As I was half awake (said earlier) that I did note he used his words recklessly on "being the biggest oil spill disaster"..then I jump to Shep's 4 Olympic size swimming pools scenario. Obama lying through his teeth about bringing together the best team to clean up..bs. [Now I remember wasn't a dream was a nightmare- this whole Presidency has been too much drama..drama..threats..then God Blesses]

I think he was referring to the blessing of the fleet
enemas, cause we all are constipated by his sluggardly
administration and he knows it’s the only thing that
will work.

I hope you're right - why do you think so?

I didn't watch him myself because I can't stand to.

Thank you for posting.

I was up to post #173 when I was into my 3rd beer. Don’t think I’d have lasted to the +672 post thread at this point.

Fusion - mentioned zero times.

Nuclear - mentioned zero times.

“I” mentioned 22 times.

Pres_ _ent Obama has destroyed all present energy production
systems; and even future energy systems such as cold fusion.
Obama’s operatives work in the US patent office throwing
out all useful patent applications.

Tomorrow, I will meet with the chairman of BP and inform him that he is to set aside whatever resources are required to compensate the workers and business owners who have been harmed as a result of his company’s recklessness.”

OK, bho mofo, what gives you the authority to do this?

THIS IS NOT A FREAKING MONARCHY, YOU LEFTIST TURD!

Nuclear not mentioned at all? In the camps we will all be freezing our asses (yes I can use that word) off. Even our resident greenies here realize we are dead without nuclear if we get rid of fossil. Where is that idiot cogitator anyway? I hope he is happy.

The oil spill is not the last crisis America will face. This nation has known hard times before and we will surely know them again. What sees us through — what has always seen us through — is our strength, our resilience, and our unyielding faith that something better awaits us if we summon the courage to reach for it. Tonight, we pray for that courage. We pray for the people of the Gulf. And we pray that a hand may guide us through the storm towards a brighter day. Thank you, God Bless You, and may God Bless the United States of America.

WOW. Threats, faith healing and unicorns. "Touchdown Jesus", personified!

Your first thoughts are right on.

Since the Bureau of Mining and whatever missed 16 inspections and granted, I forget was it 14, wavers...

How can Obummer, the Marxist now posing as a Fascist, escape the fact that the US government was equally to blame?

If BP is to pay for everything that happens for the next 10 years in the many states bordering the Gulf, how can the US government escape equal liability?

If this were to be a lawsuit between two corporations, the first thing the lawyers for BP would claim is that the corporation named US Government was guilty of contributory negligence, which is an adequate defense in many states.

So in the real world, Obummer, the Marxist now posing as a Fascist, is a fool.

BP should fix the well. BP should pay damages.

But the US government in the form of Obummer, the Marxist now posing as a Fascist, should look upon the oil flowing towards US shores with the same vigor as it would an invasion. The US government should get every ship and every crew experienced in this kind of emergency in action in the Gulf.

If BP should pay for some of that, fine. Send them a bill AFTER the oil is prevented from hitting the shore.

Obummer, the Marxist now posing as a Fascist, demonstrates at this point that he is a great politician but an abysmally poor manager.

"So one of the lessons we've learned from this spill is that we need better regulations,..."

Noooo,....what we NEED is to ENFORCE the regulations we already have.

"And that's part of the reason oil companies are drilling a mile beneath the surface of the ocean — because we're running out of places to drill on land and in shallow water."

What an absolutely, oh, what's the word, blatant lie!!! I can't believe he has the audacity to say that! Or, maybe I can believe it. Can't wait for the response from Sarah!

Couldn’t watch more than a few minutes. What makes you say this? I hope you’re right.
