Conservative Myth: Hurricanes Didn't Cause Oil Spills

A compilation of conservatives repeating the lie that Hurricanes Katrina and Rita didn't cause major oil spills: Sen. McCain (R-AZ), Wall Street Journal writer Steve Moore, Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA), Secretary of the Interior Dirk Kempthorne, McCain spokeswoman Nancy Pfotenhauer, former Sen. Trent Lott (R-AL), and Sen. McCain (again).

I hope you partisan schmucks realize that Obama just said the same exact thing about Katrina on April 2, 2010, less than three weeks ago.

[lilkahle]

So are we supposed to just accept that you are right? Where is your proof? This video lacks absolutely nothing substantial for your argument *applauds* you are now just like other leading democrats.

So ironic. McCain was scheduled to meet w/ Bobby Jindal today in Louisiana. The meeting was canceled. I wonder if the cancellation had anything to do w/ 1/2million gallons of oil being spilled in the Mississippi river near downtown New Orleans @ 1:30AM CST last night. A 60 mile stretch of the river is now closed, city water is contaminated and since there was no containment early on, the oil is likely to leak out into the gulf marshes.

Uh... since you don't actually present any counterarguments, isn't this video useless? Are we meant to accept they are wrong just by implication?
