See link for complete list. The oil has not 'disappeared' like the O Tribe Media,The Coast Guard, Obama and BP are saying. This is a story to help Obama and BP get this story off of the front page and people's minds off of the fact that the so-called 20 billion dollars is not getting out to the people in La. It's the money that has DISAPPEARED...not the oil!

PING! I don’t know what is up..but somebody is lying and my guess is that it’s the government,BP and the O Tribe Media. Anderson Cooper had on Billy Nuenhauser last night and he said the money has dried up, no-one is getting paid, BP is sneaking out equipment in the middle of the night with the coast guard’s help and oil is still floating all over the gulf.

Nobody is getting paid and BP is sneaking out because the democrat party has finally skimmed the last of the money from the fund.

Sightings of oil? Sounds like sightings of Elvis.

The point you are missing is that the folks saying “no oil found” are talking about NEW oil appearing around the wellhead site. The spots listed in the link are “old news” areas of oil already catalogued. If they’re in Bourne and Ponchartrain, they probably left the wellhead a month ago.

Go read the list..It’s long. There is oil out in the Gulf and in the marshes...yet suddenly we are supposed to trust the O Tribe Media saying it’s gone and they can’t find it? Something is not right folks.

That is not the way the ABC article reads. It reads like they can’t find oil in the gulf or marshes. Go read it:

Not sure, but my guess is yes because these media folks claiming no oil can be found are being escorted around by Obama and BP’s new PR spokesmen..the Coast Guard.

Nothing makes sense anymore. I hate though that folks on our side are latching onto this report by ABC as some kind of proof that they have been right all along(like Rush And Levin did yesterday). Since when do we believe anything the O Tribe Media says? I am sure the oil is being broken up by mother nature and has been all along, but give me a break..it’s still out there and Obama’s response is still incompetent and inadequate. The only thing truly ‘disappearing’ is the money,the clean -up crews,the boons and the boats.

Thanks for the link. It’s still in place because they are lying to the American people. Obama, the democrats and BP are thick as thieves.

I read it. Your interpretation of what it says is simply wrong.

The ABC article specifically says two things that lead me to believe that it is you that are misinterpreting here. They are not only referring to the oil coming from the wellhead and around the spill site. They say they can’t find any oil..period. Examples:

“Today, ABC News surveyed a marsh area and found none, and even on a flight out to the rig site Sunday with the Coast Guard, there was no oil to be seen.”

“Experts stress that even though there’s less and less oil as time goes on, there’s still plenty around the spill site.”

And from the TP article I posted, it clearly states that these oil logs were done Sunday and Monday.
Quote:

“Here is a list, released by Louisiana emergency officials, of areas where oil was sighted Sunday and Monday. The list is not a comprehensive tally of areas affected by the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.”

It doesn’t say they are ‘old logs’. It says they were done Sunday and Monday. Of course the oil left the well head weeks ago. The bottom line is there is oil to be found in the gulf and in the marshes and on the islands. ABC is being duplicitous in their headline and their reporting. The locals say there is oil all over the place and they are not getting paid. I trust Bobby Jindal more than I do the media, Obama and BP.

Let me put it this way...you actually expect ACCURACY from the news media??

From my days as high school record keeper calling in game scores to the local paper to pretty much anything that I could be considered a "qualied expert" today, there is one constant. The media ALWAYS "gets it wrong" in one or more important details. This has been one hundred percent of the time....not even a single exception.

Which is why "I" get my information from reading the reports of the daily briefing sessions from Admiral Thad Allen (they're posted on the web). And Admiral Allen is perfectly clear that the lack of oil found refers specifically to the area around the leaking wellhead, and NOT to already categorized old spill(s)

We agree on the media. I guess where we are at odds is trust in the government. I don’t trust the government anymore and that includes Thad Allen. The locals say that the Coast Guard has become nothing more than a spokesman for Obama and BP. Thad Allen is taking his orders from Obama and that is the bottom line. It’s really scary to realize that we can’t trust the government,the media,academia,scientists and even some of our preachers because the putrid lies of marxism have so infiltrated our entire society. It is a sad state of affairs.

FRegards.
