Like Father, Like Son

I was listening to a CD of Comic Relief '91 (don't ask), and Bobcat Goldthwait spoke about Daddy George Bush's delayed response in responding to the Exxon Valdez oil spill disaster.

While Daddy's bungling of the Hurricane Andrew response in 1992 is well documented, I totally forgot about the Valdez.

God bless Google.

Above all, Exxon avoided responsibility and only wanted to control imagery. By April 2, the oil had fouled 8oo miles of beach, and President George W. Bush had declined to federalize the cleanup.
