The free market will take care of this.

Editor,

Who cares how mad Mr. Obama is?

And why wasn't every skimmer and empty oil tanker within 500 miles at the site of Deepwater Horizon 5 minutes after it slipped below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico?

All the suits posing as being in charge of this debacle are so deeply enchanted by their abstract reckonings of dollar costs and organization charts they have no clue as to the reality of what is going down out there.

The Gulf of Mexico is dying, and President Obama is managing his image. BP is lying non-stop as they try to set themselves up to avoid legal responsibility for what they have done. The other bozos who caused this disaster are lying low hoping no one notices them hunkering down. It's a ship of self-serving fools posing on the bridge as the water -- or in this case the oil -- rises all around them.

Don't worry. The free market will take care of this. (I state with bitter irony. Living things don't care two cents about anybody's money, image, or free market.)
