BP Caps Leaking Oil Well


BP oil well is capped

BP has announced they've capped the leaking oil well in the Gulf of Mexico, which has polluted the beaches and coast off Louisiana in America. The well has been spewing oil into the ocean for months, in the worst spill in U.S. history.

Barack Obama

This will be welcome news to U.S. President Barack Obama, who has been roundly criticized in America, for not doing enough to address the crisis that spiraled out of control, damaging the environment and economy.

When Community College Goes Wrong

My godbrother goes to an esteemed Florida university and plays on the football team. Recently, a student from a neighboring community college (university) explained what happened when a professor finished speaking and opened a discussion up to debate.

The topic of the debate was the BP oil crisis and a black student, tired of Obama being bashed by the professor, stated of the President, "What do you want the ni**a to do, put on snorkels, go into the sea and plug the bi**h himself!" Oh dear. Do remember that the next time you decide to cut educational funding (grants to community colleges).

Obama Slammed For Leisure Activities During Spill

President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama is being slammed for going golfing, while the unprecedented BP spill continues to spew millions of gallons of oil into the ocean, destroying the environment and businesses in Louisiana.

A few months ago, papers noted Obama has taken more vacation time than any other President in U.S. history, just a year and a half into his troubled and turbulent presidency.

Why Is Obama Shielding Halliburton

Have They Promised Him Something

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama, has been shielding Halliburton from public ridicule and responsibility in the Louisiana oil spill, shifting all the blame to BP, who contracted the former to drill and maintain a now broken well, in conjunction with Transocean, 5,000 feet below sea level.

Halliburton is filthy rich, with billions in cash and assets. The company earns $12 billion annually. The war in Iraq was fought for companies such as Halliburton, to gain a monopoly on Iraq oil.

Not only did they commandeer Iraqi oil, they were given billions in U.S. taxpayer money to rebuild Iraq, a country that should not have been blown up in the first place.

BP CEO, Tony Hayward, in the U.S. Congress

However, due to former Vice President Dick Cheney's greed, as a one-time employee of the company, who maintains lucrative financial ties to Halliburton, this madness took place, in collusion with George W. Bush, as the American people were lied to and duped. Bush admitted in an interview he thought "the oil would pay for the war" which is appalling.

Once again, in a terrible, unprecedented crisis that has damaged America, the name Halliburton has surfaced. People need to ask questions why. America has many great companies, but Halliburton has inflicted more damage on this nation than any in recent memory.

BP was forced into shelling out $20 billion dollars in a trust fund this week, regarding damage in Louisiana, when Halliburton is a major culprit in this environmental crisis, yet has gotten away relatively Scot free, as Obama tries to dismantle a foreign company, much to the offense of Britain, that outsourced work to America, an ally. Halliburton should have been made to pay as well.

Cleaning Oil Soiled Sand


A great company called Clean Beach Technologies, run by Tony Watson (CEO) and Gary Stevenson (President), is utilizing a clever way to address the Louisiana oil spill that occurred in the Gulf Of Mexico.

The company uses trucks, massive containers and biodegradable materials to clean the oil soiled sand, then returning it to the beach after 12 hours. They have labeled the process a "reclamation of the beach."

Obama To Meet With BP

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama is slated to meet with BP for the first time this week, in reference to the oil spill that occurred in the waters off the state of Louisiana in America. The President has been slammed in the press for his handling of the crisis, with many demanding he do more.

The Judiciary Report is of the belief, all involved should be held accountable, as that is the nature of liability law. BP is shouldering all the blame for work they outsourced to Halliburton and Transocean, who have been silent during this environmental disaster, is not just.

Both companies are quite wealthy and should pay their fair share in damages as well, as they oversaw the drilling and implementation of the well that has sprung an unprecedented leak, polluting the ocean.

WRAPUP 1-Obama leadership on BP spill faces testing week

Mon Jun 14, 2010 12:31am EDT - WASHINGTON/LONDON, June 14 (Reuters) - Barack Obama's leadership of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill faces key tests this week as the U.S. president gives his first national address on the disaster and meets top BP (BP.L) (BP.N) executives for the first time...

Obama Slammed In The British Press Over BP

President Barack Obama pointing the finger at BP

U.S. President Barack Obama is being slammed in the British press over his treatment of their company BP (British Petroleum). The unprecedented oil spill that occurred off the coast of the U.S. state of Louisiana, has polluted the Gulf Of Mexico, with spewing oil.

The British press contends, the Obama Administration is being nasty to BP, threatening its executives and trying to block dividends from being paid, when it was primarily the American company, Halliburton, that caused the spill, via the rig they operated on BP's behalf in America.

BP stated they outsourced the work to Halliburton and Transocean, who used their own "procedures" "employees" and "equipment." Thus far, BP has paid $1.5 billion in clean up costs and claims, but feels it is being unfairly targeted over what was Halliburton's fault.

It is the Judiciary Report's position that Halliburton and Transocean should be required to pay for clean up costs and claims as well, as their negligence contributed to the unprecedented environmental disaster.

Side Bar: Even before the time of the oil spill, when the Judiciary Report had not even written a word about them yet, the site would receive visits from Halliburton, as attested by website statistics. What could cause them to visit the site. Hmm, could it be my wit, charm, my refusal to use proper punctuation and correct capitalization. The possibilities are endless.

Obama Blames BP For Everything

U.S. President Barack Obama

With his approval ratings in decline and people labeling the BP oil spill his Hurricane Katrina fiasco, U.S. President Barack Obama is blaming BP for everything.

There is also concerns about anti-British sentiments over the issue. At the end of the day, BP, a British company, contracted an American company, Halliburton, in addition to Transocean, to dig and operate the oil well that ruptured with the rig exploding, resulting in the worst spill in U.S. history.

BP CEO, Tony Hayward

Blaming any nation is counter-productive and not going to solve the problem. It is a regrettable tragedy, but the focus needs to be on getting a tourniquet on the broken well, containing the spill and vacuuming up the oil floating in the sea before it spreads any further.

Obama Curses On TV Over BP

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama, who was clearly offended this morning, cursed on the NBC "Today Show" regarding people slamming his response to the BP oil spill, as inadequate and worst than the government's poor reaction to 2005's Hurricane Katrina, in the same region.

The President bitterly complained he was in Louisiana in the rain a month ago, speaking with fishermen about the potential the spill possessed of being a terrible crisis.

Barack Obama: don't make me get ghetto!

As he grew more angry Obama stated, "I don't just sit around talking to experts because this is a college seminar. We talked to these folks, because they potentially had the best answers, so I'd know whose as* to kick."

Obama also slammed BP's CEO for stating "I want my life back." The President stated, "(Tony) Hayward wouldn't be working for me after making such a comment."

Britney Spears Still Can't Get It Together

Another bad Britney weave

Millions of dollars are being spent on Britney Spears' upkeep, yet she still remains the least groomed person in Hollywood, continuing to trot around in stained, ill-fitting clothes, topped off with terrible, atrocious weaves.

Women all over the nation go to reasonably priced salons, paying a basic $50 to get their hair done, come out looking great and a million times better than Spears, who has a higher styling budget.

Britney continues to wander around looking like the poster child for bad weaving and weird hair coloring. The hair on the birds being sprayed with BP oil in her native Louisiana, look better than Britney's tresses.

Oil Spill To Continue Until Christmas

Merry Christmas from BP, Transocean and Halliburton! Reports indicate the oil spill off the coast of Louisiana in America, may run until Christmas. Yes, that's right, Christmas.

The environmental and economical fall out from this leak seems to grow worse by the day. Not enough is being done to address the damage and it is distressing to many. Everything that can be done is not being done.

All that beautiful ocean and wildlife being destroyed is sad. BP and co are essentially fighting against the force of the earth, buried deep below the surface. More studies should have been done, before such a risky endeavor was undertaken, at such depths of the sea.

Louisiana Oil Spill To Flow For Months


Louisiana oil spill gushing from the bottom of the ocean

The BP/Halliburton/Transocean oil spill is expected to flow for the next few months, until relief wells are implemented. August 2010 is the month being bantered around regarding containment of the largest oil spill in U.S. history.

There have been many attempts at plugging the leak, but none have been successful thus far, leaving many Americans frustrated and upset. It really is sad to see all that oil polluting the ocean and the debris and golf ball solution only created more troublesome waste in the environment.

U.S. President Barack Obama was criticized on CNN by Presidential Historian, Douglas Brinkley, for not spending more time in Louisiana, during a scheduled visit, to inspect the largest oil spill in U.S. history.

Dude, President Obama doesn't want to inhale those fumes, pardon the pun. Obama's interests never laid in those types of fumes.

BP Unsuccessful In Plugging Oil Spill

BP used a "top kill" solution of mud and golf balls, among other things, in an attempt to plug a massive oil spill in Louisiana, emanating from 5,000 feet beneath the sea.

However, BP put more golf balls in the water than U.S. President Obama on vacation, in trying to stop the terrible spill, but to no success thus far, as the black gold continues to waste in the Gulf of Mexico.

U.S. President Obama visited Louisiana spill site this week

For years, people have drilled for oil in Louisiana, but this is the first time they attempted to do so this far beneath the sea and it has proven disastrous.

Obama Battered By The Press At The White House

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama faced an onslaught of heavy criticism today from journalists, during a formal press conference held at the White House, in Washington, D.C.

The press contingent hammered the President on a number of topics, such as his administration's weak response to the oil spill in Louisiana, comparing it to the Hurricane Katrina fiasco.

It has been revealed, more oil is spilling into the ocean, than originally estimated, creating massive pollution that could reach Western Europe. The press slammed Obama for ignoring help from 15 of the 17 nations that offered assistance, not "vacuuming" the area using ships to soak up excess oil, as well as disregarding the ideas of a local Louisiana politician, who seeks the construction of a barrier island to mitigate the damage from the spill.

Democratic Congressman Sestak was also mentioned, as a politician that was allegedly given some form of incentive not to run, during a congressional race for public office. The subject of the U.S./Mexico border was also discussed, as a number of troops have been deployed to the area.

It was by far, President Barack Obama's worst press conference. At times he seemed lost, while in other moments he appeared disheartened and embarrassed. The questions were hard hitting, but a number of issues have been inadequately addressed by his administration and the press seized on the opportunity to get some answers. Needless to say, the gloves came off.

Obama White House Briefing On Oil Spill

U.S. President Barack Obama

During a press conference held today in Washington, D.C., U.S. President Barack Obama's White House briefed the world on the oil spill in Louisiana, which happened under the watch of BP, Halliburton and Transocean.

Government advisors acting in the capacity of oversight, spoke of what they intend to do to address the problem. A relief well is being assembled by the oil companies, in a bid to skim some of the thousands of gallons of oil per day, gushing from beneath the ocean, thereby diverting it into containment units, such as ships. It's amazing to think a trillion dollars in oil is floating in the Gulf of Mexico.
