Yeah, but did anyone get this info to Barry’s bodyman, golf caddy or personal chef? Was Michelle’s 30+ member posse alerted?
He knew how BIG it was, but probably didn't understand how BAD it was because he's too arrogant to admit that he doesn't understand things like geology, oceanography, and oil well drilling and didn't get anyone in there to brief him. "Only 8,000? That's what Michelle spends on clothes, how bad could it be?"
"Less than 48 hours after the explosion multiple attempts to activate the blowout preventer had already failed and the Coast Guard knew 8,000 barrels of crude oil spilling into Gulf waters each day was a real possibility," Issa added.."Americans have a right to be outraged by this spill, by top government officials caught off-guard, and by the facts the White House omitted in explaining what it knew and when it knew it."

Even worse, FTA: Coast Guard logs from April 22 point to the massive fire: “The majority of the oil continues to be mitigated by the fire … use of ROV to shut-in the well has been unsuccessful after several attempts.”
Why not make sure it just kept coming to the surface and burning off???
PING! He’s got some ‘splainin’ to do.
There were two reports yesterday I was looking for a followup on.
1. The shear was the first piece of equipment made ready and BP wanted that first and the administration did not let them use it until other methods used first.
The burning of the oil floating to get rid of it was stopped by environmentalist they said it would cause too much air pollution.
Anyone have an update on those? Thanks.
That's meaningless, because at the time they did NOT know that the well had completely blow out, nor how damaged the shutoff mechanisms were.
Stick to facts. avoid hysteria, and never panic.
The list, ping
1) never run anything,
2) never fixed anything.
He would not be qualified to be a clerk at a 7-11.
You think 7-11 would hire a “community organizer”?
No frick’n way. They don't want trouble in their stores.
24 hours after the oil rig collapse and the deaths of 11 oil workers-Barry welcomed the US Olympic team to the White House,
Within 48 hrs Biden was on The View and Barry was on Wall Street slamming Wall Street.
Barry also met the Shuttle crew and made Earth Day remarks.
Within 72 hours Barry and Michelle were in Asheville , North Carolina for a vacation.
” President Obama and First Lady Michelle became honorary Ashevillians during a romantic spring getaway in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Their vacation itinerary was filled with Asheville hallmarks: natural adventures, rich history,
scenic beauty, farm fresh cuisine and rejuvenation.”
“On day two of their romantic getaway,
the Obamas made ample use of Grove Park’s rolling Donald Ross-designed golf course and sports complex.
While the President hit the links with some close friends,
the First Lady had a tennis lesson at the Grove Park Inn Sports Complex.
It is also rumored that the President played some basketball before joining his wife at The Spa, a 43,000 square-foot subterranean facility
complete with mineral pools, massaging waterfall pools, sauna,
exhilarating
hot-cold plunge pools and an eucalyptus-infused steam room. “
” The President and First Lady enjoyed corn and crab chowder with fresh cilantro and corn-fried oysters with arugula,
tomatoes and mustard drizzle,
and the presidential sweet tooth was
satisfied with peanut butter banana soufflé with chocolate and white sauce, and forest berry sorbet from Asheville’s Ultimate Ice Cream
(known for slow food ice cream flavors using local ingredients).”
” To wrap up their weekend of relaxation, the Obamas had a delectable Sunday Brunch delivered to their suite at Grove Park Inn.”

Containing the spewing oil and thinking about 11 dead oil workers and their families was obviously not on Barry’s agenda.
The only water he contemplated was at the spa and the only oil he thought about was the fried food in their fancy dinners.
