One thought on “Big Government Is Bad! Save Us Big Government!”
This is a dishonest cartoon. The reality is that the Feds were impeding practical responses such as deploying skimmers and containment devices and they were imposing impractical measures such as drilling and fishing moritoria.
The hew and cry that I remember was for the Feds to lead or get out of the way.
The whole events smells of Obama theatrics, what with all the guile. How much oil was spewed? No one knows, but that doesn’t stop anyone from saying it was 5,000,000 bbl. It isn’t all that much, though, and if the skimmers had been allowed to operate and the press had not been forbidden access to the area, everyone would have seen that’s it’s all been exaggerated in order to give Obama cover to impose his awful policies.
And it has yet to be proven that this incident was an accident and not a deliberate act of sabotage. How can anything be proven when it all went up in flames and then sank to the seafloor a mile below?
For a blog that would promote science, one would expect it to be a bit more perceptive to truth and less given to guile and irrational phobias.
