Federal Gov't Halts Sand Berm Dredging
WDSU ^ | 6-22-10 | Not attributed

Posted on 06/23/2010 5:22:33 AM PDT by RKBA Democrat

The federal government is shutting down the dredging that was being done to create protective sand berms in the Gulf of Mexico.

The berms are meant to protect the Louisiana coastline from oil. But the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department has concerns about where the dredging is being done.

Plaquemines Parish President Billy Nungesser, who was one of the most vocal advocates of the dredging plan, has sent a letter to President Barack Obama, pleading for the work to continue.

“News reports say a massive oil strip hit Pensacola Beach overnight. “

Can you find a link or video for that news? I was having a hard time finding any relavant news of this spill this morning. The news organizations and google are hiding the news of this spill now in order to protect Obama. I heard the report briefly on MSLSD and saw one brief video clip and that was it. It looked horrible. Black oil washing up in the Pensacola Beach area.

It is time to demand Obama’s resignation. This is a dereliction of duty..high crimes and misdemeanors and abuse of power.

Louisianians need to stand up and tell the USF&W dept to try and make them stop dredging and then post LA National Guard with the dredge machines. It’s obvious who wants to allow the damage to Louisiana to continue. Our federal government. It’s time to stand up to them. - OB1

That is the only conclusion. He is purposely NOT doing anything that can help slow the flow of oil or protect the shoreline. He is actively fighting against every single protection of the gulf coast.

He's acting just like a hit and run communist or islamic (both of which he is) terrorist, striking quickly to cripple efforts to deal with his Oilspill and then moving on, after he's done as much damage as possible, when the heat gets too great.

“Comprehend” this:

They want to dramatically reduce the population through abortion, euthenasia, and control of food and medical resources.

They want this reduced population shivering in the dark and starving so that they’re easier to control.

The “ungovernable” will be eliminated.

Yes, it’s evil, but not beyond comprehension.
Know the truth and fight them.

Nungesser who is on CNN cheerleading Obama finally gets stabbed in the back for it, as Obama does everyone eventually.

I heard about the Pensacola spill either on CNN or Fox radio news, about 7:30 this morning.

YES! Trying to negotiate with the feds is useless. GOv. Jindal needs to order the work to continue and call out the National Guard to protect it.

FWIW what is the Community Organizer going to do...sue?

Jindal needs to go ahead and take care of LA.

And stopping this after the moratorium on drilling gets squashed in court? Sounds like retribution.

Thanks. Try googling it (like I did). It is almost impossible to find any info or video on it. Like I said...our corrupt media is trying to hide the info from the American people now.

Likely a letter, faxed. That’s how most of our communication with the federales happens.

I was thinking it was probably an order on paper by some unseen PTB.

I'd be tempted to Xerox my butt and fax a copy of that as my answer, to the Sand Berm Police, with a cc to BO.

Yeah, well... the left is definitely trying to trip the wire. It’s a question how long you can survive while avoiding it.

I’m not saying we’re “there” even today, but “179 Things...” was published over six years ago.

What’s wrong with them?

They’re evil. Does that explain it?

You are spot on. THIS IS BEING DONE ON PURPOSE. Remember...just a few days ago the barges vacuuming up the oil were stopped too:
