“I’m not familiar with the safety recommendations.”
—Former Secretary of Natural Resources Scott Angelle (now a candidate for the Public Service Commission in Tuesday’s election), responding to Congressman Ed Markey (D-Mass.) during questioning about the BP Deepwater Horizon explosion and subsequent disastrous oil spill.
“You haven’t analyzed the recommendations?”
—Congress Ed Markey.
“I have not.”
—Angelle.
“Given your job, don’t you think you should’ve looked at those safety recommendations?
—Markey.
“I have not analyzed those recommendations, sir.”
—Angelle.
“Could you analyze them and give a set of responses to the safety recommendations back to the committee?”
—Markey.
“Sir, I have not analyzed all those recommendations.”
—Angelle.



What a clown. The sad thing is that if he isn’t elected to the PSC, where he can let his ignorance shine on further, that Piyush will just stick him back at DNR where he has been such a magnificent failure in the past.
Angelle could have saved himself a lot of time if he just put his fingers in his ears and said,” La, la, la, la.”
