Yeah, the Obama people could have prerecorded ads with different messages depending on whether the cap succeeds or fails.

LOL, all the ROVs are moving away like they are thinking, “oh hell no we don’t want to be close when the plume starts swinging that bad boy!”

If this works, Ol’ #4 is going to wind up in the Smithsonian.

The cap and the LMRP I sharing some quality time first... “Hi, I’m Cap, do you blow around here often?”

There is a power cart about 20 feet above the cap, and that is tethered to the tanker ship.

Now the Rov’s are grabbing on to do the fine manuevouring.

This is from a few thousand posts ago

Bob Gibbs,
If this works load Option A into the teleprompter. If it fails load Option B into the teleprompter. Don't screw this up, moron.

Rahm

Option A:
I'm proud to announce that my hard work has paid off and the leak is stopped and the oceans are receding. I can't take all the credit. Actually, I can. Thank you.

Option B:
BP has failed again. We tried to work with them, and they would not listen. Their greed and hatred of black people has kept them from taking our advice, which would have stopped this problem. Obviously, this is a failed company that is in need of a government bailout. We will work with the unions to ensure a smooth transition of ownership. I now turn this briefing over the the Attorney General who will be making an announcement about the new country we are having designated as a state sponsor of terror. Britain.

I thought the ROVs would have been holding onto the Cap to help position it. But I guess they are just swing over into the plum and hope it works.

I wonder how much BP could’ve asked to stencil someone’s logo across the side of #4.
