Have you noticed, when we talk about oil shortages it's always in "barrels" but disasters are always quoted in gallons?
As in "hmmmmm, that's not so much"
compared to
"Holly Sh!T! It's really spewing" (or "well, they ARE recovering a lot of it.")
Probably doesn't matter unless your covered in it.

A US barrel equals 33.5 gallons

As I understand it, the Interior Dept. doc referenced by the obama folks to support the long ban, six month, was allegedly signed by experts. The doc was reviewed and signed my legit experts and returned to the Dept of Interior (Dept Inferior in this case). Once the Dept of Inferior got the doc back, they added the six month thingie after the fact and then touted the doc as "Gospel" from the experts.

Nice to see the obama Dept of Inferior get a well deserved slap down!!!
