"You want to make sure it's really dead, dead, dead. Don't want anything to rise out of the grave," Energy Secretary Steven Chu told The Washington Post late Tuesday afternoon.

Finally!

But not done just yet,...they will still be out there into September....

Funny thing this morning, I noticed that since they are able to stop the gusher, the price of gas has gone up slowly. Are you used to paying $3 a gallon yet? Not to worry, it will climb about a dollar by Christmas. I feel more like a schmuck everyday.

That extra casing and cement work BP passed on because it was too expensive is looking pretty cheap now, isn’t it BP?

Well, on crisis under control, time for Bozo and the boys to find a new one to try to terrify people with so he can tax the sh** out of us.

Wasn't it nice of them to plug the well on Boama’s supposed birthday? Gas fell below $2.50.

Obama sure is doing a good job in getting the flow stopped, huh? Like uh, sure, right, notice he has not been back down here, not that we miss him, not like he did any good other than spending a lot of money on nothing, he has done nothing.

Perhaps we can get those drilling rigs back from $oro$ and get back to drilling our own oil.

Meanwhile, the Obummer administration says the Gulf drilling moratorium will stay in place until the Gulf oil industry is dead, dead, dead, and all workers are unemployed. Their hope is oil prices will go so high we will all buy Volts from Government Motors.

The new BOP seal they busted out during the Top Kill mud injection is still leaking. See it below live.

New Top Kill Leak

The leak is not slowing and holding steady with a slight increase. Also note that leaking product is rising. Should not drilling mud be falling to the ground ? The BOP is still leaking oil. How is that possible ?
