I’m still holding out for OilBama to try to blast it shut with a nuke.It is the worst possible solution, the one most damaging to America, and therefore the one The One is most apt to use.
With luck he can diddle daddle long enough to have to do it in a blind panic just before a major hurricane lances into America’s soft white underbelly.
Such a nuke would:
• Replace an 18” dia pipe leaking oil with a quarter mile wide crater over bedrock shattered all the way down to the full oil deposit.
• Violate international nuclear weapon treaties.
• Flash abundant amounts of sea water into steam both by the bomb itself and the exposed hot crust/magma.
• Provide a thermal turbocharge boost to convert an ordinary hurricane into a continent crossing hypercane.
• Inundate America’s breadbasket farmland with a deluge of radioactive, oily saltwater all the way up to the Canadian border.
And as a special bonus he could then use the results to ban all oil drilling and eliminate America’s entire nuclear arsenal.
From his viewpoint, what’s not to love?
Ain't that the truth. He sits and thinks deeply to himself: wwJSd? (what would John Stewart (have me) do?
This is no doubt a dumb question, but I admit I’m too dumb to understand Obama, so here goes: Does the oil act as a lubricant to the faults and would a leak this size affect them
