I Got's A Gusher!

From Jim Geraghty's Morning Jolt:

I'm no engineer, but I'm rather struck that we can build something that can drill so deep, so far from land, and yet not have a good way to shut the darn thing off if something goes wrong, not even if we give some of the best minds in the subject a month and a ton of cash. The footage of the Gulf coast is horrifying, those helpless sea birds heartbreaking, and around the ten-thousandth time that Axelrod reminds you that Energy Secretary Steven Chu won the Nobel Prize, you start wondering, "Hey, if we took his and Obama's Nobels and stuck 'em together, any chance they would make a decent plug for that hole?"

I'm no engineer either, but I'll take any opportunity to post this Nobel deserving video. BP. Beltway Punks:

BP "Beltway Punk" Gibbs Twit-Slapped by Mrs. Todd Palin

Josh Painter at Texas For Sarah Palin gives us the latest sabbath Gibbsmackin' by Governor Mrs. Palin :

SUNDAY, MAY 23, 2010
Sarah Palin to 'Beltway Bob' Gibbs: Dispute this!

"During his time in the Senate and while running for president, Obama received a total of $77,051 from the oil giant and is the top recipient of BP PAC and individual money over the past 20 years... Dispute these facts."

Josh Painter gives the White House BP/unks an additional boom1-smack:

Boom! The Palin Blackberry leaves a mark. Gov. Palin is so living inside the White House that they should be charging her rent.

I'm wondering if rent is actually due here, seems like Governor Palin owns it -- and them -- more and more each day.
