Last night on CNN, AC spoke with Nungesser again and boy did Billy rip Obama and his admin a new one. It was a thing of beauty. I couldn't find a link, but if someone does, please post the link - everyone needs to see it.
He even connected the incompetence in the Gulf to the war in Afghanistan - saying basically that the thoughts McC has for Obama are probably running through the entire military, just as the same feelings are running through the entire gulf.
The guy is fed-up. And unless Obama can blacklist him from CNN - this is gonna get ugly.
Pass the popcorn.
Thanks! I have sent an email to Mr. Nungesser to express my appreciation for his speaking out.
This is the VERY first I’ve heard of ANYONE saying, “Ya know, it looks like the MILITARY DOESN’T THINK THE WHITE HOUSE CARES ABOUT THEIR VICTORY.”
Because you damn well know if this were President Bush, THAT WOULD BE THE STORY.
AND MY PERSONAL FAVORITE
COOPER: Billy, there was a meeting late today with the Interior Department where they were going to review this. Any word on what happened there?
NUNGESSER: Yes, they denied it. Yes, we have got to wait the nine or 10 days to build this pipeline.
And the lady — that same lady that stood up in the meeting in New Orleans that the — that eventually approved the permit, and she kept giving us every reason why we can’t do this, is the one that shut us down, that Jane Lyder.
And to give you the kind of person we’re dealing with, she sent an e-mail out today that said, could we possibly move volunteers to shorten that time frame?
Obviously, this lady has never — doesn’t know what a dredge is, doesn’t know what a barrier island is. It’s a 36-inch steel pipe, lady. You don’t move it with volunteers.
And the pelicans she’s worried about — Anderson, you saw that small grass area behind us. This berm by Friday would have protected that small, one of the last breeding grounds out there left.
But this — with this project being shut down, if that oil comes to the Chandeleurs by Friday, like projected, those pelicans, those breeding grounds will be destroyed because she single-handedly stopped this project.
And I want to put her on notice...
COOPER: What...
NUNGESSER: ... that I will send her those pictures personally, because she will personally be responsible for killing hundreds of pelicans.
SNIP
It’s about time he and Jindal and the people on the Gulf woke up. They need to rise up and march on Washington — and bring some of that oil with them to paint the town.
Thanks, Kristinn! I can’t hear well enough without captions. I appreciate you posting the transcript.
bump for later
Thanks for posting!!! Wow. This guy was trying to be nice about it too. He just got sick of being lied to (who isn’t). The most amusing thing to me was the silence of Cooper and the inability to defend Obama. He barely even tried but when he did try he was quickly corrected. What IS evident through all this mess is that the President cares most about himself above all else.
Thanks for the post. Anyone following the oil spill knows who Mr. Nungesser is.
I hate to ask this but were either of the Marines black? According to a guy on Lou Dobbs yesterday who was from Gallup, black support is still over 90%.

That he has no clue how to govern or lead, how to speak on the cuff because he does not have a strong core of beliefs other than equalizing everything (except what HE owns, of course) for the good of all. Sad.
What I am just SO SORRY about is the fact that our first black president of the United States is such a creepy, inept joke.
I am sorry for all of us, and especially sorry for our military and the few good politicians left who understand and fight for our contstitution, our democratic republic.
And I am SORRY that all the little black children in our nation are going to have to watch the failure that is our first black president go down.
And uhbama will go down, he is a clueless egotist.

“And no one spoke an encouraging word about the Commander in-chief.”
I got several friends who are still active duty and active reservists. Unfortunately, there were many military personnel who were suckered by The Won (just like Clinton suckered many during his first run)!
However, The Won has quickly lost the majority of the military. I had two active duty friends who were supporters of Obamao, but they quickly lost faith when he suggested that Veterans should have to pay for their own combat injuries through personal health insurance!
I do not personally know a single active duty/active reservist who supports The Won! They are ready for him to be GONE!
Its about time he and Jindal and the people on the Gulf woke up. They need to rise up and march on Washington and bring some of that oil with them to paint the town.Imagine a march on Washington with tens of thousands of people, all bringing a small container of oil, and then each dumping that oil on the white house grounds. The stain from the oil would be impossible for the media to ignore, and would send a very strong message.
Could we see a situation where we have a Military completely united against it’s own CiC?
It's time the States reassess their creation.
Thanks for posting the good quality version.
