I’ll type slowly so you can keep up with me.
The dutch would not have stopped the oil spewing into the gulf.
They would have collected the spewed oil with their skimmer ships, processed it to 10 parts per million (ooops, EPA says you cannot return the water with 10 parts per million into the gulf so it can evaporate, better to leave the sludge in the water and let it spread.) and haul the separated oil back to refineries.
That’s what they did in the North Atlantic keeping the size of the Oil Slick to less than 1 square mile while work was done to cap the well.
That’s called MITIGATION OF DAMAGE. That’s what the President’s Job Was to do.
That’s what the President didn’t do.
No, he had the coast guard hold up skimmers and prevent them from skimming so they could make sure enough life preservers were on the ships.
He had the EPA hold up Bobby Jindal from creating protective barriers in Louisana so that sludge that wasn’t skimmed by the Dutch Skimmer Ships could foul up the Bayous.
Face it, he’s in over his head and it shows.
