SHRIMP AND OIL: THEY GO TOGETHER

It’s only June, I know, but the BP Gulf Disaster is already the top contender for Biggest Train Wreck of 2010 – not just in terms of the magnitude, but also in other ways.

Like the spectacle of small-govt conservatives either claiming this never would have happened if we’d allowed an American oil company to drill that hole instead of a bunch of foreigners, or – better yet – advocating federal govt solutions to the spill.

Which is ironic, not least since the federal govt actually appears to have been part of the problem, given the US Interior Dept's Minerals Management Service’s cozy relationship with oil companies [and by “cozy” I mean “they have sex with each other”].

For example, apparently both BP and the MMS knew all the way back in June 2009 that there were problems that could lead to what we’re seeing now. BP went ahead anyway, and the MMS let them.

All because BP gives great head or something.

And as we’re now seeing, no one had a Plan B, which means the well could pump out oil for years, destroying the natural ecosystem and the Gulf fishing industry with just one explosion.

On the bright side, the 75th annual Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival is still on for Labor Day.



So, you know, that’s encouraging. Hopefully that’ll cheer up the local fishermen. Or at least the local oil workers. Or, you know, somebody.
