During Sunday morning’s, we sometimes tune into the `State of the Union with Candy Crowley` on CNN. We heard her interviewing Admiral Thad Allen of the United States Coast Guard yesterday. We had always admired Candy and how well she asked questions of her guests.
Today during the White House briefing, Admiral Thad Allen had spoken again. Our impression was that America knew how to stop that oil leakage. But for whatever reason, BP and pals (namely Halliburton) don’t seem overly aggressive in taking action. And for the next 90 days, the spew will continue from the ocean floor. The briefing took over an hour, ending at 1:22pm (PDT).
Now, the USCG is supposed to GUARD the COAST. All the government needs to do is make its business cohorts pay now and then the government will take care of the rest. Or if the private third parties got other ideas, it sure is taking a long time! What’s the delay? What’s the snag?
