THEN we can figger out whose fault it was...Personally, I'd like to see Hoosain Jug Head, the heads of BP, Halliburton, Chimpy McHalliburton Bushitler, the "Owner" of the rig, the head of the agency that signed off on this fiasco, ANYBODY who had anything to do w/this shyte dancin' on the end of a rope...

Well, this has turned out was worse than first reported. But I can't tell if everyone's playing politics or it's just the media that's doing so.
I would imagine that BP's doing all that they can, for no other reason than they're the one on the hook. But I agree, let's get it fixed...plenty of time to play the blame game later.
Wait a minute...there's an election in less than six months...time's of the essence!!!

I agree to some extent. This is a huge diasaster.

Wait a minute folks, it was simply an accident and no one's fault - we have Rand Paul's word for it. It was a simple accident just like the mine disaster in West Virginia.

I'm waiting for Pat Robertson to say that it's God's retribution for New Orleans having so many gays and being the birthplace of the devil's music.

Who's the ass from our current Admin that said 'we're keeping a boot on BPs neck'? That's facist talk.
I agree it's a huge disaster and perhaps worse than we think. So WHY ISN'T THE FREAKIN NAVY OUT THERE?
All our master says is that it's BPs responsibility.

Unfortunately, the oil companies are the only ones with the technology to do deep ocean drilling (however limited it may be). Apparently, the best well blowout specialists in the world are on the scene. However, none of them has experience working in water a mile deep. The Navy would be nothing more than a show of force, not technological know-how.

You'd be surprised what the Navy is capable of in deep water.

I heard this morning that BP has allocated, hundreds of millions of dollars, to research what the effects are going to be on the environment in the future.
BP needs to use that money here and now, to stop the spread of the devastation. The economy is bad enough, now alot of people can't work.
I heard one fishermen on the radio today ask a BP representative, "How are you going to give me back my heritage, I may never be able to support my family again in my lifetime."
