Salazar lying on CNN right now - House Hearing Live Link

I just turned it on and he was trying to minimize the size of the spill by comparing it to others....

It might have already surpassed the second largest spill in history, and this is the tripe he spews in front of Congress. Link to previous spill sizes here:

Disgusting. Just disgusting.

Be warned. Listening to some of these stupid pandering comments and nonsensical stutterings in the face of this monumental disaster is excruciating.

1. Accusing somebody of lying to Congress is a serious charge
I assume you have incontrovertible evidence that Secretary Salazar is committing the felony you accuse him of.

8. In other words, you're bloviating
It's not as big as Ixtoc 1, no matter how much you wish it was.

16. Even under the highest estimates
it won't reach the levels of Ixtoc 1 for another six weeks.

10. Why anyone would unrecommend this post is beyond me

Salazar is BP's front man and general.

12. Because you have an odd little way of expressing yourself, and
your opinion doesn't make it so? Just guessing... :eyes:

13. Because you just posted an over the top accusation without a shred of proof...
...against a Democrat in a Democrat's cabinet on Democratic Underground.

That is why.

19. You accused an administration official
of lying with no proof other than "his lips are moving". Either put up the proof or consider you may be more at home with the small dicked freepers.

9. What are you Talking About?
I'm watching, I'm not seeing any lies, not a one.

If you're going to call a cabinet member a liar, you really ought to provide some specific examples.

:shrug:

15. Omg. This place is surreal. He said that the spill was small in relation to other spills

Yet, it has or will in the next two weeks surpass the second largest spill in history.

There you go.

LIE.

Distort.

Minimize.

Gross.

20. Where is your proof for that?
2nd largest spill? Where? According to whom? You see, Democrats require proof, it's the repubs that will believe any moronic thing they read on the internet.

22. "Indeed, if we assume the highest independently measured..."
It doesn't matter, it's not a contest, this is a big fucking mess by any measure.

I'm trying without success to see a posting what you think about Salazar without an actual quote, just your opinion after he said what you think he said at a point where it's too late for us to see or read what was said, in context...

...I fail to see how this helps, even a little bit.

At least that's what I think I heard. :shrug:

21. In his defense, that's what his Kitteh Overlord told him to do.
But then he did say we have to surrender to the forthcoming alien invasion. That was troubling.
