Damn you, environmental terrorists!!

I thought the one rig exploding was an anomaly, that these were perfectly safe and stopping drilling was irresponsible to address safety concerns.

It exploded because we're not drilling enough.

That doesn't mean there's a spill. It's early yet but TFA has no indications of oil spilling.
 
2010-09-02 11:44:18 AM
Drill, baby, drill!

WHY HASN'T N0BAMA ALREADY PLUGGED THIS LEAK!!

Stupid Obama! That's what he gets for meddling in the oil industry!

/i heard this argument is going 3 to 1 in Vegas

While hopefully true, that's not really the point.

Once you pop, you can't stop.

This is bad news...for Obama.

ZOMG, double rigs! Double rigs all the way spilling oil.

I do appreciate that 90% of the submissions are from the same CNN link. Why did the mods decide to let identical links submitted? If I recall it wasn't always that way.
 
2010-09-02 11:49:52 AM
Crap.

That was true early on last time too.

Obviously, we need to drill closer to shore.

SHUT. DOWN. EVERYTHING.

I submitted this with an identical headline.

Um, whoops? Guess it's time to get back on TF.

There are ways around it if you are an HTML ninja.

Seems like most of the workers got off ok, though, which is good. Here's hoping for the remainder.

I wonder if we'll have another massive oil spill?

At the risk of jumping to conclusions, I think it's clear that this is the fault of ecoterrorists aligned with Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, and Barack Obama.
 
2010-09-02 11:55:00 AM
huh.
 
2010-09-02 11:55:04 AM
I liked my headline better.

Am I evil for thinking "I'd better post this to Fark" upon hearing about it?

/Actually, upon hearing about it, my first thought was "Okay, where's the info"
 
2010-09-02 11:55:17 AM
Oh Shiat, version 2.0.
 
2010-09-02 11:55:31 AM
I thought all the hurricanes they forecast for this season would have prevented any more drilling.
 
2010-09-02 11:55:31 AM
Barack Obama hates Black Liquid.
 
2010-09-02 11:55:36 AM
F*#@CK!

Come on, again??
 
2010-09-02 11:55:38 AM
well I'm more inclined to get a job shoveling up oil now that it's getting a little cooler out.

We've always been at war with South of Lousiana.

Quick! Cut taxes before it gets any worse!
 
2010-09-02 11:55:51 AM
Hopefully this ends better than the last one. Waiting for more info, but this ought to let us know more about whether the last one was just BP's fark up, or whether it was a symptom of an industry-wide problem...

Environmental destruction in the name of profit: your favorite thing!
 
2010-09-02 11:56:01 AM
Is this a BP well or some other company?
 
2010-09-02 11:56:01 AM

2010-09-02 11:56:05 AM

Well the man has two faces...
