How do you rate the White House response so far to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill?
Good
Fair
Poor
In my opinion, it's poor. This crisis should be treated with urgency and every-day updates from the White House are necessary to help, not only the general public's anxiety, but the unfathomable conditions in the Gulf.

I wholeheartedly agree Petra. It's so disheartening.
Very disheartening, K.! I have just heard that Admiral Thad Allen of the Coast Guard will be holding daily press releases. Let's pray that this new attempt by BP will be successful. Yet, leakage will occur. :((
Petra...?
No Obits? Art Linkletter? Gary Coleman?
hahaha, G-man! Dealing with the oil spill has been depressing enough! ;)
Definitely POOR! Hmmm, perhaps we can create another category? (*&^!!
By the way, lurved your comment about Christmas in Connecticut!
So sad, Janeen! :((
When I saw your post about Christmas in Connecticut, it immediately lifted my spirits! :))
You already know how I feel-but I'll say it again POOR! It's like no one is in charge-or managing. Do you know other countries are willing to help with the equipment and stuff needed to clean up-but because of some old law (that can easily be lifted) they can't. The coast guard guy said well no one has asked for the law to be lifted-LIFT THE LAW! We need all the help we can get.
