Count on me for $100 to your bail fund. No jury (unless gay) would convict you.
Obama plugged the hole!!!!!
After the first 18 that is.....
Never been done at that depth and there was a lot of concern that it would topple the BOP - which it still might do. I hope they anchor the thing before it falls over.
Obama still banned offhore oil drilling in the Gulf. That was our main economic engine here in southern Louisiana. Obama will not allow drilling in the Gulf ever as liberals want to destroy the oil industry/capitalism.
Obama also cut navy contracts so that our only shipyard is closing in New Orlean. So Obama/Stalin and the media have destroyed all the jobs here. We have no jobs.

I’d be checking the seismographs and getting out of Dodge too if it goes bad.. lots of trepidation on the gubamint’s part.. BP may be footing the bill but the gubamint is signing off on their efforts.. I say , if it don’t collapse or blow up in afew weeks,, tap it drain it dry.. and then, run like heck.. to the bank. :-)
Yes exactly .And Marxists/democrats/liberals also banned offshore oil drilling because they know if they destroy oil then they destroy capitalism. Liberals/Marxists tried to destroy oil with decades of fake ,made up research, called global warming. And so they saw this opportunity and ran with it.
Obama banned offshore drilling , stopping the economic engine of this area , southern Louisiana.

I bought options. It was almost inevitable that an announcement like this would come eventually, and the reaction would be predictable. Sometimes the market is just too obvious. I love it when that happens.
Let me get back to you. I got to go drive this electric thingy around and take some pics.
US President Barack Obama (R), seen here trying out an electric Ford Focus in Holland, Michigan, admitted Thursday the progress he had wrought in turning around the economy was not yet sufficient to repair the "enormous damage" of the worst recession in decades. (AFP/Saul Loeb)
From what I have read, government regulations require that any undersea well bore that experienced a blow out, cannot be used for production. It must be permanently sealed. That was from a comment on the Oil Drum. Now they could go for new production wells on the same reservoir, but one can only imagine the red tape the government will now put in front of the process.
