About
Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching. All this and more from a gay liberal atheist living in California’s Bible belt. Some names have been omitted to protect the innocent, but the guilty will be hung out to dry!

An Act Of God? Or Just Incompetence?
June 4, 2010
Jim Reeves commentary, News, Personal, Pictures Beyond Petroleum, BP, British Petroleum, Gulf of Mexico, oil spill Leave a comment
“Drill, baby, drill!” – Sarah Palin, John McCain, Fox News, et al
“Government isn’t the solution, government’s the problem!” – Ronald Reagan
If there really were a God, and if I were him, I might be starting the rain right about now. I might let it go twice as long as the last time. Or, I might just hit the “reset” button, and go back to just before Adam.
Yes, they CAN drill in 5,000 feet of water, and hit oil. They just can’t do it safely, or clean up the mess when they fail. How much you want to bet BP’s “we’ll make it right” morphs soon into “we’ll make it right, up to the legal limit of $75 million dollars”?
