Show Us Your War Face!!! Arrrrrrgh!



Mayor Mitch Landrieu to hold Meeting today on BP Oil Fail

Oil enters the Loop Current and is headed to the Florida Keys
~Dr. Jeff Masters, Wunderblog

~Oil spill forecast for this Thursday night as simulated by the 6pm EDT Monday May 17 runs of the Navy Gulf of Mexico HYCOM nowcast/forecast system and the Global HYCOM + NCODA Analysis from the HYCOM Consortium. See the University of South Florida Ocean Circulation Group website for more information. There are considerable differences between the two models, due in part to the fact that they have much different depictions of the sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and ocean currents at the beginning of their runs. The warm Loop Current is visible as the red colors of the SST field that form a heart-shaped area in the Gulf.
~Also see currents moving gif model: NOAA.


BP Oil Fail - MODIS/Terra Detail (with interpretation), May 17 ~SkyTruth

Tar balls found: Key West beach, U.S. Coast Guard..unsure, again?
Ipso'Ratso!~BP/Coast Guard Mouth Rear Adm. Mary Landry (the person who misdirected tax-payers for 2 weeks with BP's 1st Obfuscatory Flow Estimate and then BP's 2nd Obfuscatory Flow Estimate) continues obfuscatin'BP: "We know that the oil has not entered the loop current at this time."
Oh? How's that? Oiji Board? Weather Crickets? Uranal Probes?
Why does this Person In Charge continue to Contradict the Growing Number of Smarter, More Experienced People, Satellite Data and On Site Eye Witnesses (above)? I mean, even NOAA? "Ocean models indicate that the band of oil sheens along the southern edge of the plume which is in a counterclockwise eddy could enter the northeastern edge of the Loop Current." Forecast 19-May at 1800 CDT
Better question: why is she still in charge of the BP Corporate Incredulity, Toweling in the White'Wash Room?
It is time to start taking down these Miss-Speakers one at a time...
Since we know he follows Your New Orleans Ladder, surely Dbl- Tpl Rear Adm. Thad Allen, late-named INCIDENT COMMAND and Commandant of our US Coast Guard, can perhaps give us the Straight Dope on what is up here, who turned our formerly believable Coast Guard Heroes into a pack of PR Ho'zers?
Here's Adm. Allen with an All Hands Order for the Web 2.0!
Does he sound as if he Believes a Word of this BS? Naaah!

Someone tell the Admiral we're 10.0 light years past Web 2.0?
Tar Balls, Admiral. Tar Balls, not Your Balls, Our Balls'n'Ova
America's Testicular Fortitude Dispersed by BP in'da Gulf!
Bend over any further with this Corp'Com'A'Rama, Admiral, and you will soon literally start quacking out'yer ass.
All this Public Affairs Facebook Glory'Hole might be fine for Recruitment Videos, but in times of Man-Made Disaster, when our Nation's Shores are threatened by Foreign Interests, it mixes with your Coast Guard Maneuvers like Oil and Water.
Keep this up and you'll soon start to sound just like the Goddamned Lying Corps of Engineers.

BP junk fix exceeds tanker ship,
yet they want mooore...arrggh!

~The maximum amount of oil that can be sent to a ship daily from a leaking pipe in the Gulf of Mexico via a tube is about 2,000 barrels, which is less than half of what BP officials say is leaking per day. Still no Word on Stomping This Bug.

Obama Moves To Cover BP's Ass?
Seeks WH "Special Commission"
to "investigate" Oil Disasters etc

~President Barack Obama will name a special White House commission to investigate the Gulf of Mexico oil spill even as eight Senate Democrats on Monday asked Attorney General Eric Holder to begin a criminal investigation into the disaster. The commission, modeled after the ineffective ass-wipe panel established by President Ronald Reagan to investigate the space shuttle Challenger disaster, will look for ways to improve both oil industry practices and federal oversight to better protect workers and the environment, yami yamyammer'yada bow'wow according to a White House official.
Oh Snap!
When we really need Police Work, His'O'ner wants... Dan Quayle? or Richard Feynman?
Of course No Criminal Investigations will happen while The Special Commission is in Session for Months with the Evidence. This is what happened Exactly with the ill-fated Challenger Disaster. But for Richard Feynman, Dan Quayle's people would have succeeded in burying beneath Time and Paperwork the evidence of their friends at Thiokol's engineering malfeasance.
We should let everyone Get At The Facts of This Disaster, then later Obama can do his little committee thingy.
Who is our Feynman Man?

Gulf of Mexico oil spill reinforces the industry's bad will for American Indians
~From Cyril Neville's Blog~ I'm writing this on behalf of the forgotten People of places like Bob's Town, Bayou Blue, Bayou Black, Island Jean Charles and and Shrimpers Row.
I will be performing with the Voice of the Wetlands Allstars at the Gulf Coast concert in New Orleans Sunday, and in all the media surrounding this big event i have read very little about what will be done out of all this for the poor people who live in the areas I mentioned. In fact,these same people have never really recovered from the effects of storms going all the way back to hurricane Andrew.
These are our fishermen, our shrimpers, whose means of making a living and providing for their families that will be affected by this man made disaster now lurking in the Gulf. I hope this letter will prompt others to find out more about the People who actually live in the Wetlands and their on going agony. ~Cyril Neville

Looks like this may be Obama's undoing as Katrina helped unravel the Bush debacle. Gads, what a sorrowful state we find ourselves in because of greed.
