AP news break via ABC News Radio that the top kill plug has failed and has not worked. Link to follow...
Oh yeah. They absolutely did.
It just pisses me off that liberals selectively give passes to only those blacks who are in lock step with their death cult. A black man like Clarence Thomas or myself is treated like the spawn of Satan.
No it’s not...it’s an accident brought on by men not paying attention to safety protections which were in place but not functioning properly.
When Judgement comes there will be no doubt whatsoever as the whole planet and heavens will shake....this is nothing at all by comparrison to what will come.
Least we forget it has been reported Saudi had a far worse spill than this of 700 million gals. Don’t underestimate how God designed our planet and waters to cleanse itself...sure it will take time and sure we will have to help....but in the end it is fixable.
When judgement comes...doomsday says it well.
But your not and you know it and those that matter know it....I like clarence Thomas too...great man! And it is not unusual great men stand away from the crowd until it is there time. When that comes each man knows it...most do not expect to be popular...rather they do expecct to make a difference.
It's sometimes tough being a member of a super minority. There aren't more than two million conservative blacks in the country.
That being said, I think that Obama will ultimately be responsible for a large increase in that number, due to the devastation he's wreaking on the country.
The Tea Party is also playing a large role in waking up black Americans to the vile tricks that have been played on them by the left.
The Saudis sucked up 85% of the oil [695M gals.] using super tankers and pumps. So they only had to deal with 105M gals. If BP had done the same, they would only be dealing with something like 10M gals.
Because the super tanker pump solution makes sense and ACTUALLY works ???
Yes....it has always saddened me how so many blacks have difficulty understanding how they are used for political reasons. I highly respect blacks who can and do stand up for what is right especially when they are judged harshly by their own peers.
It is so wrong to keep blacks in the poverty mode...and even they themselves get their pants in a knot if one stands out and moves ahead of the bunch. I have black friends and Mexican friends who shared that when you start doing something with your life and it looks possible you are stepping ahead for yourself that friends and acquaintances often try to pull you back down....”friend of whitey” and such....it needs to occur to them that perhaps Ol’ whitey happens to see something quite remarkable in that individual and that is why he is being promoted or moved forward....on his own merit and the wisdom of somewone who sees that in them. That’s just good business.
Yes and what a kicker it should be to BP and the rest...though I do think they are trying to fix it....unfortunately BO has the gov. involved and we know how that goes.
I recall being in charge of a well seasoned group of people once....an event occured with a fifteen minute deadline. What do you do? You know the people are well trained, so I cut them loose and said each do what you know well to do and the rest pick up the slack. Everything was there to work with and off they went. Risky yes but there was no time for arguements or debates...it was a beautiful sight as each person knew the whole ordeal rested on their abilities and doing them. The teammanship was astounding..at the end of fifteen minutes the problem was fully in hand and all was operational on scheduale... just as the dignitaries entered the building. Never suspecting the pace and hype of that buiding just fifteen minutes earlier. More than proud of those people they were the picture of excellance in my eyes.
It's downright diabolical.
Today's crop of lefties don't realize it, but they're forwarding and maintaining an enslavement of a people that was begun by their ideological forebears during the Reconstruction period.
Poverty, ignorance, and misery isn't the natural condition for any American sub-group, but liberals never take the time to stop and trace back from effect to cause in this area. If they ever bothered to actually do that, they'd be shocked at what they found.
One thing that prevents the rank and file useful idiots from figuring this out is the mantle of black propaganda that has been successfully placed upon the shoulders of the right. Liberals are indoctrinated that the right is to blame for the awful circumstances and conditions which exist in minority communities, and that it's the left who are sticking up for them, and fighting the "evil right-wing" to win them "social justice".
As long as liberals are too lazy to use their own analyzers to sort down to the truth, they'll keep forwarding and maintaining the very thing they think they're fighting against.
Can somebody tell me if they can put this drain thing on the BOP why can’t they clamp another BOP on top of the BOP and then BOP the leak.
Yea - just wonder for a moment what could happen if the dome over the oil deposit were somehow fractured and oil/gas started escaping from a path other than one we humans drilled into it? I’m not saying that’s a definite or even probable outcome - but we’d want to be *damn* sure that it wasn’t even a 10% outcome possibility. So I’d reckon that there would be a whole lot of very bright geologists and mining engineers who would be brought into a room with one of those old signs that IBM used to have in their engineering buildings in the 70’s and 80’s that said:
“Think.”
And then The One and his minions would start bugging them every 10 minutes for an answer. What a barrel of laughs that job would be.
From having had plenty of interaction with mining geologists prospecting hither and yon in Nevada, all I can say about them is this: They’re often people who hedge their bets and won’t give you an absolute yes/no answer - and with good reason. One guy described his situation as “driving in the dark looking at the road through foot-long drinking straws.”
When I thought about that for a bit, it is an apt description of what he was doing - trying to lay out for people the prospects of a multi-billion dollar investment for a mining company based on core samples pulled up from 4” diameter drilling, spaced about 200 meters apart along a transect.
Yes, it was the Ixtoc I platform, in only about 200ft of water. 1979 to 1980 - it took about 10 months to get it under control.
“A black man like Clarence Thomas or myself is treated like the spawn of Satan.”
Not spawn. Satan himself. The irony in the absolute racist attitude: ‘You’re black, Hispanic, anything but vanilla— you CAN’T be a conservative’ is stunning.
“The silver lining is we don’t have to suffer through those stupid BP “alternative fuels” commercials.”
Is that really true? It’s possible that the worse they screw up, the more they’ll bombard us with something green in the future.
No Duh...
What would Ike do?
Nuke It, Baby, Nuke It.

Corrrect! If they'd only check History for themselves instead of swallowing the liberals koo-aid. I did because I wanted to know the truth for myself. I was stunned many times as the truth surfaced pretty darn quickly....it's out there but it will never be presented from the Liberals at all..ever. They don't want the black population to be successful unless except for those they can control....it is beyond belief how they have deceived and used the black population....So you stay strong and fight the good fight...others will come once they have the facts and courage....they will see and they will rise again.

Obama’s response,”Not yet baby dear. As long as I can still blame Bush I can preserve my status as the world's hero and besides, I have a round of golf and some ice cream awaiting my arrival”.
I surprise people on both sides of the divide when they realize where I stand politically. However, conservatives tend to be quietly delighted, while liberals are vocally horrified. Black liberals are absolutely dumbstruck when they find that I'm a conservative who votes Republican.
My own brother has told me to my face that I'm a "traitor" to my race. I once criticized Obama in an email to him, and he replied that it was "racist". I laughed out loud.
lolol. How are those "hearing aids" working out for you, Bill?
