What floors me is the locals, shocked & outraged that oil is on their beach. Hello! When you allow 4000 offshore oil wells to do business in the Gulf of Mexico, don't be surprised when disaster arrives. I'm sure there are people who are outraged who were amongst those yelling Drill Baby Drill @ the RNC. Also those calling for smaller government, who are now saying the Government is not responding enough.
Which is it? One politician said it's just one oil rig that failed, thousands of others are not a problem.
Now we see the reality of "just one" oil rig going bad.
I understand BP is saying they will use chemical dispersant even though the EPA said no more. This is where Obama needs to step up. BP is not calling the shots. If they are told not to use chemicals anymore, then impound the chemicals. Ground the spray planes & fine them $1 million bucks per infraction.
BP has done enough damage already.
In fact, I think they will not recover from this catastrophic disaster. BP will fold & probably reopen under a different name. Their pledge to honor valid claims for losses will probably not come to fruition, once they realize the magnitude.
The reason they don't declare the actual volume of the spill is to limit their own liability. They know. They just don't want us to know.
#Countdown Scientist-Kirschenfeld: "Dispersants are very toxic, glad that EPA has told BP that it must use less toxic chemicals"

IT'S TIME FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA TO DECLARE THE GULF A NATIONAL EMERGENCY AND REMOVE CONTROL OF THIS DISASTER FROM BP, THEY HAVE DONE ENOUGH DAMAGE AT THEIR OWN CRIME SCENE. IT CAN EVEN BE SEEN IN SPACE GROWING OUT OF CONTROL.NOAA IS DUE TO RELEASE HURRICANE PERDICTION CHARTS BY JUNE 1ST- ALL OF THE GULF NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO BE PREPARED FOR WHAT HAPPENS IF A HURRICANE MOBILIZES THE OIL SLICK AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF GALLONS OF DISPERSANT.202-456-1414 ( and yes you can write to him on the Whitehouse website too...it's up to you.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I wrote a post over at the Enigma Cafe ( my other blog...) and I decided the post there-letter to prez was better than just being angry here..so I removed my anger above...sorry folks....
I think it's really hit..that I won't ever be able to show the white beaches that I loved and grew up with...I just wanted to show them to my son someday...but that's not really more...I know that is selfish..and I know that I am worried about friends in the gulf...and that I can't help them..and it is so heartwrenching...
Question: Why the hell is the reporter out on a small boat w no lifejacket on? You can see it getting pitched about on choppy water. Don't they have safety regs??? She was on the job.
I thought all along the whole chemical dispersant approach was to sweep the problem under the rug, or in this case under the surface of the ocean. Problem is it is not designed to be used subsurface.... so they really have no idea what the long term effects will be.

Jindal should leave the GOP and apologize for being part of the party of Greedy Oily Pedophiles.
