There aint nothing but big mosquitos and muskrats at the South Pass
I’ve been there myself a few times fishing for the big ones probably about where that rig was.

I doubt it. The SW pass flows out.

Obama Sends SWAT Teams to Oil RigsHe's taking a big risk. There are still a lot of senior citizen Tea Partiers out there looking to make their move.

There aint nothing but big mosquitos and muskrats at the South Pass.I look forward to seeing video of Sierra Club volunteers wiping oil off of mosquitoes, muskrats and nutria. Are there any water moccasins in that area? lol

But who has the capability of going down 5,000 feet to place a device, or whatever? Who?

"But who has the capability of going down 5,000 feet to place a device, or whatever? Who? As long as the device sinks, you don't necessarily have to go down there with it. A rudimentary depth charge could be made without too much trouble.

Is this Zer0’s Katrina moment?
He knew there was a disaster a week ago, but he's just now mobilizing the Federal Gov’t to help out.
There's no Dumbass Nagin; no Boo-Hoo Blanco; just Zer0 and his flunkies that have sat on their hands, pulling pork, for the past week while the evil oil company was trying to battle with gushing evil oil.
Zer0, this one’s on you!

I still believe that there is a real chance that this was an act of eco-terrorism. I think that’s why the SWAT teams are out. Think about it, imgaine the easy target that this platforms are. The damage that can be done both to our ecology and our economics.

I was too loose with my phrasing. I didn’t mean a person had to go down 5,000 feet. But I think you over-simplify it. Explosive devices with a guidance system are sophisticated devices.
An unidentified vessel would not be able to get very close to the rig without notice.

You’re missing it, obviously the perps were disgruntaled
former veterans probably tea party members, maybe even
listeners of the radical glen beck. The same people that
want to keep little tommy from having health care and
carbon credits...

Google :make your own submersible” you would be surprised the “off the shelf” technology out there and don’t forget many of the countries that hate use send lots of people here to study and engineering is what a good portion of them study.
The SWAT Teams were sent for a reason and I don’t think they are holding “Tea Parties” on oil rigs and I don’t theink the are out there to scrub oil of sea guls!

I agree with all that, but I don’t think it was an eco-terrorist group. I think it’s more sophisticated than that.
Just my gut, though.
