Hands Across the Sand-Join us to stop near shore Oil Drilling In Florida Waters

[Bobby J]

As we know, the oil people and their pawns will tell us that the technology has come SO far that spills will not happen! Well here is another article about a current spill that they CAN'T STOP! So much for the lies!
Call for action as oil spill gushes | The Australian

So this is what we get with a modern oil rig.....

"The disaster has now entered its ninth week after the failure at the weekend to plug the spill, which has seen oil spew into the Timor Sea at an estimated rate of up to 400 barrels a day. "

Thanks for posting that Jack. I imagine 400 barrels a day would make our pretty white beaches look pretty black!
I can see a bunch of guys in suits standing around going, "Hmmm, it was not supposed to do that. I wonder how we fix this here thingy?"

I was talking to a friend today who moved to santa barbara. He told me that they call the oil derricks the casinos, because they are all lit up at night. He also told me that when you have an on shore breeze.... you smell them!!!!
If they have their way, forget emerald coast, just say industrial beach!

It has come to my attention

It has come my attention that the Governor might call a special session in December to take up the "high speed rail" issue. Evidently the Governor only needs ONE week notice to call a special session. They might do this a few weeks before Christmas because everyone will be occupied with the holidays. It is very likely the singular purpose of this is to get the oil issue pushed through.

HANDS ACROSS THE SAND will be designed to be implemented in a weeks notice to all Floridians on Thanksgiving weekend or December if necessary. Our website will be up by this Friday for all information regarding Hands Across The Sand.

Hands Across The Sand could become the largest public gathering in the history of Florida

Hands Across The Sand
NO OIL in our Waters
NO OIL on our Beach
