Stop criticizing cuz ur dumb John Kerry says you have a comprehension problem. He has done sssssssssooooooooo much on our behalf, and we are just too dumb to understand it.
Ron Gourget, a former federal oil-spill-response coordinator and one author of the draft, told the Times of London: “The whole reason the plan was created was so that we could pull the trigger right away.” The idea was to use barriers called “fire booms” to collect and contain the spill at sea — then burn it off. He believes this could have captured 95 percent of the oil from this spill.
But at the time of the Deepwater Horizon explosion, the federal government didn’t have a single fire boom on hand. Nor is there any evidence that the government required BP to have any clear plan to deal with a massive spill. How is this OK?
The administration’s chief response so far was to send out Interior Secretary Ken Salazar to do his best impersonation of a totalitarian thug, proclaiming that the government would “have its boot on the throat of BP.”
(Fun fact: While in the Senate, Salazar backed an increase in oil and gas leases in the Gulf Coast region by promoting and voting for the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006.)
He blew it. Obama faces a meltdown akin to the unraveling of his predecessor, George W. Bush. A press conference and a visit to the region are simply too little too late. It doesn’t matter whether government could do any better than the oil companies. The political fallout has taken hold. Obama failed to manage a massive crisis. There’s no fixing this failure. His only hope now is changing the subject. Good Luck.
Yes, he can only hope that the subject will not be Sestak.
Arizona’s own legislators are conspiring with Mexico and the International Court to force Arizona’s hand? Are these clowns serious? Who do they owe allegiance to? I see a HUGE problem with jackasses.
Here’s the full list of conspirators from both sides of the border:
The conclave was attended by U.S. lawmakers: Amanda Aguirre, Linda Brown, Linda Lopez, Manuel “Manny” Alvarez, Manny Ruiz, Martin Porchas, Rick Flores and Rudy Molera.
I don’t really care about who is on Team Mexico, do you?
It looks to me like this action may have violated the oath of office required of all elected officials in AZ.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the State of Arizona, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same and defend them against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge the duties of the office of ______________ according to the best of my ability, so help me God (or so I do affirm).
These cretins love Mexico so much, I say let the National Guard escort them directly into the hands of the cartels. Hasta la vista payasos.
Regarding the Administration’s decision to send 1,200 National Guard servicemen to the US Southern border, the Government of Mexico trusts that this decision will help to channel additional US resources to enhance efforts to prevent the illegal flows of weapons and bulk cash into Mexico, which provide organized crime with its firepower and its ability to corrupt.
Additionally, the Government of Mexico expects that National Guard personnel will strengthen US operations in the fight against transnational organized crime that operates on both sides of our common border and that it will not, in accordance to its legal obligations, conduct activities directly linked to the enforcement of immigration laws.
Mexico is determined to continue working on its side of the border to enhance the security and well-being of border communities, and to deter and dismantle organized crime and its links to drug trafficking and human smuggling.
Since when Felipe?
As part of our joint strategy in the fight against transnational organized crime, there are actions that our two governments have undertaken together, and there are other measures taken independently by Mexico and by the US within their respective territories. In this regard, the Mexican Government fully respects the sovereign decisions of the US Government, but underscores that joint responsibility must continue to underpin our joint efforts in rolling-back transnational organized crime operating on both sides of the border.
Why is this Raymond Adamcik M.D., practicing anything other than macrame at the local loon hotel? He’s an internal medicine physician who also specializes in non-surgical cosmetic procedures, and takes care of elderly folks in homes. What a guy! His pics at the police station tell his story.
He gropes a woman while dressed in a spandex Captain America costume with a burrito firmly entrenched in his pants. His site states,
“quality medicine with a personal touch.”
Geez, we really didn’t have to learn where he had stashed his lunch. No jail time.
