It's unreal. It's unthinkable. You know, they still have a chance to do the right thing.

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.

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.

It's been one lie after another. And the long-term effects of that oil out there, we don't know.
