One of my friends is letting it be known that President Obama is to be held personally responsible for the BP Oil Spill and that  because the President didn’t run down there and stick his finger in the hole to stop the oil from spilling out and causing – what Interior Secretary Ken Salazar  calls, “a very grave scenario”  -as far as my friend is concerned the White House’s has YET to respond.

You know, my friend needs to quit sucking on teabags and pull his head out of Faux Spews  backside and remember that people and the land and enviorment that they are part of and rely on are going to suffer and suffer big.

So here’s a song by my favorite storyteller/songwriter who doesn’t forget that real people are involved in ‘issues’ .

As my kids would say, Ronnie Ray is keeping it real.

Tears For The Delta ( Drill Baby Drill )

The day they drilled the well– it was money that they smelled

And the rest of the world—can– just go straight to hell.

There’s no money in the sun, and you just can’t pump the wind

But I never saw the sun— ever kill a pelican.

Oh now you’ll pay the cost—the burden is on you

Cause Mr. Oil behind closed doors—tells you what to do.

Chorus:

They have to drill baby drill

To kill baby kill

It’s how they get their thrills

Just sit back and take your pills

There’s nothing to see here.

It’s all under control

Go back inside, or take a ride

Just fill up before you go.

Second Verse:

The oil in Alaska still laps the shores

And buddy let me tell you, it’s been twenty years or more.

Supply and demand has been the command

Spread fear across the land

Like the sticky greed of man.

And when the sand is black with oil

And the singing birds are gone

How will you tell your children?

The way they used to sound.
