US accepts international assistance for Gulf spill.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States is accepting help from 12 countries and international organizations in dealing with the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
The State Department said in a statement Tuesday that the U.S. is working out the particulars of the help that’s been accepted.
The identities of all 12 countries and international organizations were not immediately announced. One country was cited in the State Department statement — Japan, which is providing two high-speed skimmers and fire containment boom.
More than 30 countries and international organizations have offered to help with the spill. The State Department hasn’t indicated why some offers have been accepted and others have not.
Incredible outrage erstwhile POTUS pretends to be taking care of business. While VPOTUS is at taking care of business photo ops, here is a nice list of what to do to take care of the spill. The best place for up to the minute information on what is happening in Louisiana is here.

Obama knows he’s in big political trouble. Did you see that he sent Biden down to the Gulf for a photo-op and some publicity? What a joke.
June 30, 2010 at 9:42 am
He is a joke Nunly. Who can take this man seriously? Biden is a clown. Sending a clown to speak to people about this destruction is beyond a joke, it is cruel.
June 30, 2010 at 11:17 am
And Obama is just the sun-bed tanning identical twin of VP Bite-me!
June 30, 2010 at 11:16 am
What did VP Bit-me do there?
Eat Ice Cream????
“I scream.
You scream.
We all scream,
for our Gulf back!”

Great photoshop!
June 30, 2010 at 11:11 am
Perfect, I would say. lol

Has anybody noticed how little coverage even Fox gives the spill? I think the WH put the word out to downplay what is going on there.
June 30, 2010 at 12:05 pm
It’s an WH/msm trigger…distract with other stuff as much as possible.

at least anderson cooper is covering it at night on cnn. It is unlike the stupid loops they played when covering the haiti earthquake. Last night anderson said he has been down there for 6 weeks.
June 30, 2010 at 8:56 pm
Thank God someone is. Let’s hope that they do not run loops of what they are seeing.

It would be nice to see the leaders of this country, actually lead, instead of worrying about how they are being perceived in the polls. Then again, they don’t seem to be concerned about that either now that I think about it.
Fire them all!
June 30, 2010 at 12:06 pm
Absolutely. Each and everyone of these rats should be tarred and feathered for what they have allowed to happen.
June 30, 2010 at 2:12 pm
“Fire them all!”
I don’t have a match big enough.
June 30, 2010 at 2:15 pm
Yes, but with a lot of matches, we can send them all away.
June 30, 2010 at 12:42 pm
See? He said he was thinking about the spew day and night.
June 30, 2010 at 12:46 pm
I thought that was Al Gore?
June 30, 2010 at 12:46 pm
Yes, that was bad.
June 30, 2010 at 12:54 pm
Ouch! Actually, Gore was thinking about, “” release of his second chakra there.” Whatta creep!
June 30, 2010 at 2:00 pm
Yes imust, I heard that. I can’t believe this turd would have the audacity to talk about the second chakra. What a jerk!

I see that it really is business as usual- turn it over to Hillary’s Dept- let her do the work- or try to make her take the blame- either one works for barfy- so long as he can golf and plan his Indonesia vacay.

That man is rotten to the core PMM. Unsalvagable.
June 30, 2010 at 2:16 pm
the “government” refused to accept aid to reduce the per barrel fines: foreign observers will account the leak as much bigger
the “government”BP has had the opportunity to dump a million (millions?) of gallons ofdispersantpoison now.June 30, 2010 at 3:57 pm
Fantastic, how efficient they are.
June 30, 2010 at 3:20 pm
obommie-come-lately strikes again….I am so sick of this ass clown!! There is NOTHING anyone can say to convince me he is not trying to destroy America. There is yet to be any evidence shown that he even remotely cares about the United States or it’s inhabitants.

FINALLY!!! Bill Clinton thoroughly kicked o-butt today. Let’s hope Clinton will not pick up the o-water bucket he’s been toting for two years.
June 30, 2010 at 8:58 pm
It’s so hard to know what is really rotten. Everyone is compromised when it comes to this POTUS and his administration of goons.

It was only a matter of time. Bet it won’t happen until after 2012 elections.

Great- just great- like I want some numbnuts out there getting in the way of the military.
