3. God Bless America and all of that
I can't figure out what people thought an oil spill was going to look like. Birds are covered in muck?? Well yeah. Did we not learn that from the Valdez? Or any other oil spill??

But you know, these are the same people who fight against sex ed in school because they're perfect and God would never "punish" them with an unplanned pregnancy or any other "unlucky" event.
