Sounds like those BP contractors came from ACORN.

Senators Boxer and Feinstein did the same thing to Captain Uberti when the Costco Busan hit the golden gate bridge.

Obama has cut the coast guard to the core, cancelled their ship modernization plan and is buying out all the high level officers into early retirement.

Furthermore they are denying promotions to lower level coastguardsmen so they are not moving up in the ranks like they should.

Finally the Obama administration has stopped all recruiting for the coast guard.

The coast guard was not created to be an environmental cleanup crew. The federal government has given them so many missions with absolutely no support it is criminal.

I say heads should role in the Obama administration and Congress for what they are doing to the valiant men and women of the USCG.

I think that’s exactly who they are or unemployed SEIU thugs or convicts. It will all come out in the end. Obama and his leftist pals told BP who they could hire and who they couldn’t. Mostly they just stand around doing nothing...but BP is building them dormatories to live in (at the request of the WH no doubt). Why would locals need dormatories or national guard troops ‘guarding’ them? It’s all very strange.

"it will be a month before another ship large enough to hold oil gets there"

Terrible job of logistics, terrible. BP and Gov get a grade of F- on the response to the leak.
