For the purpose of this section, the term— (1) “oil” means oil of any kind or in any form, including, but not limited to, petroleum, fuel oil, sludge, oil refuse, and oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil...

...it was put in the law for a reason. HUSSEIN, as the Oval Office resident, is REQUIRED TO CLEAN THIS MESS UP.
REQUIRED!
Republicans need to hold HUSSEIN's feet to the fire and quit focusing on this Barton CRAP. Damn right it was a shakedown--something BEYOND the law--
Hell, if it were a VOLUNTARY thing, why put one of Hussein's lapdogs, Feinberg in charge of it?
Why not let the governors of the states affected distribute the money??? Why a FEDERAL asswipe?
I am so pissed that Republicans are eating their own on this when HUSSEIN is the one to blame. ACCORDING TO FEDERAL LAW, IF THAT COUNTS FOR ANYTHING ANYMORE, DAMMIT.

Dude, sweet HTML work there. Now I can read it without my glasses.
Its OK to post, but don’t kook up to 11 next time, please.
Obama has literally committed a crime by not protecting our shorelines and indeed appears to have obstructed protection by not accepting offers of help from knowledgeable and capable entities to remove the oil from the water PRIOR to it being washed ashore. This has to be an impeachable offense!
Seven is the largest F.R. will accept. I've tried. :-)
The pubbies aren’t going to do anything. Some lawyer with big balls is gonna fire the first lawsuit across the bow, then others will follow.
Does it have to be a lawyer?
