What? He doesn’t carry his own? Oh forgot, that must be one of the Secret Service jobs. Two for the price of one, and saving jobs besides.

And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood
.
And a third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life died; and a
third part of ships were destroyed

After seeing the video of the rust-colored goo washing up on the shores, that passage from Revelations about the “seas turning to blood” immediately came to mind.

Nobody is considering it because it is a ridiculous idea at best.

He was protecting the unions and former Progressive scumbag President Wilson, in fact an environmental disaster is perfect for his agenda...remember the Progressives don’t care about collateral damage just that they get the opportunity to move their agenda and ram through things that Americans will NEVER accept.
America not only needs to clean house in government they need to repeal 100% of everything that has ever been signed by a Progressive in office...good or bad we need to erase Progressivism from our history and our political scene they are traitors to the US Constitution.

Stop Censoring News From The Gulf June 14, 2010 : 1:08 PM These reports are deeply disturbing: When the operators of Southern Seaplane in Belle Chasse, La., called the local Coast Guard-Federal Aviation Administration command center for permission to fly over restricted airspace in Gulf of Mexico, they made what they thought was a simple and routine request. A pilot wanted to take a photographer from The Times-Picayune of New Orleans to snap photographs of the oil slicks blackening the water. The response from a BP contractor who answered the phone late last month at the command center was swift and absolute: Permission denied. This behavior is completely unacceptable. Access by reporters should be as unfettered as possible. This de facto form of censorship needs to stop.http://blog.algore.com/2010/06/stop_censoring_news_from_the_g.html

I heard this mention during the first few days. It would be very controlled and just seal the leak. I wonder if BP doesn’t want it sealed so it can be used in the future? I am not that educated on the subject but a small, controlled nuke sounds like it would do a lot less damage to the environment than all this oil. Plus you wouldn’t have to add so many solvents to the water. I think people hear the word “nuke” and they think about some huge mushroom cloud. It could have been done at night and that would have been that.
To: Telepathic Intruder
I thought the issue was that the seabed was unstable. What if the nuke ruptured the entire seabed and all the oil seeped through like a sieve? What a nightmare...

Watch the entire series. Although the Pastor seems to ramble on a bit about the “Elite” a lot of the other stuff he has to say seems probable.

What is it, an oil volcano?An ocean of oil sitting atop a volcano might be more apropos.

So the question is why was a liner hanger not placed between casings 8 and 9 and who was responsible for this highly unusual failing?At these enormous pressures would it have mattered much? It may have just delayed the inevitable. Piercing that deep well was the mistake. I truly believe no one had any idea about what they would find at those depths, but to SouthDixie's point in post 39 greed was indeed the motivator.

If you have people within 50 miles of the Gulf Coast (or you are yourself) you need to listen carefully about the toxins in the air. Benzine and Hydrogen Sulfide are not to be trifled with.

I worry about poison rain falling all over the Southeast here in the near future. Me too.
