The Dutch ships use gravity to separate the oil and water, which I think would be much more environmentally friendly.
Two questions :
1) Why was their offer of help refused ?
2) What's stopping Obummer from taking up their offer now ?

I think it was refused because it returns a little bit of oil to the water, and Obama didn’t want to give an exception to the rule.

What's stopping Obummer from taking up their offer now ?To succeed in getting $7/gallon gas plus cap and trade passed, it is necessary to have the worse possible environmental impact from the oil.
Obama is about destroying the United States as we know it, isn't that OBVIOUS now?

Why was their offer of help refused ? Two reasons. First being the Jones act. Second being they pump 1% back in and the EPA won't allow that (leaving it 100% instead of 99%)
The Dutch were ready to go what on day 3? The government is just to much to blame as BP far as I'm concerned.

Costner has spent the past 15 years and more than $20 million of his own money to develop the oil separator, which during successful testing, left water 99 percent clean of crude. His machine returns a bit of oil just like the Dutch system.
The difference is PR.
