"Drill baby drill" cake takes the, uh, cake

ANCHORAGE (AP) — The director of the Minerals Management Service in Alaska is apologizing to colleagues for having a cake at a recent meeting with the words “Drill, Baby, Drill” on it.

In an e-mail Thursday to agency employees nationwide, Regional Director John Goll says it was wrong and expressed regret that he let that happen in his office.

The issue of offshore drilling has been in the public eye since an oil rig explosion April 20 off the coast of Louisiana that triggered a massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

The New York Times reported the cake was served at a staff meeting soon after Interior Secretary Ken Salazar proposed reorganizing the Minerals Management Service in response to the spill.

Calls to Goll’s office and the national agency office were not immediately returned.

BP Cake Looks Delicious (PHOTO)
According to Reddit, this cake was found in a grocery store in New Orleans. At least they're starting to have a sense of humor about everything. And on top of sticking it to BP, this cake looks delicious. We could eat oil spills every day.

2. This is the guy who refused to set guidelines in Alaska and drove scientists out of his office:

A Government Accountability Office report found that the Alaska office “deliberately avoided establishing consistent guidelines for determining whether future leases would cause significant environmental impacts in the Arctic.” Many scientists left the office, "frustrated that their concerns over environmental threats from drilling had been ignored."
