Absolutely not. The spots you saw, you don't have the thick oil. But when a bird gets a little bit of oil on its breast, it's like you punching a hole in a rubber boot. You're going to get pneumonia and die.
How long are we going to let them tell us what they're going to do. When is the government going to say, get out the way, we're going to measure it.
They just don't get it. We can never forget those 11 lives lost. And to hear those men that survived being treated -- and it's typical for BP.
They have no plan. The Coast Guard nor BP has a plan. There's nobody cleaning up the marsh. I want to see a plan. If you're not going to have a plan, get the hell out of the way and let us go do it ourselves.
