A blessing in disguise
Time and again, as the offshore drilling debate has droned on, we have been assured by the “drill, baby, drill” proponents that there is no danger to our coastlines, that all the safeguards are in place.
Awful as it may sound, the Deepwater Horizon rig’s demise could be a blessing in disguise as it takes center stage as the poster child of ecological ruin.
Now, let’s see a show of hands of the elected officials who are in favor of bringing these envi ronmental monsters closer to our shores. And as future elections play out, let’s all make sure we have a commitment from whomever we vote for, regard less of affiliation, to never expose our wonder ful state to these dangers again.
