Where's the urgency that should be associated with the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Do you get the impression that lawmakers think of environmental disasters such as oil spills, as little more than a political annoyance?

Just in case anyone forgot, that’s a lot of oil that going to fuck with a lot of people’s lives.

I’d mention saving the affected sealife but that’s a hard sell because it’s tough enough to get politicians to care about their own fellow human beings let alone non human life.
