I really feel for homeowners, business owners, the fishing industry, boat captains, tourism industry, and others on the Gulf Coast. Cancellations are already evident for condos, etc. in Gulf Shore, Orange Beach, and Destin for tthis summer.
My question still is this - Did we utilize available technolgy such as burning, collecting, etc. to collect oil? This would not be 100% but 75% or more would absolutely have helped. I do not think that we did.
The Louisiana Coast is a mess. Birds covered with oil, dead Dolphins, and oil in marshes is readily seen.
The Gulf Coast is in a survival mode at this time. Sending Att. Gen. Holder to La. was noting but a political ploy. Everything Obama doees appears to be politically motivated. Lawsuits are for the future. Todays issue is oil containment.
