I live in Tampa and yesterday the smell was so bad, you didn't want to go outside. Smells like heavy diesel fuel. Second time the wind has been just right to bring that smell inland.
The thought of all those poor birds and other animals makes me sick to my stomach. Imagine a duck landing in the water, just like he has his entire life, and suddenly, he is covered in this horrible substance. He cannot fly away - the more he thrashes, the worse it is. he doesn't undertand what is happening but he is now trapped and will spend the next few days dying an agonizing death. Why? So that some asswipes can become even richer than they already were drilling oil out of the ocean. Drill, baby, drill? I'd like to see Sarah Pallin and all the rest of those idiots tossed right into the middle of that muck. They'd be singing a different tune.
