DRILL BABY DRILL !!!

Fox News brings us pictures: Massive Gulf Oil Spill From Space - Fair and balanced as always. More from Fox at the end of this post.

Who's to blame? Does it matter anymore? Nobody in a suit ever goes to jail - we all know that.


But never letting a good crime against humanity go to waste - our lying CorporAmerikan Propascamda media knows that there are fist-fulls of advertising bucks to be had : first by selling offshore drilling to the mushroom masses- then later reporting on the ensuing disaster.


Meanwhile the endless arguing over nothing and non-news is beamed to the public to cover up the latest crime against humanity - and all other creatures we're supposed to be sharing this planet with.


No time to worry about investigating past crimes like who lied us into these wars, who is keeping them going, or who will be the next target for extrajudicial murder by our mafia-executive branch.


No time to count how many bodies are piling up while the bombs rain down from the sky on civilians everywhere - or to keep track of the profits made by our patriotic mercenary industry of death. No - we have yet another corporate catastrophe to fix - while the corporate-rats flee the stinking, sinking ship the rest of us have to live on.

An article from May 2, 2010 brings us this comment from some buck-passing oil-con-man:

" BP's chairman is rejecting criticism that his company's safety record played a role in the drilling rig explosion and oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.


Lamar McKay is putting the blame on "a failed piece of equipment. He tells ABC's "This Week" that he doesn't know how much oil is flowing from the well off the Louisiana coast. He says that estimates of 5,000 barrels a day are uncertain."


I'm not stupid enough to believe a word out of that guy's mouth - and given the circumstances - how 'bout we not rely on his judgement from now on - huh?

Perhaps this article from Natural News (CLICK here) will help you get a feel for how bad this mess really is:

"In other words, while the government has been telling us the leak is only 5,000 barrels a day, the true volume could be more like 80,000 barrels a day.

Wiping out the Gulf

It hardly needs to be stated that 80,000 barrels of oil a day leaking into the Gulf of Mexico could destroy virtually all marine life in the region."

Here's another article from the New York Times where we learn how people from the oil company are here to help:

"Scientists studying video of the gushing oil well have tentatively calculated that it could be flowing at a rate of 25,000 to 80,000 barrels of oil a day. The latter figure would be 3.4 million gallons a day. But the government, working from satellite images of the ocean surface, has calculated a flow rate of only 5,000 barrels a day.

BP has resisted entreaties from scientists that they be allowed to use sophisticated instruments at the ocean floor that would give a far more accurate picture of how much oil is really gushing from the well.

“The answer is no to that,” a BP spokesman, Tom Mueller, said on Saturday. “We’re not going to take any extra efforts now to calculate flow there at this point. It’s not relevant to the response effort, and it might even detract from the response effort.”


Pure Greed. All that life - wasted. So one or two greedy pigs can stuff their pockets with even more money. Drill baby drill?


Do you remember who was saying that? Drill baby Drill?
