Re: Guard watches coast for oil slick's first wave

I went to see Chelsea Handler in Richmond last night and thought this was a hilarious point...

It's a British company on a foreign rig in the Gulf of Mexico, yet the USA is the country to blame? I know that might be making light of the situation, but isn't it a little true, especially considering Mexico has some stake in the Gulf too?

"The panel appointed by President Barack Obama to investigate the Gulf of Mexico oil spill is short on technical expertise "

Every damned panel on every subject is short on technical expertise.. we're literally talking about a lot of guys who are old as shit and have no clue about modern practices.. it's a shame really.. not that every congressman is old but how do you expect someone making a career in politics to really know about much else? they know perception and that's about it... and the people feeding them info have their biases and agendas and the congressmen definitely have their own as well

I'm not a huge fan of the legislative branch and I don't care if it's 100% dem, 100% repub, 50/50 or 100% independent.. the system is flawed itself

Cioporate America is short on technical expertise period. There in lies our biggest problem. We reward loyalty so we wind up short on talent.
