucked up (human caused) environmental disaster in recent history.  Yeah!  And the best part, BP who operated the well had no contingency plan in the even t of such a disaster.  They didn't feel it necessary to come up with an emergency plan because they didn't think it was likely for anything bad to happen.  How the fuck did they get away with that?  Put enough money in peoples pockets and energy on the market and safety takes a back seat.  Surely not the first time that's happened, this year.  I remember something not to long ago about a mine disaster in West Virginia... So sure Obama, this is exactly what we need, more drilling.  Maybe it's some ironic timing but you kind of look like an idiot right now.  

And guess who's partially to blame?  Any guesses?  No?  Fucking Haliburton!  No kidding.  Good old Dick Cheney and friends.  I read they didn't cause the explosion necessarily but apparently they were contracted to seal the pipeline underwater and did a shit job and the seal burst and is now what's leaking oil all over Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.  I can't wait until it gets to the everglades and soaks all those stupid manatees.  Those things are such assholes, they deserve to get coated in oil.  So cheers to the environment.  Suck on this one Earth!  To read some real journalism about the incident and spill fallout check out the links below.  Rabble-B
