I have a question.

If the JONES ACT is what is prohibiting FOREIGN SHIPS from OFFERING FREE SKIMMING (which makes the whole thing a lie because American UNION employees would not be getting PAID at all, therefore the JONES ACT doesn’t even apply), how is it that BP, which is a FOREIGN company is working in the GULF, operating SHIPS, and as of this moment, is in complete control of the area and the coastal regions?

Did someone in the administration give them another waiver?

No mention of the Jones Act on any Sunday shows I watched. We should be shouting it from the rooftops!!

I tuned in to This Week after Chrissy Wallace show, This week had a fair and balanced panel with 5 and 1 half Democrats to the shorts of George Will.

Could not quite make out the Meat the press panel,for the brief moment I watched, probably closer to 6 dems and 0 Republicans. Fairly fair and balanced considering we live in roughly a 50/50 country....roll eyes
