Peter Roskam Stands Up Against Big Oil

[PatriotWatchUSA]

Peter living in your district I hold you personally responsible for Obama. You refuse to qualify and vet him for the HIGHEST office on the PLANET. YOU ARE A COWARD MY FRIEND

[PatriotWatchUSA]

Peter I live in your district. I have written SEVERAL times in reference to Obamas Birth Certificate and you have REFUSED to answer me. You are a coward and I burned my gas for you putting signs up. ALOT of signs brother. I didnt have the money but thought you were important.

You are a coward. Obama has submitted his second FAKE birth record. All you have to do is ask someone in the know and they would tell you it is fake. Why don't DEMAND his paper work so MY COUNTRY CAN HEAL?

@ILLINOISLOYALTY1 Well than tell his kid to ask his cowardly Father to DEMAND Obama birth record so my country could heal.

It makes me sick that anybody would even consider dumping into the great lakes, how messed up! How could you sleep at night knowing that you let it happen . Please keep these lakes clean! Thanks congressman peter Roskam for being against it!

BP Increases Toxic Sludge Dumping into Lake Michigan

BP will now be allowed to dump an average of 1,584 pounds of ammonia and 4,925 pounds of sludge mixed with 21 million gallons of contaminated wastewater into Lake Michigan EVERY DAY. An immediate boycott of BP is necessary.

[stopbp]

Do the math:

1584 pounds of ammonia per day multiplied by 365 days equals 578,160 pounds per year, and 5,781,600lbs in the next decade.

4925 pounds of toxic sludge multiplied by 365 days equals 1,797,625 pounds per year, or 17,976,250 pounds over the next 10 years.

At 21 million gallons of contamintated water per day, they will pollute 76,650,000,000 gallons of fresh water in the next ten years.

In the United States, BP markets their products and services under five name brands so if you don't agree with what they are doing, don't give them any of your money!

1. BP

2. Amoco

3. ARCO

4. am/pm

5. Castrol

I believe the proposal to allow increased dumping of ammonia and toxic sludge into Lake Michigan from British Petroleum's oil refinery in Whiting, Indiana is unconscionable. Certainly a company that claims to be "Beyond Petroleum" can also be beyond polluting our waters.

Please halt progress on this proposal now and find a way to deal with the waste this plant produces other than dumping more of it into Lake Michigan.
