		<description><![CDATA[The BEST scores were about 16 parts per million -- 8 times lethal levels of toxicity.  The worst tested results were over ONE HUNDRED TIMES AS TOXIC.  But that's not quite all of it yet.  Water taken from near one of the floating barriers designed to contain the oil spill EXPLODED during testing! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They're burning these creatures alive, rather than let rescuers go in and get them! ... By what right does BP order the U.S. Coast Guard to violate our Constitutional rights?  By what right does BP control the airspace above the Gulf?  Where do they get off telling U.S. citizens where we can or cannot be or take pictures? ... Now is the time to take action, and to firmly demand that our government do the same.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Validated, recent, first-hand accounts have wild dolphins t-boning a shark who was about to take a chomp out of a surfer, and then the entire pod gathering around that surfer and protecting him as he made his way back to shore.  Is slaughtering or abducting and enslaving them the way we ought to be repaying their friendship?]]></description>

Instead, enforce the moratorium by embargo, political means and, if necessary, by military force.  But do not make it even a little bit easier or reward that bad behavior.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And so it goes, one snout after another sticking their two cents in, making an appearance, acting concerned... Obama, Jindal, Palin... who needs 'em?  They're doing less than nothing.  Latest word from the Gulf is that clean-up efforts are a hodgepodge mishmash, a bunch of people running around aimlessly, uncoordinated and unsuccessful.  Meanwhile, private interests who are willing and capable and offering help are being turned away.  Nations that are offering help are being turned away.  And the longstanding Water Conservation Act that the EPA is supposed to be enforcing has been shoved under the bus at BP's direction.]]></description>

In fact, as we reported earlier in this ecological disaster, the EPA and BP are specifically prohibited from using it in that fashion by the Clean Water Act of 1972.]]></description>

Top Hat, Top Kill, talk of stopping it up with golf balls (as if a fluid under pressure wouldn't find its way through THAT filter?) and never much sense or likelihood of success in any of them.  At this point, one simply must wonder why BP is stalling.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The President claimed that BP's interests are aligned with that of the public interest to the extent that it is costing them a lot of money...  We must object, and loudly.  BP's interest in spending less money was what caused this in the first place.  Their desire to spend less money in cleanup is what caused millions of gallons of Corexit to be poured into the Gulf.  Their only interest is to reduce liability.  OUR interest is to protect our oceans and the ecology.  These are NOT the same goals, Mr. President.]]></description>
