This is historic for all the wrong reasons. The map showing the oil mess is shocking and it moves with the winds and tide so who knows where the storms and mother nature will take this. I'm with you on this cause I don't see how this cannot be handled better. I'm thinking that if they would have attacked the problem with a stronger sense of an emergency to begin with we would have had a solution by now.

The thing stinks of a cover up in the beginning days with BP officials and our Gubment standing by and watching eachother on t.v.....seemed like noone would step up and take this problem by the horns. I'm just a tax paying man living in Lexington Kentucky watching the news and it seemed pretty **** important to me back when the accident happened. Why is it that BP looked so passive in the beginning? Why is it that the gubment was so willing to hide behind laws when they seldom do otherwise? This thing stunk bad from the start and everyone hoped the other guy would fix it or take the blame. Now here we are 45 days later and it's gonna take them all down now!

If these specialist and engineers took any time off since this started then they need to be dealt with...same goes for any of our gubment morons.
