It only served notice that whoever wrote this editorial lacks the initiative to do any research and reeks of a complete disregard for the facts of the matter. I guess I should get used to people like yourself who are paid to pontificate opinions about different issues without bothering to gather many of the facts. But you have gone far beyond the usual petty political implications this time. Even a moron, much less and editor, should be able to see the glaring inconsistencies and misrepresentations dished out by our government agencies over this spill as well as the massive harm that has befallen the victims because of it. There definitely was a massive gasoline leak into the ground.
Gasoline is composed, in part, of extremely dangerous chemicals.
These chemicals are showing up in people's homes, and there is evidence that this has been happening for many years. People who live in the area of the spill are definitely getting seriously ill. There are hundreds and hundreds of good people who are suffering great hardship because of this spill. Not only are these unfortunate victims getting nonsense from the government, but you take it upon yourself to criticize these people for being fed up with all of EPA's propaganda. These victims are not a band of co-conspirators trying to extort money from the government.
