Which is what conservatives wanted "Drill Here, Drill Now" I thought the conservatives would be all on that. Separation of church and state is not up their alley. That's for the courts to decide

How is he trying to cover it up? WTF are you talking about?
 
and what responsibilities does the state have in this situation since the oil rig (a potentially dangerous thing as we now see) is parked right on their front door?
 
i like how when the conversation is all about how the oil spill is due to BP's negligence, and how dare Rand Paul call it an accident, Alexthedouche could go on for weeks about how horrible and globally devistating the oil spill is, that it ruined countless lives, this that and the other.

but when the thread implies that it's a tarnish on Obama's record, he refers to it as "oil on pelicans."
 
It was all from The New York Times:

are YOU retarded?? How the fuck can anyone say that dozens upon dozens of people dying and left for dead and abandoned for days is LESS than an oil spill?

Thats like saying the Ft Hood shooting>911 simply because it happened on obama's watch..gtfoh

And i like how 3 weeks ago people were like this is just ONE rig incident drilling is safe.. drill baby drill. Now those people are environmental activists. And jimeigh is just a dickwad no matter what the subject or time.
 
woah there, hoss. your weird grammar aside, i'm gonna go ahead and remind you that i didn't say which one was worse. i was just amused by your understatement of the oil spill's impact.
 
Once you get a certain number of miles off the coast, the territorial waters are the responsibility of the federal government.
 
1. well its 3 am here..
2. the oil spill is incredibly fucked up but no one should think what is essentially an environmental contamination issue is much worse than direct human suffering on a massive scale.
3. youre STILL a dick. And not even a healthy dick either youre a droopy veiny diseased penis with the bulbous head kind of dick.

good night bitches

You need to read this. The Feds weren't as innocent of wrong doing as you're making them out to be.
 
I don't think we're far enough into this yet to see who gets "made to pay for the cleanup" yet.

What I do want is the best petroleum engineers in the world working on stopping the flow from the well. Chances are, they're employed by BP/Exxon-Mobil/Chevron, not the ACOE.
 
I didn't say they were innocent. How did the feds force the city to waste levee money on stupid shit? How did the Feds force cowardly Mayor Nagin to lie about his evac plans, then abandon the people of his city to drown?
 
I still think you can drill safely. just that BP didn't. There has to be consequences.
 
Absolutely you can. But not if you cut corners and neglect investigating every possible scenario.
 
Saying this is Obama's fault is like breaking breaking the soda fountain at McDonalds then holding it against them.
 
Yes it was Obama's fault that they used a fault valve cut off switch and that the industry was in bed with regulators. All Obama's fault.

Fuck it. I'm going to blame my bad day on Obama. Why not?
