Didn’t Hyundai Heavy Industries build the platform? They’re from South Korea. Who leased the platform? BP (doesn’t that mean British Petroleum)? Was this spill in or out of international waters? I believe it was within our borders, so I say an act of terrorism. Platforms don’t “just” blow up, do they?
I've been around since the early days of the Internet and one thing I've learned is that there is an inverse relationship between the credibility of a "theory" and the number of "links" contained in it. The only thing worse is when the explanation begins with "ask yourself," which this one includes as well.
On Friday, Mark Levin interviewed someone who called in to his show. The guy was on the rig when it blew. Extremely fascinating. If you missed it, you should go and download it.

Hey! FReepers!
Help Fill The Tank!
How About It? Huh?
It Ain't Askin' Too Much
Ya Know....
Mark Levin had one of the survivors on his show. Guy said the gas vapor came back up and overwhelmed the safeties. He didn’t think it was anything except an accident.
The survey is a good indication from surface to bedrock.

Did Ken Saladbar say those words?
And let's not forget the media-manufactured, "Bush's Katrina".
This one's not manufactured -- he can run but he can't hide:
Didnt Hyundai Heavy Industries build the platform? Theyre from South Korea.
Correct. Hyundai built it for Reading Bates for $350 million in 2001. Reading Bates later sold the platform to Transocean who is the current owner.
We’ve been waiting for Obama to try something. I don’t think this is it, though, it took him too long to figure out how to take advantage of it.
The damned thing blew up. That's pretty much 'out of the usual' wouldn't you say
Not really... this stuff happens to rigs from time to time. We have been flying for almost a century and we still have plane crashes.

Friday 04/30/2010 Halliburton and the Gulf Disaster [Greg Pollowitz]
WSJ:
"An oil-drilling procedure called cementing is coming under scrutiny as a possible cause of the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig in the Gulf of Mexico that has led to one of the biggest oil spills in U.S. history, drilling experts said Thursday.
"The process is supposed to prevent oil and natural gas from escaping by filling gaps between the outside of the well pipe and the inside of the hole bored into the ocean floor. Cement, pumped down the well from the drilling rig, is also used to plug wells after they have been abandoned or when drilling has finished but production hasn't begun.
"In the case of the Deepwater Horizon, workers had finished pumping cement to fill the space between the pipe and the sides of the hole and had begun temporarily plugging the well with cement; it isn't known whether they had completed the plugging process before the blast.
"Regulators have previously identified problems in the cementing process as a leading cause of well blowouts, in which oil and natural gas surge out of a well with explosive force. When cement develops cracks or doesn't set properly, oil and gas can escape, ultimately flowing out of control. The gas is highly combustible and prone to ignite, as it appears to have done aboard the Deepwater Horizon, which was leased by BP PLC, the British oil giant.
"Concerns about the cementing processand about whether rigs have enough safeguards to prevent blowoutsraise questions about whether the industry can safely drill in deep water and whether regulators are up to the task of monitoring them.
"The scrutiny on cementing will focus attention on Halliburton Co., the oilfield-services firm that was handling the cementing process on the rig, which burned and sank last week. The disaster, which killed 11, has left a gusher of oil streaming into the Gulf from a mile under the surface.
"Federal officials declined to comment on their investigation, and Halliburton didn't respond to questions from The Wall Street Journal.

It bears to keep in mind that when such calamities occur the first thing courageous citizens must do is to confront the keepers of information, the media handlers, wherever they can be found, in restaurants, taxis, wherever and determine above all else, what frequency the perpetrators are using.
Yea posted back on the 29th I had the same bad feeling

Ok.... How exactly? The government put brain control chips responding to HARP ultra-low frequency emitters in Area 51 in Klebold and Dylon’s heads? Or maybe they used drugs in the water supply to make them brainwashable? Please, inquiring minds want to know
LOL! Fair question. As with Columbine, I have no proof, in fact, I don’t even have any credible evidence.
Meant to add, there only seem to be a string of strange negative coincidences as it relates to major policy changes.
Wait until we are on the cusp of a new nuclear plant.
