Guard watches coast for oil slick's first wave

Man that picture just makes me really sad.

The clips with the birds covered in oil are hard to watch. I don't know how people can just film stuff like that and not try to save the animals. I guess I would not make a ver good reporter.

I was thinking . . .

Many states including mine wanted to open up off-shore drilling and had their state senators petition the government to remove the moratorium on off-shore drilling. The President agreed to lift the ban, if I recall right?

Enron and BP are architects of the cap-and-trade legislation / ponzi scheme for taxing and regulating one of the most common elements on our planet, carbon dioxide. The is for you Joe Theisman Fan, PLANTS BREATHE carbon dioxide and we exhale it. So these assholes are creating one of the best rackets ever (next to religion), taxing the air. And you liberal schmucks will go along with it because you feel guilty for destroying the Earth. The rest are just ignorant and are being played like cheap tricks, by fear / war mongering politicians who get their marching orders from their Gang Bankster overlords. Enron got taken down for cooking their books, but BP is still alive and kicking.

Oh, this is the same BP that had the CIA overthrow Mohammad Mosaddegh because he nationalized the Persian oil fields that were controlled by . . . British Petroleum. But you think the Persians hate us because Washington supports Israel and they hate freedom and the American way of life.

Barry Soetoero, or whatever the eff he's calling himself these days, gets on the TV and tells the American sheeple that we need to get off fossil fuels, replace them with windmills and solar power, pass climate legislation, and basically tells us that he can't fix the leak any time soon. Guess he can't?!

We can fix the leak. We could have and still can burn off the oil on the surface. It's standard industry procedure.

Or perhaps this is all just a coincidence? Never let a catastrophe go to waste.

It kinda looks like abstract art...something beautiful yet ugly. Definitely sucks for marine life.

yep.. the photo is from Alabama.. about 90 miles from the spill

it almost looks like sesame oil with soy and spice

there can be excess carbon dioxide and water vapor as well, I believe nasa's climatology dept said the vapor was an even bigger risk, idk I'd have to look at it again.. it was a few years ago that I read about it.. they do some of the readings right here in MD

I watched some of the hearing from yesterday with the CEO of BP and those ass wipes (both parties) that asked him questions. First why are we having any hearing when we don't even know the facts yet? Second why are we spending so much time on hearings when the focus needs to be on clean up and getting this thing shut down. Third the way they talked to him and the stupid ass questions they asked was a joke and they just wanted to get in some points with voters. What do they want him to say at this point with all the legal issues surrounding this spill? Most of them are lawyers and they know he cannot answer 99% of these questions for legal reason but they still hounded him and ask the questions any ways. I'm all for hitting BP but this is not the way to get that done and those people sitting on that panel looked like big a$$ holes.

Actually that's inaccurate. See the end of this article-

"It is clear that Tony has made remarks that have upset people," Svanberg told Sky News television, adding that Hayward was "now handing over" daily operations to BP Managing Director Bob Dudley.

But BP spokeswoman Sheila Williams said Svanberg was misunderstood and that only a transition to Dudley, an American with 30 years in the oil business, had begun.

"Hayward is very much in charge until we've stopped the leak," she told the AP on Saturday.

I'm so glad Heyward was watching Yacht races in England today while Obama was out on the golf course. Fail. :doh:
