As a layman outside the industry, I don’t disagree with your description of what the climate is on rigs. I have no basis to, and your comments don’t particularly run against my perception anyway. I think you make a lot of sense trying to urge folks to be careful about making comments about terrorism.

You’re still going to have to understand that it was very against the grain for Obama to say he was going to relax drilling in the GOM, and then within a short period of time we had the worse oil spill in the GOM on record.

Obama has made it perfectly clear he wishes to capitalize on the current “fear” climate, and this all looks very convenient for him.

A leftist says I’m going to relax drilling. Then the worst oil spill on record takes place, and he’s pleased as punch to take advantage of it. He tries to put a moratorium on drilling because it’s just too deep down there, then extends $2 billion in loan guarantees to PetroBras for drilling in waters three times as deep.

This is bound to cause some folks to scratch their heads.

Just to pick at nits, I’m not convinced that Macondo was worse than Ixtoc 1.

Sounds like a reasonable thought process to me.

“Then the worst oil spill on record takes place,”

When you made the above statement , You sounded like an environmentalist. If if sounds like one then it is one

Why was this BP oil spill so bad? there is no oil on the Gulf coast beaches.beaches , the Ocean , the Gulf , everything is as it was before this BP “oil spill”. The liberals say that it takes 50 years to clean up an oil spill and I know they haven't cleaned up anything as there was nothing to clean up.

The liberal mainstream media has all of you replying to this like it was something.

It is Nothing as was the BP “oil spill”. Where is the BP oil spill now? Where are the oil covered gulf coast beaches? Nowhere because the beaches , the Ocean , the Gulf , everything is as it was before this BP “oil spill”.

The liberal media lies. they are the enemy. When will you “conservatives” get it?
