From Mother Jones Magazine, which has the credibility of the Soviet Pravda, or Ted Turner’s CNN. Look at the source! Jeesh!

Really, Mother Jones? Not a source I would believe if they said the sun came up every morning.

Sometimes I'll but a Rolling Stone magazine just to see what the enemy thinks.

Your comparison of Mother Jones to Pravda is dead on target. Pisses me off when propaganda from an ambulance chaser, printed in a leftist rag, is used on this forum to propagate opinion.

I have said it till I'm blue in the face on many of these BP-Spill threads, the loss of life is regrettable in the extreme. The spill itself is horrible, although IMHO the end result will be somewhat akin to the Exxon-Valdez predictions of total environmental disaster. Bad, but nowhere near the catastrophic event now being promulgated everywhere.

Most probably mistakes were made and a short cut or two taken that hindsight (20/20) tells us should not have been taken. My sincerest hope in all of this, is that FReepers not add fuel to a RAT Crisis which will be used for unimaginably dire consequences.

You can take that tack if you want but most of this has already been published in the Wall Street Journal. The fight between the Transocean guy and the BP guy has already been well documented.

I subscribed to them 30+ years ago, when I was a teenager.

Then I grew up. Dropped them well before I finished college.
