Videos taken in Alabama by jsdart show blobs of oil at Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge, a 7,000 acre wildlife habit established by Congress in 1980, and an interview with the mayor of nearby Orange Beach who is critical of federal clean-up efforts.

Tony Kennon, mayor of Orange Beach, Ala., calls clean-up efforts "almost comical" (0:32) and says the lack of communication between federal, state and local officials and BP leaves him feeling (2:25) "like I'm in the land of Oz."

Seeing the animals who can't get out of the oil makes me think of the tar pits that were killing all the animals including the dinasaurs.
BP had better get a grip about the disaster they've caused to the USA. Plus, they've ruined the lives of the fishermen who are now unemployed. Will 20 billion help all the people who live there?
We have so Meany diverse ways on how NOT to use gas and oil, so why don’t we??
NO MORE DRILLING, help save the earth
