What are they waiting for?
For weeks, oil has been gushing into the Gulf Of Mexico, from an underwater well, with no signs of stopping, wreaking untold havoc on the environment.
What are they waiting for?
Blame is passed between the corporations. The government seems lackadaisical in its response.
What are they waiting for?
It’s as if no one knows what to do, to stop this. As if there is no precedent for a crisis like this.
Doesn’t anyone remember 1998, when that asteroid was hurtling toward Earth, threatening to destroy us? America didn’t waste time on finger pointing or hand wringing.
No dammit, we sent Oil Rig workers into space with nuclear weapons.
Are you now telling me that we can’t change the space suits for scuba gear, and send some Roughnecks underwater, to nuke this damn thing?
Somebody take charge here. And, Hey, Aerosmith, would it kill you to write another anthem to Oil Rig Workers?
