Of course. Why wouldn’t they be? I mean, really, haven’t they outlived their usefulness? When was the last time you heard someone say…”Oh man, did you hear what happened in _________, God it’s gonna be almost impossible to wait for Brian Williams to come on at 5:30 so I can get the whole story!” Besides, who the hell gets off work in time to watch … Continue reading Network Evening News Ratings Down Across the Board…Good
We’ve been talking about it on the internet for a week now, and John Wathen on BPOilslick got it, photos of cleanup crews with heavy loaders, dredging up sand and then dumping it on tar balls and pools of oil. Clean beach may be good for the tourist’s photos, but really bad for toxicity levels. Apparently, this is British Petroleum doing everything it can to … Continue reading BP caught covering up the oil with sand, the photos, the Coast Guard denial
Kevin Davis, the President of St. Tammany Parish stated today that the dispersants (Corexit), being used in the Gulf of Mexico are to blame for the oil in Lake Pontchartrain. The chemicals bond with the oil, causing it to stay underwater and it is believed this method is how those devious little tar balls are getting past the barges and through the Rigolets waterway. Mr. Davis called … Continue reading Dispersants Being Blamed for Tar Balls in Lake Pontchartrain
You mean to tell me that the short-sightedness was not the sole property of British Petroleum, that all the oil companies have been making shortsighted decision for the past 100 years, and they’ve been enabled in these endeavors by the state’s politicians? Say it ain’t so Landrieu, say it ain’t so. 8000 miles of canals were dug through the wetlands for easier and cheaper access … Continue reading Who Will Pay to Fix Louisiana? Big Oil is Big Pimpin’…
Good morning all, just a way to start off the day, a little bit of motivational music…thought provoking wonder at the feet of Mr. Maynard… “Vicariously I, live while the whole world dies…” Have an extra special day.

– Do Christians believe it okay to strap a car battery to a detainee’s nuts? – Do Christians believe it okay to deprive detainee’s of food and water? – Do Christians believe it okay to simulate drowning? – Do Christians believe it okay, as in the case of a detainee at Guantanamo Bay, to keep a man awake for fifty-five days, blasted with ice-cold water … Continue reading Can Christians Live With Torture?
I live in a crazy world, really do….and that’s not just because I am an Adult Crisis Counselor… nope. I live in this world of my own ideas where I like to think that some things would be obvious… And in my world, if an oil rig blew up and started spurting…oh, I don’t know…something like 2 Million Gallons of oil into the Gulf of … Continue reading The Scientists are on board in helping the Gulf, unfortunately, that boat ain’t allowed offshore
From Project Gulf Impact: Kindra Arnesen is back with this latest line of BP coercion…so get this, if the Fisherman in the Gulf Coast decide, for whatever reason (family, toxicity of Corexit, oil, no respirators) etc…British Petroleum will call this an income source that they willfully decline, and then deduct possible earnings they could have made from any claims of reparation. Hey Bob Dudley! Yeah … Continue reading BP Punishes Fisherman Who Won’t Expose Themselves to Corexit Toxicity – Kindra Arnesen is Back!
The tired refrain continues: British Petroleum is full of shit. It has been 78 days now since the Deepwater Horizon BP catastraphuk occurred and the lies keep coming, thick and sticky and suffocating. Face it…we’re all Brown Pelicans and this is BP’s show. Before the well exploded and, let us not forget, killed 11 people, BP said in the case of a spill, they could … Continue reading Recovery Effort Falls Vastly Short of BP Estimates…Shhh, bp is lying…didn’t hear it from me
