Stupak: BP "Doesn't Have a Real Plan" - THIS IS THE PROBLEM!
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20004871-503544.html

* When does the right authority take over the situation?? How much will we regret it when BP does something to make it much worse???????????????

article:

After two days of hearings on Capitol Hill, Rep. Bart Stupak's confidence in British Petroleum's ability to fix a massive underwater oil leak is waning.

"I don't think they have a real plan yet," Stupak, D-Mich. and member of the House subcommittee on Oversight, said.

Yesterday's hearings revealed a long list of mistakes that possibly led to the April 20 blowout of a well in the Gulf of Mexico, including: bad cement, loose pipes and a dead battery.

Citing an internal BP memo, Stupak told CBS' "The Early Show" that a "culture of incompetence" exists at the oil company.

"We have a serious problem, here," Stupak said.

1. Everyone is afraid of legal issues, or alienating their paymasters
We have to raise a ruckus.

Time is of the essence and BP cannot be trusted.

They'll play this out with dumb ideas hoping that the second pipe will work..

by then the Gulf will be destroyed.

They DO NOT CARE

They DO NOT CARE

They DO NOT CARE

They are OILMEN not ENVIRONMENTALISTS.
