Pensacola Tar Ball from the Gulf Oil spill

Here is a tarball that washed up on Pensacola Beach courtesy of BP and President Obama. Notice how thick and dark this stuf is against the background of prisitine quartz-like sand and a native sea shell of the Emerald Coast here in the Panhandle of Northwest Florida. We need the White House to lift those hoary Jones Act restrictions against specialized oil skimming vessels with foreign flags of convenience just as President Bush did in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. We need to protect our wetlands for wildlife and aquculture that supplies us with bounty from the sea. . But most all we need BP and President Obama to stop the undersea oil gusher, , and save more than 20,000 jobs engaged in oil production onthe Gulf Coast to make us energy independent of the dangerous elements in the Middle East skimming billions of our wealth.
