I heard the NYTimes is down to a staff of 7 which includes 4 delivery boys!

At the rate its going, it will be a tabloid competitor in grocery lines real soon. It certainly can't compete with GRIT!

You're right. There's too much that is public record to rely on a news source. Especially the New York Times.

Here are the links from the US Department of Interior Minerals Management Service Gulf Of Mexico Region Fast Facts Search Page.

Not sure why the links aren't working. But you can to go the mms site and search it.
http://www.gomr.mms.gov[url][code][url][/url][/code][/url]

Good times (and anybody else interested), there is a trick to pasting in links so they work.

Go over to "display BBCodes" and click it.

Hit the URL button in the code menu and it will then let you paste the link in so that it shows up correct and works.

Thanks BBG. You learn something everyday.

Actually, 4 of the 7 are parttimers. They spend the rest of their time as the delivery boys.

Did we really expect that because of one stupid accident that drilling would end? Is that what we want? Do you want to continued to be enslaved to the Arabs? We need drilling to be opened in more shallow waters with better regulation. Make them get the best protective equipment. Make their test results be transmitted automatically to the regulating agency with a red flag given on all results that cast doubts on the operation.

That sir makes way too much sense for the average alarmist! Liberals love crises...they thrive on them. This crises only gives them the
platform and opportunity to restrict exploration and production and raise the tax on existing supplies. Ultimately the price of petro products
will escalate and the libs will glory in that situation. I have hope though because I heard Obama is visiting the region again one day this week.
Maybe this time he will even fly over the area. I'm sure he'll speak very eloquently as to the dastardly deeds of BP and, as usual,
offer nothing constructive or even hopeful. But I'm still clinging to the talking point...."We've been on it since day one."
As for the naysayers who may be lost on the forum and reading this post by "accident"....its my opinion and I for one like my opinions!

I nearly lost my drink when I watched the clip of Carville giving the One down the river for not coming and helping lead his people of the big easy to the promise land. This one could well be the One's Katrina, with the exception that no one has every found Bush's weather machine that created Katrina, but everyone sees the One's administration oversight failure over this oil rig.

Carville should get an award for that performance! GEAUX TIGERS! He should lead their next homecoming parade!
