Oil spill: A 'butt-naked' cleanup emperor

We should stuff the leak with BP, Halliburton and Transocean executives until the oil stops flowing.

Then send in the Republican "Drill, Baby, Drill" cheerleading squad with buckets and mops for shore clean up duty.

Mission Accomplished.

I thought something was strange when I originally heard 5,000 gallons, as usually oil is quoted in barrels. Now of course it is at least being quoted in barrels. Either reporting at the head is screwing up, BP is screwing up, or both.

True idiocy.
By the agenda-driven reporter, manufacturing a "crisis" where none exists. So that the Left will do what they always do--propose tax hikes, grab power, and make things more expensive.
Mother nature will clean up after this oil leak. Like it has for the last 2 million years. Fact is, oil is a natural substance, which seeps into the ocean all the time. As one expert has observed,
"The truth is oil is a natural part of our oceans. In the Gulf of Mexico alone, over 5,000 barrels of oil a day seeps out from vents in the earth into the ocean. It’s part of the natural cycle, but few will speak of this truth today. Oil is a natural substance. It’s part of the earth, and obviously ocean life continues every year despite over two million barrels of oil escaping in the Gulf of Mexico alone—a very small body of water compared to the Oceans, which experience the same phenomenon. If the Gulf can survive two million barrels a year, just think how much seepage takes place in any of the oceans. It would probably be enough to make an environmentalist sick.

The bottom line is there is reason to be concerned with the oil spill off the coast of the Louisiana, but the oceans deal with millions and millions of gallons of oil mixing with the oceans every day naturally. It’s all part of the natural processes of the earth."

I could go on (there's a lot of Obama administration incompetence involved in this) but the bottom line is that the agenda-driven media refuses to "revisit" its preconceptions and biases.

If journalists did their job, they'd offer this perspective:
Take an Olympic sized swimming pool. Fill it with water. Then take an eyedropper, and squeeze 1 tiny drop of oil into that pool.
That's about the equivalent of the Gulf "disaster" and "crisis".
But as we know, "crisis" and "disaster" headlines sell newspapers. Facts don't. And as we know, "crisis" and "disaster" headlines give Leftists in and out of the media an excuse to propose what they ALWAYS propose--higher taxes, more spending, more government, higher costs to us taxpayers.

HHH, I'm liking the "executive stocking stuffer" idea.

However, the PSI of the gunk coming out of that pipe is too high.

In fact, the tip off on the whole thing came in an unguarded moment from that Texas A & M professor the Senate had in the hearing Tuesday:

He said: One thing I know for sure is that it can be controlled once the relief well is drilled....

Meaning: It will only be controlled when the relief well is operable.

Seeing as how every thing else he said was vague, qualified, and essentially meaningless.....

That could be 90 days.

90 x how many million gal. =

Well, you do the math.

What it equals, to quote Sen. DeMint, is:

Waterloo for the Rep Party.

Spill, Baby, Spill!

Equal Crime,

Let me give you an all-natural recipe for a cake for you to bake:

5 T crude oil
2 t arsenic
1/2 t mercury
1 C asbestos (for fiber)
Dash of Uraninite for color

Mix ingredients and bake for 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

I'd eleborate more on how to mix the ingredients, but it really won't matter.

Let us all know how that "all-matural" cake worked out for you. I'm sure it will take care of your ignorance, and all the other problems you might have.

I agree ornery and Obsessed with Tea Bags; stuff that hole with the whores that took millions, those executives that furthered their careers from BP...they have dead pelicans on their hands: Obama and Mary Landrieu. In fact, you can stuff the whole bunch of political hypocritical whores in Washington right into your hole.

Several BP executives have given directly to Landrieu’s campaign, including current and previous U.S. operation Presidents Lamar McKay and Robert Malone. Other donors include Margaret Hudson, BP’s America vice president, and Benjamin Cannon, federal affairs director for the U.S. branch. Donations ranged from $1,000 to $2,300 during the past campaign cycle.

Environmentalists complain that Landrieu has played down the impact of oil spills.

“I mean, just the gallons are so minuscule compared to the benefits of U.S. strength and security, the benefits of job creation and energy security,” Landrieu said at a hearing last month on offshore drilling. “So while there are risks associated with everything, I think you understand that they are quite, quite minimal.”

On further pondering the chemical disperser use, it seems like a great disappearing act, that the plumaged animals may applaud, but the fish and other ocean inhabitants that breathe by taking in water to extract their oxygen, will encounter numerous oil/dispersant droplets contaminating its gills and in turn the upper echelons of the food chain.

Hey, one of you brilliant connected 'Ditto Heads' want to get this to Rush?

Ocean experts are predicting the oil will loop through the Gulf, nailing Fla, the Keys, the barrier reef, then move up the East Coast. Then what's to keep it out of the Arctic or Europe?
Nothing.
It could become a hemisphere sized event.

Alright, it's pretty obvious that natural seeps are a very small part of the annual totals.

By far human activities dwarf the natural seeps.

And if we have to wait 90 days for the relief well, let's see thats,,,,,, well it blows my TI's mind.

Either this is not a major spill or we have been lied to. Which is it? Weeks go by and the public still doens't know...who's covering up? Gee I wonder?
