I guess that I have known this all along, but after multiple examples like this one, it is, without a doubt, the norm. I haven't been naive. Just that it is hard to believe that a fellow American would do such a thing.
Voters need to be told and reminded frequently.
Now is time for leaders who aggressively drive our economy forward. Not a leader who holds one hand behind his back. Otherwise, we will get our rears kicked.
There was thousands of volunteers going to the Gulf Coast to help in the clean up and when they got there they couldn’t find any oil.
Time to have a Zcar-BQ!
When This story first broke it took a bit but all MSM picked it up.
They reported that Obama et el APOLOGIZED so it is not a federal crime...
We have a corrupt justice dept and administration beyond words.
More than THREE pubs needs to speak up now!
The current democrat party (as dramatically different from the previous democrat party of Pat Moynihan) has a long range agenda in service to the goals of their owner, George Soros. The plan is to have fewer Americans, dumber Americans, more central federal government and government dependants, and be a minor portion of a world-wide new order and new world stamped economic morass. What the current democrat party seeks is no less than a conflation of communism and socialism, featuring a federal oligarchy instead of a real Constitutional Republic. They are achieving that goal very rapidly, right before our uneducated, denying eyes. ... And still no one is building the guillotines.
A commission needs to be set up to investigate all fraud and corruption by this Regime since January 2008. A review and investigation of Pelosi et al. for corruption going back to 2006 must also be done, IMO.
-—Three Republican senators demanded -—
Since it was Republicans doing the demanding, it MUST be politically motivated. Therefore it’s not really news - ain’t that right Katie?
We’re still hearing ‘Bush’s Katrina”. I want to hear more about.....
0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP. 0bama’s BP.
Go back and look at the images of an oil soaked bird standing in clean water, with clean birds taking off from clean water in the background. Sure, some areas were hit (mainly because of government policy in regards to skimmer efficiency), but an awful lot seemed overblown. I've seen worse oil slicks in marinas than some in images.
Of course, there are two schools of thought on that--access was limited--to keep reporters out of the worst areas...or to keep them from discovering how little oil hit the beaches.
I'd welcome local FReeper input on that, what did you guys see down there?
My bet is that the Gov't was anxious to make things seem far worse than they were to fine the bejeebers out of BP, (money, money, money, money...) but I might be wrong.
Technically, drilling operations can proceed as soon as the permits are taken care of...then don't issue any.
Wasn’t BP one of O’Bummer’s top contributors?
Carol M. Browner, was she not the same person Clinton put in charge of a new directorate at the EPA in 1995. That EPA stovepipe within WASHDC was one of the primary reasons for the Govt Shutdown 30 Sept 95. Browner has been carrying dirty laundry for years for the Dem’s. This is the True Danger of Appointees - they are not elected officials but have broad power.
