Did anyone mention yet that the Dutch offered several ships with collection booms on day 3 and our government refused.
 
No...

Those working with the coast guard or BP to fix the problem would be in the immediate vicinity. Some of the benzo's will cause them to hallucinate. Others will make them pretty sick.
 
... to do what they should have been allowed to do nearly 2 months ago.

How you "Big Government" assholes like red tape now?

BP gets OK to burn off captured oil, gas at sea

PASS CHRISTIAN, Miss. – BP won permission to start burning oil and gas piped up from its broken seafloor well as part of a pledge to more than triple how much crude it stops from spewing into the Gulf of Mexico.

Federal authorities gave permission late Monday for BP PLC to use a new method that involves pumping oil from the busted wellhead to a special ship on the surface, were it would be burned off rather than collected.

The British oil giant announced Monday it hopes to trap as much as roughly 2.2 million gallons of oil daily by the end of June as it deploys additional containment equipment, including the flaring system.

The plan, unveiled after the federal government pressed BP to work faster on containing the gusher, came as President Barack Obama paid his fourth visit to the stricken Gulf and promised residents that life would return to normal after the worst oil spill in U.S. history, which has disrupted fishing and tourism and spoiled ecologically rich estuaries.

Because OPEN burning of crude oil results in thousands of different compounds that are NOT CO2 from incomplete combustion. Refined petrolium products intended for burning are short chained, easily oxidized compounds. Crude oil has many many large carbon compounds. The smoke from openly burning crude oil has everything from benzene to buckyballs in it.
 
Oh

Anyway, I was actually looking for some of the old Beyond Petroleum commercials, particularly the ones where they brag about how awesome their offshore drilling is. (You know, where they have 1 platform that has like 100 wells it drills from) Just because I think it might be funny to see them again.

Instead, I found this:

....this has no impact on how much is captured, only what they do with that captured oil.
 
Money used = time taken off.

Way to stay on subject. Something about conservatives and the straw man.
 
Yes, openly burning crude oil is good and is the first thing that should have been done.

+1 notch on DE stupidity belt.

And when I say everything, I mean literally thousands of potentially hazardous compounds.
 
say Billy, do you know where one can dump Benzopyrene?

we have a contaminated site. wned:
 
Ask Obama and BP.

With a little luck, you could ask them BOTH at once today.

But don't worry, I'm sure even after all this time, that still won't happen.
