Good news and bad news, you can spin it however you want.

Good news: leak is stopped.

Bad news: lots of oil got out.

Good news: 75% of it has been dealt with by burning, skimming, dispersants, and mostly marine bacteria.

Bad news: The remaining 25% is still 5 times bigger than the Exxon Valdez spill.

Good news: Warm water and open beaches will handle that oil much better than the Alaskan environment did.

Bad news: All those oil eating bacteria also gobble up oxygen.

Good news: a few good hurricanes should slosh up the water and oxygenate it again.

Continue as needed until the next media frenzy gets started.

Hey everybody, look! Beyonce and Eminem are dating!
