Right now somewhere in the rough O is speaking:

“We are going to have to pull off the cap to take a look at the underside of it. We want to make sure the underside of the cap isn’t trapping any microbes that may not be able to survive the intense pressure that putting the cap on may or may not be causing.”

“Don’t worry taking the cap off and inspecting it won’t take long. We just have to ship it to the University of Singapore on a slow barge(wouldn’t want those microbes to get sea sick would we) and the University said their inspection should only take a few months to complete. “

“So looks like we will be able to re-cap it sometime after November.”

“Just to be clear, we are taking every step we can in order to ensure the safety of life in and around the gulf.”

“Thank You.”

“Rahm! Where the hell did my F#cking golf ball go? What? No? Dammit Rahm, Can we get these F##king teleprompters out of the way? I can’t hear what your saying, hold on... What do you mean the mic is still on?”

CNN is apparently showing a shot of one of the hydraulic pressure gauges and claiming it's well pressure. Wait’ll ‘til they announce the test is a failure based on that. Utter morons.

None of the gauges visible on ROV cameras are well pressure.

"...Unfortunately, I wouldn’t believe BP if they told me grass was green...."

If BP did tell you grass was green, it would most likely look like this well-known football field:

This is a new device they built just to fix this leak. It took time to engineer and build.

supposedly, they learned from earlier mistakes till they nailed it. OR if you prefer.......the obama administration finally allowed them to take action without sabotaging them.

I hear ya, if the casings are solid, capture the dang oil then, heck put a nice big head on it and pipe it onshore, folks don’t realize how much stuff is pumped all over the floor of the Gulf.. they should still both relief holes and pump oil out of it too.. more jobs and more oil.. a win win..

but.. Obama has his mission.. regardless the cost..

Back several years ago I actually like Shep. It was during Gulf War One. What has happened to him? He’s sounding like a total idiot charging BP with everything but stealing Christmas.

The former, actually shut in... at least temporarily... to see if it’ll hold pressure.

“So you’ll believe Obama?”

You have problems with logic I see. If I tell you I don’t like potatoes, you’re next question is to ask if I like broken bicycles?

BP has proven to be less than trustworthy. Recognizing inadequacies in BP doesn’t make one an Obamatron.

Shep says a lot of completely mindless crap.

Did you hear him saying that predator and prey animals will be forced to live together and it will upset the natural predator - prey cycle?

Apparently pelicans are going to start eating dolphins.

Are you aware that EACH one of these caps had to be MANUFACTURED FROM SCRATCH, HAULED TO THE SITE AND PRECISELY LOWERED INTO PLACE ON TOP OF A HOLE 22 INCHES IN DIAMETER, A MILE DOWN UNDER THE WATER WITH OIL GUSHING OUT AT 6500 PSI?............and this latest one weighed 157,000 pounds...........
