And pls. do pardon me for being "old school" about sloppy news writing.

I live in SW Ala. and have watched the Gulf Coast fisheries being devastated time after time.
We used to have the most beautiful and easily accessible pristine beaches where anyone could enjoy them.
Now developers and casinos have taken over most of the area, pollution is killing of the fishing,
the shrimpers are going broke.
All we need is this oil spill.
From BP no less, who, under Palin's watch, managed to keep using un-inspected leaking oil pipes all over the Tundra.
