These clowns (BP) were obviously in WAY over their heads here, Princess.

And I hope they get taken to the CLEANERS big time.

This is an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE that could end up making Katrina look like your baby's playpen…

BP, the oil industry and their political lackies: "government is an obstacle. the drilling is safe and modern technology can avert disaster, drill baby drill!" the reality: "we can't fix this problem.............government do something........please help us fix something we don't have a clue about, we are even calling in the shrimpers and clam people to help." can you say the word......SUCKERS........because thats what we have become. "oh mother nature can take care of this" really? in how many years. i suppose all these jackasses that are claiming this are taking their families to the beach this summer....lol...lol

You really can't make this crap up. BP should be on the hook for every penny, but Republicans are keeping in tact the $75 million liability cap. $75 million is a drop in the bucket for these morons.

It will be a crime of monumental proportions if BP pays only 75mil!

They have to pay for all of the environmental clean up. The 75 mil cap is for paying businesses who lost their business because of the spill.

but either way, yeah, its a crime if tax payers have to even pay a dime for these people's errors.

i get this. it's not a completely unreasonable reaction.

i just wish people looked at their own responsibility rather than just blame either bp or the government. we live on cheap oil.

let he who is without a car cast the first stone.

LOL. The difference is that I don't give much of a rat's azz about you, whereas you feel compelled to constantly and repeatedly come out of the woodwork and use your insulting words in an attempt to make yourself look important. Or cool. Or scary. Or relentlessly idiotic

You're about as narcissistic and delusional as Robin Ophelia Quivers. Were you a former fatty who lost weight, perchance?

You don't care yet keep replying and provoking.

You seem to think that your years of being a foul-mouthed bully on this board buys you a free pass to abuse others at your whim.

Sorry, little man. You're wrong.

Look, dope, this company was woefully unprepared to deal with a disaster like this.

Hell, these amateurs apparently had to start using local fisherman when they finally realized that things were spinning out of control.

There is no room for error in that business … as even your dumb ass can clearly see now…

you both are correct. You are correct in the fact that these type of companies really need to be better prepared. Their "fail safe" measures werent exactly fail safe. It sucks that this happened. But coach is correct cause its us, the consumers, who will be screwed in the end because of this whole mess.

Update - BP says they'll clean up the mess, but they're not at fault.
