Comments on BP pouring oil on troubled waters?

What I find astonishing, is that BP apparently didn't have any mechanism in place for just this scenario. Why didn't they look ahead and put something in place just in case an oil leak like this happened?

But just think how the economy would be suffer

if all of those PR people are unemployed!  They would be starving themselves at the weight loss resort and they wouldn't have a chance to come up with such great slogans as:

 

"We deal with slime-balls all the time, so a few things have rubbed off on us."

or

"Now ask yourselves: Aren't our accents worth a major environmental disaster?"

 or

"Let's flip for who pays: Heads you lose, Tails you lose!"

The last thing they need to concern themselves with is their image! They made the mess they need to clean it up! sam
