Oil gushing at spill site after vent damaged
NBCNews ^ | 6/23/10

Posted on 06/23/2010 9:29:13 AM PDT by Kartographer

Oil was again gushing uncontrollably from the BP spill site on Wednesday after the company was forced to remove the containment cap when a robotic submarine hit a vent. The news came as officials also reported two deaths in the response effort.

BP hoped to reinstall the cap later Wednesday after fixing the vent and checking for safety.

Earlier Wednesday, BP said that Bob Dudley was appointed to head the new Gulf Coast Restoration Organization, which is in charge of cleaning up the oil spill.

I think Obama might be regretting his remarks mocking God...

..an oilcano!

These deep monsters need to be left alone to do the job God designed them for, to feed the shallow wells.

And on top of this the US Game and Wildlife department wants Louisiana to stop building sand berms to block the oil from reaching shore. We need to plug the @#$% holes with federal beaureaucrats and BP executives till the gusher stops.

“The deaths reported Wednesday were not tied to the containment operation. The Coast Guard said the workers had been involved in cleanup operations did that their deaths did not appear to be work related.

One death was a boat captain who died of a gunshot wound, a Coast Guard spokesman sai.d Further details were not immediately available.”

A GUNSHOT WOUND? WTH?

So, Obama, how about them Dutch skimmers now?

Oh, sorry, yeah, loyalty to the leftist unions is above all, I know.

My reaction, too! Was it Carribean pirates? Or maybe Coast Guard shooting someone for intruding into the forbidden area? I don’t think we’re going to get the truth anytime soon, because Obama has clearly ordered the Coast Guard to keep a tight lid on and keep everyone out, including foreign vessels trying to help out or even state barges trying to help out.

We need to get it back to gushing controllably.

This whole damned operation is about “message control” and not at all about controlling the effect of the gusher. They don’t give a crap about what really happens...only about how it is portrayed publicly.

OK - So a robotic sub hit a vent on the cap, forcing them to pull it up and now it spews uncontrolled.

And a boat captain shot dead, unrelated incident.

What else can go wrong ? (Don’t ask) .

Something very evil is going on in this government. I am beginning to truly believe this whole ‘blow out’ was orchestrated by very evil and powerful people in and around this administration. Now we have a possible murder of a boat captain being reported as if it was nothing!

It’s like we are living in the old soviet union!
