Congressman Gene Taylor (D-Ipshit), who is a genius,
said this weekend that people shouldn't be so worried about the enormous oil spill in the Gulf because he flew over it and "it's not as bad as I thought."
Taylor told a group of reporters waiting at Atlantic Aviation he was less concerned about the spill after witnessing its movement firsthand.
"This isn't Katrina. It's not Armageddon," Taylor said. "A lot of people are scared and I don't think they should be."
He described the spill as a light, rainbow sheen with patches that look like chocolate milk.
That sounds not only like no big deal, but also DELICIOUS!
"It's breaking up naturally; that's a good thing. The fact that it's a long way from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, that's a great thing, because it gives it time to break up naturally," he said.
Oh, good. Someone tell BP they
needn't worry about paying for the clean-up (and
buying off coastal residents). It's going to break up naturally.
