3. Napolitano & Salazar reaffirming that BP is responsible
The Fed is fighting this with everything they have per Salazar and Napolitano. Will keep the boot heel on BP's neck.

Governor J. also spoke saying what they are doing and asking for more booms to fight the spill farther out from the marshes. The afflicted marshes could die in 7 days.

6. No questions yet, janx...
I know there's nothing funny about any of this. But Sen. Landrieu just misspoke. She said that BP must shut down the well "at the earliest convenience". She immediately corrected herself. But coming from her, I thought I'd pass it along.

Oddly enough, I thought Governor J. was quite forceful. Sure, he was covering his butt. But no matter, I will give him some props for what he said unless someone proves what he said to be incorrect. I'm not a fan of his but he did well, imo. He's asking for the land boom and they surely need it.

9. Chuck Todd now on with Andrea Mitchell
Nobody knows how much oil is really out there. Andrea saying that this is fueling the skepticism.

Mitchell now talking about how BP appears to be low-balling the numbers. Bob Deans, Nat. Resources Defense Council, speaking with her about how the locals still traumatized after Katrina and how they are losing faith in the fed gov't. Need to move to clean energy economy.

16. Do you have broadband?
If you do, don't tell anyone I told you this:

http://tvpc.com/ChannelList.php

If the first link doesn't work, try the second one. Sometimes it helps to have the Microsoft Silverlight plugin installed. Oh, and site prefers you browse using IE.

:hi:

8. Sen. Landrieu is concentrating on the claims process.
Edited on Mon May-24-10 12:12 PM by LeftyFingerPop
If you as a fisherman made $50k last year, BP will reimburse you $50k. If you made $1 million last year, BP will reimburse you $1 million.

She is working to eliminate the problem that occurred with Exxon 20 years ago, where people had to wait for years for any reimbursement

She wants the claims process to be very quick..

10. Napolitano & Salazar looked like bumpkins in the spotlight - not good sign of Obama's administration
Edited on Mon May-24-10 12:13 PM by tomm2thumbs

Keep saying 'BP is the Responsible Party' does nothing

12. This is in response to a Republican group that wants to limit BP's liability to the FIRST 5 DAYS!
Lead by that bioch from Alaska, the other one.

13. they continue to prove they are not 'doing everything humanly possible' which is unfortunate

Gibbs put his foot in the White House's mouth by saying they were doing everything they could, because obviously they are not

bad form

14. WTF!!! Why is Jindal the only one sounding competent??!
What utter BS!!

Why the FRAK is Obama letting wingnuts and Faux set the motherfrakking discussion?!?

The Cabinet Secretaries came off as politburo apparatchiks! "We're mad, we're upset too, we're doing everything we can, bad BP, they're going to pay, we're on top of this -just trust us"!!!!! Why the hell, after Salazar read "HIS REMARKS", did he say "now let me add my own"?? And does he think he's being butch nasally dropping "boots on their necks" every other sentence? Sh##!! Clearly Napolitano's tired, but shouldn't she at least have had a speech written for her, rather than wing it?? That Conference left the same frakking taste as Dukakis answering the Rape Question!! (It also just guaranteed Jindal's reelection! And exactly WHY hasn't the White House requested a Corps answer about building sand barriers?)

Obama campaigned masterfully, but his administration is utterly frakking hopeless at handling, responding, or foreseeing common sense appearances obvious even to jr high debaters, much less controlling the Godda##ed discussion.

THIS is Obama's political response to that inbred, cornpone, snowbilly, grifter bint accusing him of deliberately frakking the pooch? Accusations that Obama is protecting BP instead of good old, lifelong, redneck Southern Republican Shrimpboat Driving Welfare Queens??

Frak! After rightfully fighting back the slanderous rightwing Fox Teabagger "Obama's Katrina" charge, why has the Obama administration largely spent the last 3 weeks apparently trying to GODDA###D PROVE IT by repeatedly being a day late and dollar short?? By coming off as ineffectual and out-of-touch as Bush. What the Christ is NEXT -a sweater speech?? Thank GOD it wasn't a frakking rabbit that ran in front of Obama's podium!!

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIS POLITICAL MESSAGING?!? Like Al Qaeda, Fox and the Rightwing Hate Machine continually try to harm America and the Democrats. They only have to succeed once! Why is the Obama administration making it EASY for them?

GODDA## it!! ANOTHER generational perfect storm completely demonstrating the total uselessness, riskiness, and harmfulness of the last 30 years of Rightwing GOP freemarket, deregulatory idiocy -a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show WHY government is necessary and HOW it can directly benefit and protect is daily being pissed away with great zeal!

WTF!!!
