If this second attempt fails, it could take another 90 days to stop the gushing oil. This is really bad.

Its hard to watch a bunch of blow farts drilling another bunch of blow farts when they both failed at their jobs. Congress has no room to sit there and talk down to these guys when they have made such a mess of this country.

Good news is we have not really heard much about alot of oil coming on shore. I figured by now we would be seeing all these rescue efforts of birds an animals covered in oil but I have seen only a few.

Actually less oil is coming out and mostly natural gas. I guess the gulf oil piggy bank is not actually that deep. Stupak get em', blow out preventer with a hydraulic leak and a dad battery? WTH?

I think its kinda funny to watch these Oil company guys, cause I mean they are so use to lying to the public, media, shareholders, friends, family, wives, etc...about anything to make a dollar, but they absolutely know they cant lie to congress cause they will get prosecuted, so they do the only other thing they know how...blame somebody else...pathetic

They have the second, smaller containment dome readied and it will be deployed today...the flow of oil has reduced due to an increase in natural gas coming from the well. My theory says that this is because there isn't as much oil in the well as they thought...but at any rate, it buys the response team precious time.

The dome is expected to be in place by this evening and hopefully siphoning oil by Friday. After that, they are gonna try the junk shot technique if the dome is successful. Keep our fingers crossed guys, this could be the beginning of the end of the gulf spill.

Saw a video of the leaking pipe this morning... perhaps the flow has reduced but it's still pumping out plenty of oil.

Matty I saw the same thing last night on TV.

After watching 60 minutes last night it looks like BP took a few short cuts which probably lead to the explosion and also the failure of the shut off valve. Here is a link to anyone who missed the show.

lawyers right now as we speak are rushing down to new orleans and other coastal areas expected to be effected by the oil leak. they are setting up law firms. some groups are a collection of the best plaintiff oil attys in the country and world.

man, if i had alil bit of hutzpah i would be making calls to try and get hired as an associate or junior attorney.

the windfall from these class actions are going to be unprecendented.

if only i had drive and determination.

BP is gonna pay a whole heckuva lot green for that black gold coming out.
