Obama Address to the Nation on BP Oil Spill

15th of June 2010
 

"The millions of gallons of oil that has spilled into the [gulf of Mexico] are more like [an epidemic]. One that we will be fighting for months and even years." I can scam a fog / They made the planet

"Tonight I'd like to [lay out for y]ou, what are battle plan is going forward, what we're doing to clean up the oil, what we're doing to help our neighbours in the gulf." You'll fail

"And sadly, no matter how effective our response is, there will [be more oil] and more damage before this siege is done." Oil on me

"...that living is now in jeopardy. I've talked [to shrimp]ers and fishermen who don't know how they're going to support their families this year.".No shit

"I will meet with the Chairman of BP and inform him that he is to set aside whatever resources are required to compen[sate the worker]s and business owners who have been harmed as a result of this company's recklessness." They go with this

"The plan will be designed by states, local communities, tribe[s, fishermen], businesses, conservationists and other gulf residents." Then the ships

"Countries like China are investing in clean energy jobs and industries that should be here [in America]. Each day we send nearly one billion dollars of our wealth to foreign countries for their oil." A crime in it

"As we speak old factories are [reopening] to produce wind turbines, people are going back to work installing energy efficient windows and small businesses are making solar panels." Here to bore you

"As recover from this recession the transition to clean energy has the potential to grow our economy and create millions of job but only if we a[ccelerate] that transition, only if we seize the moment." Heal the loss

"When i was a candidate for this office I laid out a set of principals that would [move our country] towards energy independence." You fuck our womb

"There's some who believe we can't afford those costs right now. I say [we can't afford] not to change how we produce and use energy." Gulf, thank you

"The same thing was [said about our ability t]o harness the science and technology to land a man safely on the surface of the moon." The Lord God I bless

"It took place after Katrina and it took place a few weeks ago at the beginning of the most difficult season these fisherman have ever faced. And still they came and they prayed. For as a priest and [former fisherman] once said of the tradition, the blessing is not that God has promised to remove all obstacles and dangers." And then we shift them off

"What sees us through, what has always seen us through is our strength, our resilience [and our unyielding faith] that something better awaits us if we summon the courage to reach for it." Faith, you lean not on it
