Of course it is Bush’s fault that this ACCIDENT happened.

Bye, bye off shore drilling!

Sky high gas prices are on the way - just in time for summer.

I agree. Where is the original rationale for the use of the dispersants? Where’s the current rationale for the use of the dispersants?

The oil got emulsified leaving the pipe so that is part of it to. The entire thing is pretty sad either way.

“Bye, bye off shore drilling!”

Not quite.

It’s “Bye, bye off shore drilling for the USA!”

The Chinese, Brazilians, Venezuelans and others will be happy to continue offshore drlling without our competitive presence. Just ask Soros.

I am glad you posted this thread again, someone else did this morning and it quickly turned an attack the messenger thread with the messenger being the AP guy.

I figured if I posted on that thread they would be all over me.

Follow the money.

If memory serves these products are banned in other countries.

But then again the US is still the country that wants you to have almost FORTY vaccines with no regard for long term affects....no other country is that stupid.

Yes, you are RIGHT!

We will also LEASE our offshore drilling areas to Venezuela and Mexico and who ever wants to LEASE them from us. After all, we WANT TO BE OBLIGATED TO OUR ENEMIES!

The dispersants, which are far more poisonous than oil, are made by NALCO, a Chicago corporation that may have connections to Rahm, BP, and Obama. So far, no one has fished out the details, but there was some discussion on an earlier thread, which questioned why the government has completely ignored a Maine company that has been producing oil containment booms.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2530565/posts?page=50#50

I did find that there’s at least one guy who sits on the boards of both NALCO and BP. And there seem to be a bunch of very suspicious big owners of NALCO stock. The usual suspects.

This needs to be investigated further, IMHO. Sure as hell the MSM won’t touch it with a ten foot pole.

This video is extremely sad and compelling.

The divers are taking a big gamble exposing themselves to the chemicals and hydrocarbons. This whole mess just makes me sick.

Words cannot express how I feel about this tragedy and the events that have occurred since the blowout.

Prayers for the Gulf Coast and the families of the 11 men who lost their lives on the rig.

I believe dispersants were designed for much smaller spills, nothing at for these sort of scales.

Ping. Not sure if this is up your alley, but I think NALCO would bear some investigating, possibly by someone on your ping list.

The more disperse the oil, the faster nature can break it down.

What happens to oil in water
