Description

The cartoon shows God and several angels in heaven. One of the angels peers down through the clouds and reports to God that there is a frightful mess down in the Gulf of Mexico. God replies that he wouldn't have bothered making birds, fish and animals if he had known how man was going to turn out. Refers to the terrible oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico that is threatening to ruin huge stretches of coastline and is killing marine life.
