Drill Baby Drill, huh?

Government officials said late Wednesday night that oil might be leaking from a well in the Gulf of Mexico at a rate five times that suggested by initial estimates.


This is looking like it's going to be one of the worse oil spills in recent history. Right up there with the Exxon Valdez. If it hits land, it's going to be one clusterfuck of a mess.
