    i still can not believe this gushing oil well is not capped off yet.
    also, i just heard on the radio, that if the mud packing and filling the pipe with concrete does not work, that is when they plan on calling in other oil companies for help/advice.

    hello assholes!

    why hasn't every oil company on the face of the planet been asked to help cap this thing and why haven't other oil companies stepped up to help without being asked to do so?

    unbelievable...

    who is running this god damn country?
    who is running the world?
    us common people are getting shit on by big business.

    i got news for ya...
    i am sick of it.

    again... if you voted for gw bush & dick cheney chances are i do not like you as a person :mrgreen:

    where are the folks from the middle eastern countries?
    isn't the middle east all over oil?
    where the hell is NASA?
    the U.S. Navy should get off their fat asses and start pulling some oil barriers around.
    Doesn't the Navy have like, um.... something called ships & submarines? (brain wave)
    i'm no giant brain dude... but um,,,,, BP needs their balls cut...

    i say revoke their business license. if one of us caused car accidents killing a dozen or so people every few years we'd have our drivers licenses taken away.

    if this rig was in norway they would be required to have an acoustical trigger, which costs $500,000 which may have stopped the leak before it started....it's estimated BP makes that much in 8 minutes....it's so shameful what is happening. :(

    We can’t swim with the sea anymore.
    Tell me why aquatic life can’t breathe, can’t fly, and are polluted floating death schools?
    Why?
    Sea turtles, why are they less than your agenda which is an evil power fueled by what seems to be endless stacks of massed fortune?
    Contamination!
    Tainted… undesirables are your ways.

    Where will the whales live?
    Their turquoise home has become similar to oil pans on cars, something like a liquid junkyard that gurgles toxic darkened syrupy fluids that cancel out a whales eyes turning them to X’s.

    Shrimp, crustaceans, sea urchins, sea otters, and dolphins all a blown piston, a shot motor, spewing out the remains of throttled seahorses as if mankind were jockey-death-dealers.

    how can they get the oil pipe to all of a sudden suck?
    flow in reverse
    some kind of suction
    suck water for awhile
    bad idea?

    so are ppl "supposed" to believe that it's better to throw up our hands and give up on rescuing the oiled birds because not every bird will survive after the clean-up? is calling bird rescue attempts a big joke an excuse for ppl to believe that it's all hopeless and do nothing? or is it more to do with some think that all the sealife should be euthanised because it's cheaper than rescuing and cleaning them?

    as long ppl keep their expectations resonable... isn't it better to try to save as many of the oil affected sealife as is possible?

    some may need to check their facts. because these facts do make sense:

    http://www.ibrrc.org/gulf-oil-spill-fre ... -2010.html


    no but that's not the only thing that can be done, people need to stop shoving off all the burden on politicians most people think are corrupt and aren't doing their jobs. they need to start seeing past partisan politics and stop giving passes to their side and start demanding more. instead we have 1 side saying it's wrong and the other saying their guy knows what he's doing and just give it time and that just flip flops back and forth while no real positive ground is being made but instead more and more being given away.

    the 'liberals' complained about bush's deregulations and other shenanigans while 'conservatives' swore he knew what he was doing, 'it just takes time'. now 'conservatives' are complaining about things obama is doing (and a lot of made up stuff he isn't) while the 'liberals' give him a free pass and say 'it just takes time'.

    people become so polarized and so blindly loyal to their team they shut out all criticism and write it off as some whacko talk or sour grapes

    and what is happening in the meantime while we wait for obama to start having a pair of balls and not just giving pretty speeches and singing bills?
    Since the Deepwater Horizon oil drilling rig exploded on April 20, the Obama administration has granted oil and gas companies at least 27 exemptions from doing in-depth environmental studies of oil exploration and production in the Gulf of Mexico.

    The waivers were granted despite President Barack Obama’s vow that his administration would launch a “relentless response effort” to stop the leak and prevent more damage to the gulf. One of them was dated Friday — the day after Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said he was temporarily halting offshore drilling

    i'm not saying don't do anything, don't try to save the birds, i'm saying scrubbing a few birds clean isn't enough. accountability is what is needed, we don't have time to keep waiting around hoping they stick to their word when they know most of their base will be happy with the few bones they throw them and not worry that the majority of their promises were just empty talk


    and anyway what facts would those be that i need to check?

    your site only mentions oil, it has NOTHING about the chemical dispersants BP has been using which break down the oil into small droplets encased in this oily, sticky film which drops down below the surface so you can't see it as easily but can still be absorbed INTO fish, amphibians, birds....sorry but some dove aint gonna scrub that gunk out of their insides

    and i never said it was a joke, i said that isn't going to really solve the problem nor should you just kill them rather than try to save them; i said a lot still die after being cleaned (because of exposure to the oil and other chemicals.)

    people get bad headaches just being near this spill, imagine not only having it all over your body but absorbed into you or passing through your gills or mouth

    what's going to happen when fish with this crap end up on our dinner tables? or when these droplets get carried away by the currents and spread to other parts of the world or into hurricanes and rain? but then we already eat fish that ate a lot of plastic and trash and don't seem to mind very much or fish farm raised in china which have pretty low standards and i think the most toxic waterways in the world

    To help with the global catastrophe that is the Gulf of Mexico's oil cataclysm, the Indianapolis 500 will be burning fuel at a high rate as racecar drivers maneuver themselves around in a high speed circular fashion with the goal of being faster than their fellow rivals. Nice work America. Oddly enough, I just realized the race took place yesterday and that some Scotsman took the checkered flag. Shows what I know.

    looks like dunkman has won the 2010 indy 500.
    nice work you fuel burning little fucker.

    i saw an amazing video earlier and now i can't find it.
    this one is along the same lines.
    deep sea drilling off the coast of alaska.
    how fuckin stupid.
    spring a gusher, ice, horrible weather.
    conditions are fucked.
    in the other video it said they could only drill for oil 2 months out of the year.
    you can't get to the fucker.
    so let's drill... assholes are so greedy, so powerful they will do anything that suites their needs.

    not to mention most of the pipes on the alaska pipeline are 40 years old and corroding and already have had leaks, just a week or 2 ago there was a spill at the pipeline with something like 100 million barrels

    and look at all the disasters in nigeria from shell, they even have people murdered there, a leader of a village that was being destroyed by all the spills and drilling and a few other were lynched to make a point: shut the fuck up

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/ma ... elta-shell
    Nigeria's agony dwarfs the Gulf oil spill. The US and Europe ignore it
    The Deepwater Horizon disaster caused headlines around the world, yet the people who live in the Niger delta have had to live with environmental catastrophes for decades
