he was supposed to accept the help from the international community (could waive Jones Act) and the different people who have tried to bring experts in.
he has dragged his feet in order to shut down Houston oil (not in his pocket) and to punish England.
IMO he is not only a narcissist but also a psychopath who will destroy everyone and everything which doesn’t bow down to him. His dark side is showing more and more everyday.
Bring the Norwegians in. They were called by the Russians to try to save the Kursk crew. They know the sea. No diver’s going down to 5,000 feet. If somebody can fix it, let em fix it.
I read right here on FR that on something like Day 5 the dutch offered several (like 10 or so) Oil sweeper ships (they scoop the oil off the surface of the water) Now over a month has gone by since that offer. How much more oil could have been scooped up and kept from hitting the shores but guess what the Obama admin sent them a nice letter saying we didn't need those ships.
And that is just one item. I've seen two guys on youtube giving a demonstration of hay spread across the water and it attacks the oil then you let it wash to shore and you scoop it up with sea weed scoopers (they use em on beaches so folks don't have to walk through sea weed to get in and out of the water)
Hey it may not work but why not get those two fellows and give 'em a boat and some hay and let em try it close to shore. If it doesn't work well then try something else but Christ these idiots can't even decide who is in charge of what. This is the most inept bunch of clowns ever to be put in charge of our government and that is saying alot since I lived through the Carter years!
