BP v. US

Reading in the NYT, I feel uneasy. Are Ken Salazar, and Dick Durbin qualified to interfere with BP staff?

I hope Obama knows what he is doing; somehow though I feel the role of the Government should be on a higher level, than day to day management of the catastrophe; unless the Government calls for a State of Emergency.

Maybe that declaration is coming, I hope not.

From the NYT:

"While the Corexit products, made by Nalco of Naperville, Ill., are the time-tested old faithfuls of oil spill treatment, developed in the 1980s and 1990s, critics say that less toxic and more effective products are now available."

Naperville is close to my heart.
