Well. If anyone knows about sucking, it would be the big O.

[Retired Greyhound]

Obama just sucks.

Period.

But straw ITSELF soaks it up........

So will some peat mosses.

I’ve watched videos on YouTube of some guys demonstrating how hay attached oil to it.

So what if it gets heavier as a result?

But after an accident in federal waters the federal government, which has a plan to save the entire planet from greenhouse gases, had no plan to save the Gulf from a single gushing well, with the possible exception of finger-pointing. - IBD Editorials

Finally, Obama accidentally stumbles across the first real idea to help out on record. I say let him try. We could actually be surprised.

Didn’t he do blow.

Aren’t there those here who state he’s gay..? He could suck chrome off a trailer hitch, is what some have told me...

Here’s a video link about the straw/hay demo I posted earlier: http://vodpod.com/watch/3596378-raw-video-could-hay-cleanup-oil-spill

Why wouldn’t the oil be easier to collect if it weren’t mixed with dispersant?

[Raebie]

Why not? Sucking is something he excels at.

No one was expecting him to personally apply a straw; he sounds more like a wise-cracking 11 year-old than a mature adult.

[Canedawg]

LMAO!

This thread has great potential.

[w1andsodidwe]

How does he know? Has he tried? I really think he sucks quite a bit.

[MrEdd]

They used hay on the big spills in the 70s.

[Soothesayer]

He probably tried it and decided that oil tasted too yucky.

Stupid is as stupid talks... enough said.

[SandRat]

Why not? You suck at everything else O-Bozo.

AND IT WORKED TOO!
