some of what Obama is smoking.  Some of his quotes from this article.

"In a newly optimistic tone, President Barack Obama promised Monday that "things are going to return to normal" along the stricken Gulf Coast and the region's fouled waters will be in even better shape than before the catastrophic BP oil spill."

"He declared, "I am confident that we're going to be able to leave the Gulf Coast in better shape than it was before."

About as empty as the promises we had to rebuild New Orleans after katrina.

I want to know if he has a magic wand that he's going to wave and restore the marshlands?

...and when?

The latest inversion of reality.

How can one state this and at the same time expect others to believe it? I guess someday it indeed will be better shape.

So...what he said could be true.?

Poor Hamlet, I disagree. Things can be either good or bad, and just saying something is or will be so, ain't gonna make it so.

The amount of cooperation agreed to and financial support from the responsible should be unprecedented but warranted and timelines adhered to by some enforcement from legal procrastination. 

A difference made.

The gulf coast will someday return to normal. But, it won't be with the help of Obama or his administration. It will be done by the tough folks that live there. Just as they did after Katrina.

There are parts of Louisiana that will NEVER return to normal.  Once those marshes are destroyed, you have an entire ecosystem that is gone, cannot be brought back.

Oyster companies that *were* in business (some owned by multiple generations of families) are idled.  The oyster beds are closed.  Even if they are reopened, there is still a chance that they won't recover for a very long time (if you bring up a bag of oysters and a tar ball gets iin there, the whole bag is inedible).

Haven't we all learned by now that if you state something as fact often and long enough it just becomes fact - Isn't that the way it works Smiley
