You, like this thread, ignore the points and even, like this thread, the entire issue.

That's because your entire resources consist of:

*changing the subject
*deny, deflect, derail
*complaining about Obama--and some silly thing, not actual policy
*complaining "But Mom! Those other posters did it too!"
*complaining that all the people in the thread are trolls
*calling them names when that doesn't work
*trying to pretend you don't by claiming other people are doing the above instead
*continually going after a few posters you personally dislike, regardless of content
*repeating jokes/satire you've heard as if "news" or "analysis"

Never an argument, never solid source support, never a close look at the points---you don't need to, because your entire arsenal is completely devoid of any need to understand the topic whatsoever--it plugs in no matter what.

But it doesn't replace thinking, and it still boils down to----you've got nothing.

Again.

Steffy: U.S. and BP slow to accept Dutch expertise


Three days after the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico, the Dutch government offered to help.

It was willing to provide ships outfitted with oil-skimming booms, and it proposed a plan for building sand barriers to protect sensitive marshlands.

The response from the Obama administration and BP, which are coordinating the cleanup: “The embassy got a nice letter from the administration that said, ‘Thanks, but no thanks,'” said Geert Visser, consul general for the Netherlands in Houston.

Now, almost seven weeks later, as the oil spewing from the battered well spreads across the Gulf and soils pristine beaches and coastline, BP and our government have reconsidered.

U.S. ships are being outfitted this week with four pairs of the skimming booms airlifted from the Netherlands and should be deployed within days. Each pair can process 5 million gallons of water a day, removing 20,000 tons of oil and sludge.

At that rate, how much more oil could have been removed from the Gulf during the past month?

The uncoordinated response to an offer of assistance has become characteristic of this disaster's response. Too often, BP and the government don't seem to know what the other is doing, and the response has seemed too slow and too confused...

Media Matters may be left, but its not making up its own facts , the information is out there various sites if you can turn off your blinders white house press release is real,, the blog is real, the information put out by the coast guard and Deepwater Horizon are all legit...so you are simply whinning  that while it could have been done faster maybe...it IS being done, and has been for a while...so maybe rush and heritage need to get their heads outta their asses and stop whinging until they are up to speed with things...

So you are agreeing with Sanity's claim (backed by sources) that Obama refused international help, from experts, (last month) early in the event.


And as to the OP, it would be more the case that if Democrats had not prevailed in stopping most oil dvelopment on land (specifically in Alaska, where Clinton Vetoed it.), we wouldn't have drilled deep in the gulf for another generation. And would presumably have better robots and such to deal with a catastrophic failure.


And Obama could have not taken BP at its word, thats just lame. Obama didn't have people examining what was going on? Giving him his own Data?



But its far better to repeat the Left Wing Media LIE that Canada requires 2 backup wells. It's like pretending Iraq is under Sharia Law. Just lies spewed by partisan trolls.

So you are agreeing that if Obama had taken outside help when it was offered, there would be less oil in the Gulf.


There is no whining,(sic)" it maybe could have been done faster". The help could have been accepted early last month. And there would be less oil in the gulf. Now.
