This reinforces the absolute incompetence of the federal government in their role of regulating and overseeing the rig’s design, safety and operations.

MMS utterly failed to regulate the safety of BP’s deep-water drilling operations. Where are those who signed off on this rig up until Feb…Mar…April…May???

They had plenty of forewarning to have skimmers, boom material, manpower, an action plan, etc standing by. Why weren’t BP and MMS prepared for the worst case scenario?

Also, Goldman Sachs and BP CEO Tony Hayward sold a bunch of BP stock during the 1st Quarter, seemingly, “unaware” of the then thought impending disaster. This indicates otherwise.

Bankrupt the NyLons and send them packing back across the pond where they belong... AGAIN.

And send their Kenyan King along with them.
