#4 Kudos to those engineers for solving a hell of a hard problem in one of the harshest environments on the planet, and doing so well ahead of expectations.

As for cleanup, nature will disperse it. No need to do much more except put out more booms that the Obama administration sat on, dredge berms that the Obama administration stopped, and run skimmers that the Obama administration blocked.

#6 B.O. should be claiming the credit sometime tomorrow.

He only has so long now to capitalize on the disaster if the theory is that he's stalling only to make it worse so he can turn this incident into more moronic legislation.

I expect the second half of his victory speech to be along the lines of "now we need to install some more ineffective, moronic legislation that is only barely related to the disaster, will solve nothing, except the problem of not enough government workers to go around to create the necessary governmental fiefdoms." Of course, it will be couched in the proper liberal terminology, but that will be the essence of it.
