Why Do Obama, BP Refuse to Use the Most Effective Method of Oil Cleanup?

It wasn't even the biggest hurricane to hit the U.S. in the past 10 years.

Bubba, you're just plain-assed wrong. There ain't never been a hurricane like it and I've been through plenty.

[Clemenza]

I think of the poor folks in Gulfport. First Katrina, now this. Biloxi will get hit harder as it is more dependent on tourism, however.

Bush could’ve stopped the hurricane — Obama would have! So there.

LMFAO!!!

[gulfcoast6]

You mean, you mean dropped the bombs during the hurricane, winds blowing 100MPH plus. WOW!, ‘golly’

THANK you. I am getting pretty fed up with this Bush imcompetent on Katrina.

That is just ignorant speak. What was BLANKO doing, what was NAGEN doing? Of course they never want for us to remember those two imcompetents who were closest to the source of the problem.

That's like saying my baby drowned because the grandparents who live in another state were not there to save it, but I was. Now who is the incompetent one? GRRRRRRR. a pox on them all.

[houeto]

A lot of people who’ve never taken a dime of government money in their lives lost their homes and lives in that storm across the region.

After we finally got cell phones back I got a call from FEMA at 5 a.m. on a Saturday morning. They were upset because I had refused to take the $2000 handout.

The man on the phone said that if I didn't take it I would never be offered assistance again. I said, "Good." and hung up. Got a letter two weeks later verifying the conversation.

True story.

Yes. Gulfport and Biloxi, Mississippi, Alabama & FLorida, along with Louisiana.....

conservative South, and, therefore to be destroyed due to any reason at all, per 0bama’s handlers, the DNC, Congress and the communist/’liberal’ progressives. May they all rot in hell for this negligence and avoidance of their lawful duties.

Under our Constitution, the President’s only recourse would have been equivalent to declaring Marshal Law.

Declaring WHAT???

[Larousse2]

Bombshell expose'. The real reason the oil still flows into the Gulf of Mexico

[houeto]

You are an idiot.

Yep, that comment was so f'n goofy that I decided not to say anything.

[annieokie]

Then they finally got that Military man famous for the "STUCK ON STUPID" remark. It took him to finally knock some sense into those two incompetents BLANCO and NAGIN, who were Stuck on Stupid.

BTW: Was it Bush who sent that man down there to knock heads around?

[Clemenza]

Sickens me. You will rarely meet nicer folks than those in coastal MS. Hope you guys pull though this.

[annieokie]

That’s great, but they will never understand.

[The Comedian]

declaring Marshal Law.

Declaring WHAT???

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[houeto]

Me, just a one each old man (74) weatching a wonderful coast(s) go to hell in a hand basket.

Where do you live 'old man'. I'd love to meet somewhere to buy you a beer.

I get so mad thinking about that mess. New Orleans was the greatest example of what a welfare state will do to people. They were so dependent upon the government that they went completely primal when the government shut down.

Prepare to see it on a national scale. I have.

[thackney]

suck it up like a VLCC

A carrier isn't a vacuum? Maybe I miss your point.

Keep in mind, unlike the Kuwait mess where there was a heavy layer of oil on the small area of water, in the Gulf of Mexico, most of it is a couple molecules thick spread out forever.

[thackney]

have not heard one word about them skimming

The skimmers were sent out starting back on April 21.

BP has mobilized a flotilla of vessels and resources that includes:
- significant mechanical recovery capacity;
- 32 spill response vessels including a large storage barge;
- skimming capacity of more than 171,000 barrels per day, with more available if needed;
