Scientists Find Giant Plumes of Oil Forming Under the Gulf
~Scientists are finding enormous oil plumes in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, including one as large as 10 miles long, 3 miles wide and 300 feet thick. The discovery is fresh evidence that the leak from the broken undersea well could be substantially worse than estimates that the government and BP have given.

NY Times shows Stupid Is As Stupid Editors
~Like it or not, “Katrina” has become shorthand for a lot: the hurricane itself, the failed levees, the neglect that followed. Maybe The Times should just call it a “disaster,” without modifiers, and be as specific as possible when needed
~Editilla Ho'tellas~ Oh yeah? Why, can't the Times show us how far one has to bend over before they see the backside of the Truf? Like when they sold us on the Iraq War for Bush, and especially in how they play the spit ball for this BP Oil Disaster, the NY Times is the Run And Hide Paper of Broken Record.
Yeah, they used our Man-made Disaster of 8/29/05 to enrich their readership, yet they still to this day will not admit to what actually factually caused the Flood of New Orleans?
Are these horn-rimmed Yankees out of their fucking minds?
~Joseph Treaster, now a professor at the University of Miami, was a Times reporter who was in New Orleans when Katrina hit. He said that mistakes by people made things worse, but,
“No hurricane, no damage.”
Yeah well, I was there too you truth bender, and it was Yes Hurricane, No Damage! Compared to Yes Engineering Failure, Yes Catastrophic Devastation. What "mistakes" by what "people" made what "things" worse, Treaster? Well? Would you like to slide that innuendo and out the other? What the hell did this liar just say? A Non Sequitur, a Memeish Half-Truf.
I was living in New Orleans when Katrina missed the city. Yes, it was a Rock'n'Rolling Storm, but without the Corps' Engineering Failures we would have cleaned that up in a couple of weeks, a month tops. But for the Exquisite Corps Failures, we would not be having this conversation. But for the Corps of Engineers, the NY Times would not have been able to capitalize on the disaster by spinning it wrong over and over and over.
And now they would admit, nay swill in the practice of Journalistic Shorthand? Not on my ground, Bras.
Not in the face of my New Orleans.
IT'S THE LEVEES STUPID!
