BP said the leak was only 1000 barrels per day. And refused to release video that would easily deny that reality. It took orders directly from Obama to force BP to release that video. Then BP said it was only 5000 barrels per day. Now BP is denying they said that. BP repeatedly kept saying there was no reason to measure the size of this leak because (their own memos imply) they feared anyone might understand how big this leak really was.
So this was all Obama's fault. We know this only because wacko extremists say so?
The leak was always somewhere between one million and three million gallons every day. We know this only because Obama had to step in and order BP to release video and other facts.
And still BP's refusal to release information is all Obama's fault - because wacko extremists say so.
We also know government has nothing to avert the damage - because government should not have such tools. We also know that when wacko extremists were running government, the MMS people - whose job was to make surge BP, et al had those tools - were going to industry paid-for sexting parties. Parties that any MBA and party boy president would approve of. $20,000 parties that were 'business as usual' in a government that fixed FEMA, SEC, FDIC, financial oversight, GM, AIG. Who would not even prosecute Enron until the State of Oklahoma force it using overt embarrassment.
But somehow this is all Obama's fault - because a wacko extremist says it is so.
At what point do wacko extremist apologize to everyone for inventing lies and myths - constantly? Oh. That is also Obama's fault.
We should expect massive damage from LA to southern FL because that was a foregone conclusion a month ago. Anyone who thinks booms or skimmers will avert the damage is lying to themselves. Time to avert this damage was many years ago when government regulation was so routinely subverted everywhere that even MMS employees enjoyed sexting parties and other $20,000 benefits.
