And when BP hasn't been Mickey Mousing, it's been nickel-and-diming all efforts to contain the damage. BP's been contracting pleasure craft (the ski & fishing boats of doctors, lawyers, etc., who use their boats for family outings) to clean up the crude instead of the commercial fishing and charter boats of those whose living is made in those waters. And too d@mned few, too. If you've wondered why oil-soaked boom isn't replaced, leaving oil to soak marshes, beaches and barrier islands, that's why.
