2. I keep voicing that same sentiment. Stalling and obfuscation is all we are getting from BP.
It is absolutely intolerable!

3. Because we live in
a Fascist country now. Multi-national Corporations tell the politicians what to do and they get paid for it.

It's that simple.

6. Corporations don't give a fuck about the common man, only as far as exploiting them!
Edited on Fri Jun-11-10 03:29 PM by sasquuatch55
Where were the engineers that were supposed to figure out every angle, and every possible
disaster scenario , the ones that were supposed to have a plan for these things? This is heinous, unacceptable, and inexcusable. Purely evil! Oh Yea, Cheneys' involved.

4. Compelling, must see video.

I've never seen such utter hopelessness in people before. I doubt that last man in the video is alone in his feelings. :(

9. BP should be put in receivership.....
Any intelligent government, would have done this almost immediately. The fact that this mess is out of hand is due to the servile & criminal relationships that have existed(s) between the US Government and large corporations. It's the only explanation. When you see our imbecilic, Senators ( Landrieu, etc ) continuing to mitigate this disaster it doesn't take a genius to know who is paying their bills. These clowns have got to go. At least this spill has flush out our corrupt system into the open.

10. Please recommend and pass this message to all of your friends and family,
Because we need to keep people informed of not only the environmental tragedy but also the human tragedy that often goes unreported

Tremendous loss and sacrifices will be made by this community and they will be dealing with this long after the media circus has left, probably for generations!

I appreciate all of your comments and will pass them along to the folks I spoke with last week.

I know they truly appreciate your support and good wishes.

EJO

13. "when the president comes they do a dog & pony show for him"
this is why I believe he should move offices down there until this disaster is under control!

14. obviously we are just cooked and done
It is obvious that "our" government has become "their" government and it doesn't care one whit about the cleanliness of the new sewer called GOM.

seize the assets, arrest the terrorists, finish bp, and start a real goddamned cleanup.

UFB *unfuckingbelievable*

17. It's called disaster capitalism
and cost benefit analysis. It's cheaper to let the gulf coast die than it is to try and save it. Once it's dead there won't be any reason to restrict deep water drilling. The oil industry isn't vested in shrimp fishing, environmental protection or tourism.
