Isn't the Obama administration supposed to be in charge of sending out the checks from BP's $20B fund?

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
C'mon you guys. Its simple really. They haven't paid out any claims because they are too busy filming commercials about the claim processing centers and their "dedication" to the parties involved.  |

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
Have any of the mainstream media sources made mention of the other (larger) leaks? There happens to be a large fissure 5-7 miles from the wellhead pipe that we keep seeing on the TV via it's own webcam. The farthest leak is 20 miles from the wellhead. The large fissure is the real problem, only a couple people have any real idea what to do about it, and most of them don't have the power or materials needed. It seems to me that stopping a leaky pipe that's seven inches wide shouldn't be a real problem. On the low end, the estimates put the fissure at 125,000 barrels a day!

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
I have also heard about the possibility for a large methane bubble.

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
Is that fissure from the ground being porous or what?

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
The fissure is the result of the first gaseous bubble,the one that officially overwhelmed the rig. That bubble's volume being vacated very quickly let the seafloor collapse a bit (over a large area) and that "crust" was then torn apart by not having anything "holding it up". Does that make sense? I'm horrible at articulating anything useful in writing. I think I'm on the wrong side to be typing to much about this anyway.
This kind of leak has only happened once before, that I know of. That was in Russia, in the 1970s. Their answer was to deploy a nuclear weapon. It worked for them, and I heard that BP had been extending feelers though "back channels" to explore that option in the first week of June. I think it was abandoned a week or two later. I should explain the the Russian event differed in that it was; 1)on land 2)I believe it was without a "secondary" breech (the fissure) 3)a government controlled well, so it actually had to be taken care of, and was, in an effective manner. This kind of makes it sound like it's not really the same deal at all, but the logistics aren't too different. The Russian well was drilled to the same depth (slightly deeper even), which was into a 75,000psi+ abiotic oil field which overwhelmed all safety protocols.

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
There seems to be a pattern these days:
Obama Inc wants something
The majority says "no"
Then something happens soon after to reinforce Obama Inc's position
Then they force it down our throats on that basis

Re: Gulf Oil Spill--recap, blame, etc
And for this worldwide disaster that we can't find any evidence of anymore, the regime has fired 15,000 American workers when we have 17% unemployment. It must be Bush's fault.
