BP said there was an explosion, that people were killed and that they were in control of the situation. No one knew about the broken well and the leaking oil in the beginning.. FEMA had no reason to do anything. Now they do, so lets see what they do and how they handle the situation.

Actually I was watching the news the other night on HANNITY and there is actually a law that states that it is the federal governments responsibility to come in and contain the oil spill if the oil company has not done so within 48 hours. This administration sat on its hind end for 9 days, yes a full NINE days before it did the first thing to help. It's funny how only FOX news will put this info out there where as the lame stream news networks would rather sit back and go boo hoo about it rather than report the actual facts about it. And I still think something fishy is admidst here with this rig explosion. It just seems to coincedental that roughly a month after BO says we can begin to do oil exploration in the gulf a major rig problem happens. I know I'm a tin foil hat kinda guy, but it just seems to be way to many things surrounding this that don't add up. I do feel for the 11 peopel that were never found, and I know that this is a dangerous profession that isn't perfect. I would just like to hear some actual facts about what happened, and for it to be addressed and stopped before it kills the gulf for years to come.

Guy's Guy's, I'm sure as soon as they make up a story they will tell us what happened. They may have to reinstate the 911 commission to get to the bottom of this.
On a more serious note: My partner is in route as we write with 8000' of Oil Boom, our surplus Oil skimmer, pumps, hoses and towing a work boat.
We'll be busy.
Respect to her Crew past...

N. Korea? Media blackout? I heard it was George Bush's personal rig which is now costing him $22 million a day in lost revenue.
The EPA and the entire Federal Government could not get their finger up their arse with both hands. They are like cops, they show up and talk about what happened and write a report when you really need them but make an illegal u-turn and they are all over you.

I was eatin' it up until they started talking about nuking the well head.

Sandecker could drive the NUMA ship right into the slick and Dirk and Giordino could fight off the North Koreans while Rudy configures a way to spray extra strength Dawn on the spill and remedy the situation just in time to find some hot babes and treasure, what would they do on the second day?
