Obama's Gulf War –
What's Another Oil Mishap?
Bobby Jindal's job stimulus plan

What's another oil mishap, if it isn't BP's?
Just a small operator who aspires to be bad?
Not a deepwater devil defying oddsmakers.
With regard to risk taking? A mere undergrad,

Whose mishap's so common that we've barely noticed,
Drilling where Salazar's rules don't apply.
Shallow is easy. That's why there's so many,
But it's hard to tell which spill belongs to which guy.

At least Jindal's solved his job stimulus problem.
Drill 'em and spill 'em and bill 'em for berms
That thousands of locals rebuild and maintain,
Then with their profits buy him several more terms.

"Fire in the hole" is his rallying cry.
Alert the oil skimmers. His berms sank again.
Forget moratoriums. They'll drill when he says to.
Pigs play by his rules when they're in his pigpen.

You think that the White House won't quickly take notice?
How soon can Chu engineer BP's next blast?
Is Mitch? also behind BP p.l.c.'s blackmail?
All plans to outlaw them are threats of the past.
