JOHN YOUNG: “I want to be on the record--this is a disaster waiting to happen.”

The federal government and BP are stuck on stupid 72 days into this thing, two and a half months, 10 weeks, and there's still not a sense of urgency.

The $20 billion is woefully inadequate. The $100 million is woefully inadequate.

We need the federal government to cut the red tape. We need the -- the President to exercise his executive authority and say, cut through the red tape. We don't have a minute to waste.

I think we are spending more and the costs are growing unacceptably.
