Ok..they knew...we know they knew....Bo knew....and how does this change the outcome that Bo will continue to manipulate any event, happening, crisis, etc. regardless of the fallout on the American people, be it peoples lifes, the environment or rolling the bus over his own.

Bo is still in office, congress will still do what they want while using every distraction to keep us from watching their slight of hands...and the media to wrap it in any package of their choosing.

So how is this going to change anything....I want to know.

2012 is the game changer and until then there is little we can do.

The other question is: What could *they* - the Federal government - do?

Who must the Feds rely on to stop this gusher?

A new Congress in 2011 can hold official investigations.

Yes, but you can’t blame Obama. He could not hear this because it is so darn hard to listen when your yakker won’t stop yakking.

Yes..that could possibly be...but meanwhile whoever is pulling all the strings, and likewise Bo's as well...will not go down, Bo will be the fall guy and likely planned for from the beginning.

Additionally by the time this all would go thru the courts Bo and his cohort's will continue their agenda to destroy the country...the most that will do is slow him down..maybe..but only if they also add onto his dereliction of duty and treasonous decisions...all that he has done.

BUMP----

So while the Chicago and DC mob were raking in $$$$$$$,
the government played "mickey the dunce".

1) Pres_ _ent Obama and Rahm and the DNC gets $$$$$ from BP ............. check
"Obama biggest recipient of BP cash
.. more than $3.5 million…with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama"

"British Petroleum (BP) pumped $71,000 into Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign"

"White House chief tied to BP adviser"

"Top PR firm for BP tied to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel"

Bombshell expose'. The real money is in the use of dispersements.
NALCO is based in Chicago with subsidiaries in Brazil, Russia, India, China and Indonesia. "

FACTOID:
Oil dispersant manufacturer NALCO is associated with Exelon
which was Rahm Emanuel's first big deal on Wall Street,
and with ComEd -for which Axelrod did the PR which Bill Ayers' father was CEO.
ComED & Exelon are connected to NALCO through UChicago Argonne and Fermilab.
UCHICAGO ARGONNE, LLC--Stimulus Contract: $163,724,912.00 DOE May 22, 2009

Million gallons of dispersant have been deployed containing PCB

Agencies to Study Dispersant Use and Ecosystem Impacts of Dispersed Oil in the Gulf of Mexico"


2) The secret reasons for the $$$$$ to Obama ............. check
BP oil leak: Fallen Deepwater Horizon was tapping second largest oil deposit in the world"


3) Pres_ _ent Obama exempts BP from normal requirements ......... check
U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study (Obama let it happen)"

Gulf oil spill: BP has a long record of legal, ethical violations "

Federal Regulator Repeatedly Failed to Inspect Deepwater Horizon "

"U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study"

"Obama admin exempted BP's Gulf drilling from environmental impact study "

"Obama sheltered BP's Deepwater Horizon rig from regulatory requirement"

"Red Flags Were Ignored Aboard Doomed Rig "

"US allowed drilling 'without required permits"

"U.S. Said to Allow Drilling Without Needed Permits"


4) Pres_ _ent Obama, the DNC and BP conspire to create
a dangerous, negligent environment before, during, and after the event ......... check

Rig Survivors: BP Ordered Shortcut On Day Of Blast"

BP's new plan risks worsening oil spill"

Internal Documents Show Early Worries About Safety of Rig"

BP reports warning signs before gulf oil rig explosion"

"Heated Argument on Rig Hours Before Blast ( Deepwater Horizon oil spill )"

"Workers on doomed BP oil rig: Corners were cut to save money"

"BP Used Riskier Method to Seal Oil Well Before Blast"

"U.S. oil drilling regulator ignored experts' red flags on environmental risks"


5) Pres_ _ent Obama, BP, and the DNC begin the obstruction ......... check
"Coast Guard Logs Show Administration Knew Extent of Oil Spill within 24 Hours"

"There Was 'Nobody in Charge' (Deepwater Horizon Explosion and Fire)"

Limited Media Access to Oil Spill"

"McCarthy: Obama hasn't returned call of lawmaker representing district of rig!! "

"Obama sat on sand berm request 2 weeks, still no reply"

"Frustration over sand barriers boils in Louisiana as federal government offers few answers"


6) Pres_ _ent Obama, BP and the DNC begin the coverup ......... check
"BP well may be spewing 100,000 barrels a day"

In their most tenacious effort to control the 'spin' on the worst oil spill disaster in the history,
BP has purchased top internet search engine words so they can re-direct people away from real news on the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe."

BP's Photo Blockade of the Gulf Oil Spill"

BP buses in 400 for photo op with Obama

I can’t stand to see or hear him either. He is revolting and so are the people that still prop him up and believe in him after everything he is doing to our country. My sister and I can barely have a civil discussion anymore because of that man.
