I wonder what the Tea Party thinks about these rogue corporations, out of control, destroying shoreline communities in five states, killing wildlife and fauna, irreparably tarring the environment, and totaling entire renewable industries like fishing that co-existed and depended on our wet lands? Is their activism only limited only to carrying copies of the constitution in their breast pockets, interpreting and acting on unfounded fears about the second amendment, but backing down while the nation confronts a real threat to its security and economic future?
The South, which is includes the five states of the gulf coast, is the world's fifth largest economy. If the oil spill is not attended to there will be nothing left to hunt, nothing left to defend, and nobody left to pay taxes, whether how or low.
It's time for one America to confront these rogues, whether Transocean, BP, or Goldman, who muscle financial resources to leverage their greed and exploit profits by their ethical vices that the Tea Party apparently ignores as their fellowers and leaders bury their heads to leave a vital part of our liberty--our environment, our jobs, and our communities--undefended.
