On top of it all, there is a leaked memo, obtained by environmental reporter Ben Raines.

A confidential government report on the unfolding spill disaster in the Gulf makes clear the Coast Guard now fears the well could become an unchecked gusher shooting millions of gallons of oil per day into the Gulf.

"The following is not public," reads the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Emergency Response document dated April 28. "Two additional release points were found today in the tangled riser. If the riser pipe deteriorates further, the flow could become unchecked resulting in a release volume an order of magnitude higher than previously thought."


This obfuscation must stop. Obama should be held accountable, but woe to any who criticize him. There is no such thing as real freedom of the press or freedom of speech in this country.

The narcissist-in-chief yucked it up with the press and Hollywood last night and made a token appearance on the Gulf Coast today. This is no laughing matter. The arrogance. The hubris.



Goddesses are weeping for the Gulf.

And liberal politics rules.

Remember the ridicule elicited by this photo of a Republican President
after Katrina?

Dare we say the same about out Homeland Security Chief Napolitano?

Folks, the Ship of State sunk along with the Deepwater Horizon. It perished along with the eleven workers who needlessly gave their lives. No one mentions them anymore, either.
