                     Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska...  

     "Spill Baby Spill": BP and RIG will have to pay for an oil spill that "eclipses"
      the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska...  First, look at the chart of Exxon back in
     1989.  The spill occurred in a strong bull market.    Litigation lasted more than 20 years.
     XOM has paid only a fraction of the damages its drunken captain caused.   BP will
     probably escape in the same way.  RIG's reputation as a drilling contractor has
     been badly shaken.  I would think its stock is a better short.  Note the weakness it
     showed internally in the months before this disaster.    Sadly, although remote shut-off
     valves are required in Europe, Congress has not got around to requiring them in the
     US.  Watch to see if a movement for this occurs.     

    And watch Obama.  He has backed Goldman Sachs and its CEO in the past, calling him
     a fine fellow and good businessman while taking $1 million from them early in the 2008
     Presidential campaign.  Also of interest, Obama caved in to pressures from Congressmen
     beholden to oil interests and recently has taken the position that offshore drilling is safe
     enough to be expanded.     March 31, 2010 Obama: To Expand Offshore Oil Drilling

            Will he back-peddle?   Of course.  I predict you will see him make a speech soon about
     the oil spill, which he will start with him saying, "I have always stood for protecting the ocean beach
     environment, that is why I am today...."   More interesting, will be whether any of his
     liberal supporters dare to criticize him for having too little backbone to stand up to the
     country's three most powerful lobbyists, the Health Insurance, Wall Street and
     Big Oil lobbies...
