Mondo Macondo and The Wall Street Bull

Their stock price rebounded in late trading yesterday, Wall street reported. Tony Hayward stepped down, sort of, to take over one of BPs operations in Russia and a new American CEO took over as BP has been "sucessful" in plugging the leak in Macondo. This mega media spin is a centrifugal bamboozlement blender, churning a super grande frappe' of lies !
But since we love everything spinned, centrifuged so it becomes an unrecognizable blend of whatever... and because the masses voraciously ingest this bland blend  with gusto, there's a great market for lattes, frappes, liquid grass, mushed fruits and now:  blended BP(Bull Poop)

  • Bull Poop! Stock price rebounded? What about the rebounding of life in the gulf?
  • Bull Poop! Tony Hayward, the CIO (Chief Incompetence Officer) is rewarded with a cushy assignment and intact benefits!
  • Bull Poop! A new CEO who is "American" has been put at the helm. This is supposed to make us feel better? The damage is done and he willl protect and feed the flow of Bull Poop!!
  • Bull Poop! Not a word about the shrimpers and native inhabitants whose lives depended on the Gulf. Have their lives rebounded?
The Bovine Poop will continue to flow upon a people intent on being silent in a dark (albeit temporarily comfortable) habitat well covered by BP since its inception.

Dear Mr President

Dear Mr President:


My family voted for you; with $ 300 billion about to be approved for more military spending, will you help my family a little? My son and my daughter have accumulated over a $150,000.00 in college loans; they have graduated and have been working hard to pay them; they cannot make ends meet; will you help them? Could you reduce the $300 Billion military budget by a few million (as I am sure there are other hard working students who could use the help). They would really appreciate it. By the way, my children do not own nukes and they are not terrorists. They can also make or enhance Powerpoint charts like the one I attach,  made by your own Military Command. They are very good, and could help.

We thank you for your kind Consideration!

The Morriss Marshall Family
