Those miles of boom in Maine supposedly failed inspection although they meet ASTM standards and were considered "superior" by an independent inspector. I suspect they failed cuz they were not made from "free range nylon". Ya know, it's sorta like all those school busses in katrina that couldn't be used for evac cuz they didn't have seat belts, all them peeps died courtesy of Mayor Nagin and Dem Gov Blanco. Way to go Dems, Keel them poor people and drive em to ruin to put em on welfare. Anyone want to tell Froggy who created the MMS? Under which president? Anyone?? Who did absolutely zero to CHANGE it in the last 16 months? (hint: it was Mr Change) If it was so corrupt Obama should have fixed it BEFORE he started proposing more offshore drilling. It is not a question of a long process that wasn't finished. Fixing MMS had not even started so he must have been happy with them. That's not completely true Salazar was supposed to make some changes, and he did, but I think it's reasonable to say that it takes a while to fix a situation that's been going on for decades. I thought he was the wrong choice to begin with. So, who created MMS under which president? Come on. You can say it. "Creating" in Washington mostly means printing new signs for an old building. The fact is all DC regulation is done by people who used to work in that industry and they go back when they lose their government job. It has been that way since George Washington, not just the recent George. I still say if you can't do ANYTHIING in 16 months, how much can we expect in 8 years? Obama shot his whole wad on this health care gift to the big medicine lobby and let the rest of the country go to hell (or stay in hell if that is what you think Bush was). I guarantee, If you ask anyone on the Gulf Coast whether they would rather have clean beaches and their fishing job back or all the overpriced medical insurance they can't afford they would take the clean beach. Nope. At one point the agency was created by a former president. Guess who? Guess who administered it?? Come on, you can say his name.... Rrrrr.... Waaaa.... lol Obama let the economy go to hell????? That would be GWB over 8 years, and perhaps going all the way back to Reagan. No such "overpriced" medical insurance due to Obama. That's a result of decades of neglect. It's now going to be changed. The change is happening, even if you don't want to admit/see it. |

Nope. At one point the agency was created by a former president. Guess who? Guess who administered it?? Come on, you can say his name.... Rrrrr.... Waaaa.... lol Quick question, who regulated offshore drilling before MMS? (hint, it was the same people, with a different sign on the building) Obama let the economy go to hell????? That would be GWB over 8 years, and perhaps going all the way back to Reagan. No such "overpriced" medical insurance due to Obama. That's a result of decades of neglect. It's now going to be changed. The change is happening, even if you don't want to admit/see it. When do you expect medical insurance to start getting cheaper? Will I still be alive? Will you? Hint: Mr. Reagan and James Watt started the agency. No body was "regulating" the industry before or after (unfortunately). I'm not going to quote the CBO again, since you'll just say you don't believe them. I thought you said it was free anyway. |

I thought it was GW's fault. Are you saying Clinton deregulated drilling? I guess I am confused. I didn't mention Clinton, but he didn't fix the problem either. So, he would be complicit on some level. Bush made things worse for sure. |
