BP Resumes Work to Plug Oil Leak After Facing Setback – NYTimes.com
One would imagine they don’t suck this bad at drilling the stuff. Only at dealing with the consequences of their short-sightedness.

Back to reality.
Obama, the education teacher.
…The kind of education a kid gives themselves on the streets or in jail that is apparently.
So much for improving education and making it more accessible to everyone, everywhere. He couldn’t have had something in place by now to avoid travesties like this? Oh right, he was too busy arrogantly putting all of his eggs in one basket for 15 months and not-so-secretly giving oral sex to Big Oil.

I can’t believe he is backtracking on admitting he got rid of her. It’s the first sign that he actually gives a shit and he’s taking it back. Douche.

Gulf Oil Spill: Obama Says Fed Gov’t in Charge of Efforts to Contain Leak, Not BP – ABC News
Clearly. Because they are ones throwing the press conferences and telling the world they are pretty much letting BP do everyone because the US government isn’t equipped to do so.
They’re is such an unprecedented level of activity on the part of the government that every where coastal residents go they trip over someone who is there to help. A veritable of flurry of activity.
Sure.
I think this link says it all: The US government at work saving the Gulf Coast

Waaaah wehhh wwaaaaaaa.
Sometimes Obama, who infers that he thinks the ocean is sacred in his comments, thinks those “folks down in Louisiana expressing frustrations” are being unfair to him.
Poor Barack. People that count on him to protect them, people he let down, are pointing out that he’s slacking on the job and leaving their asses hanging out int the wind. The nerve.
Life is so unfair! Boo hoo.

U.S. Deepwater Drilling’s Future – Council on Foreign Relations
A few analysts even contend the oil spill could become a deepwater version of Three Mile Island, the 1979 accident that brought an end to nuclear power plant construction in the United States, and from which the industry has yet to recover.
We can only hope.
Especially if they can’t clean up after themselves.

Now how much would you pay?
Hint: It’ll be in the Billions (with a capital B)and it’ll be coming out of the wallets of the very tax-payers who are now going to be exposed to this toxic mess for the rest of their lives.

Can I tell you how much it kills me that a Republican with Presidential aspirations seems like he’s actually paying attention to damage control and protecting the people who elected him tons upon tons more than that guy who I volunteered for even though I had my reservations???
Argh. Fuck it. Somebody, anybody, just do… something!

BP Still Using Dispersant It Was Told to Drop – NYTimes.com
These guys are really something.
BP’s first priority is to camouflage the amount of oil that has been spilled and control the press as much as possible. Period.
Sure the US government is in charge down there. Sure it is. Keep telling yourself that. Clearly they don’t feel any real pressure from the US to change anything they are doing.
Someone Please Fire the Coast Guard Admiral in charge of Cleaning of the Oil Spill?
I’m watching a press conference on CNN right now. The Coast Guard guy keeps saying something about how BP has the means of production and they should be the ones cleaning up the site.
Clearly that’s not working, dumb ass.
I don’t think he really see the gravity of the solution. He sounds like a BP employee. He sounds like the government isn’t able to clean up the oil spill and they don’t even have the knowledge to be able to direct BP in any meaningful way.
