God Im so sick of hearing people bitch and complain about the spill. You have a bunch of dumbass people who have no idea whats actually going on but yet they have opinions that they want to share with everyone. Liberals like this lady and Obama are ruining this country. Does she have any better ideas on how to fix this leak? Maybe if we didnt have to drill a mile deep b/c were so far out in the ocean than maybe we could plug it easier.:fm::fm:

then go help them do something bout it i mean shit i wish i could do something anything cause alot of people an animals are losing alot down there.

What do you suggest? I can tell you one thing, if I lived down there I wouldnt be holding up a sign protesting BP. I would be on the beach cleaning up or lending a hand where I could. Its not like when there is a tornado where I live and people die, homes are destroyed, and lives torn apart the residents of the Gulf Coast come running.

Is this BPs fault? Of course. Will I stop buying gas from them? Never. We need to drill off shore, and this is what can happen as a result. Hopefully something is gained from this spill. Knowledge so that in the future there is not another spill like this one.

BTW, I would have stopped the leak weeks ago, but like Obama and the rest of his staff, I dont have a ****ing clue how to. I will leave it to the professionals to figure out.

My point is that the news media is making it look as bad as it possibly can. How about showing BP some support? What about being optimistic that the leak will be contained soon? No way. They couldnt possibly do that.

her video was fine and showed nature will be fine in time and that this will all work out

until the last like 30 seconds when she went on "most profitable industry ever"....no crap, you know why you make $10 billion a year....so when a spill happens you have $10 billion to clean it up

Interesting. I'll agree, not being able to stop the leak quickly is bullshit.

I swear that I care as much as anyone. I just hate reading about so much negativity every single day. Who really thinks that BP would rather be losing this oil into the Gulf than refining it so they can sell it? They are losing billions this way. I think they would love to have not had their multi million dollar rig blow up, kill people, sink, and spew oil into the Gulf.

Nobody understands the point here. They make enough money where actions for this possibility should be constantly researched and have a plan in hand for containment. It's happend before and will most likely happen again. A lot of people say it is part of the trade. Well than another part should be taking action for the possibility of disaster. I know it's not the end of the world but it's pathetic the response they have.
