BP Mini-Rant

When 9/11 happened we grounded all the planes until we got the situation sorted out.

When the volcano erupted in Iceland we grounded all the planes until we got that situation sorted out.

When one of many many offshore, deep-water oil rigs begins spewing oil all over the Gulf of Mexico we don’t shut down all the other disasters-waiting-to-happen. No, instead we complain that the President’s temporary moratorium on expanded off-shore drilling is reactionary and counter-productive.
