Frustration Mounts As Oil Seeps Into Gulf Wetlands

Saturday, May 22, 2010


I've read it. I suggest you read it thoroughly, and start using your mind and reasoning skills:



April 20 - [T]the administration has continuously anticipated and planned for a worst-case scenario.



How does that square with this on April 29 & May 1 & May 19:

Once the oil is in the water, the only way to keep it from the wetlands, the coast period, is to surround it with booms and burn it off. Burning oil, while not environmentally friendly, is certainly more ecologically healthy than using Corexit (the only reason for using a dispersant is to hide it, send it beneath the surface so that it can't be seen by the media and the People).



After enough protests, Obama's EPA finally told BP it had 24 hours to find another dispersant, less toxic (Obama wants to hide it, too, apparently) and 72 hours to start using it. BP then told the EPA to "take a hike, we're sticking with Corexit".



In case you didn't know, the White House has had the live feed from day one of this catastrophe and has let BP continue to l!e about the amount of oil spilling into the Gulf.



Those are just 3 on a long list of failures by this administration in this clusterfvck of a disaster.
