Best viewed in full screen 1080p. Using satellites, scientists have been tracking the movement of BP’s Deep Water Horizon oil slick as currents have pushed it closer and closer to the Gulf Coast. Now, scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research have used supercomputers to simulate its path in coming months as it moves up the Atlantic seaboard in major ocean currents.

BP’s most recent containment plan for the Gulf of Mexico oil spill turned out to be a failure. With no immediate viable options remaining, the company has now thrown their hands up and is actually asking the public for their input on how to contain the leak. Meanwhile, oil continues to spew out of the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, threatening anyone who lives or makes a living on the Gulf Coast. Mike Papantonio appears on The Ed Show to tell us how BP might go bankrupt as a result of the scope of this disaster, causing those most affected by the oil spill to never receive compensation.

Listen to James Fox directly from Grand Isle, Lousiana. Media threatened with arrest for filming footage of the area and the plumes of oil. Disaster far worse than being reported previously. BP in total control of what is happeing in the disaster response. MARTIAL LAW MAY BE CALLED!! There is a MEDIA BLACKOUT. People are being ARRESTED. The media is not telling you the real story. Let’s keep James in our thoughts. www.veritasshow.com

Hi, this is Jay Herrod and I would like to talk about the oil rig explosion and massive oil leak off the coast of Louisiana. Roughly one week after President O Bama announced expanding off shore drilling of this country, the exploratory oil rig the Deepwater Horizon explodes, sinks, and causes a massive oil leak and spill that threatens the entire Gulf and East Coast. I found this mighty strange. Oil companies go out their way to make sure this doesnt happen. In talking with others who know about the off shore drilling business (remember, I am from Louisiana after all), they cant believe this happened at all. Now in my talks with people in Louisiana it came up that there are groups and organizations that oppose expanding off shore drilling and were doing everything in their power to stop it. It was also noted that fiberglass boats, whether this is true or not, I dont know, are not detectable by radar on off shore drilling rigs. That workers do not know when one is close by unless just happening to see one in day time. Now I dont know if Homeland Security has considered this or not but at night, could or could not a person or persons boarded the Deepwater Horizon, set explosives on the rig undetected or dressed as a oil field worker going unnoticed and left? There are lots of ways it could have been done. Lastly, then please consider this, our off shore drilling rigs are not as protected as in the Middle East. Am others and I wrong about this, you figure it out. THANK YOU Video Rating: 5 / 5
