Obama Should Waive Federal Regulations To Help With Oil Cleanup

[Motive11331]

I live in northern Illinois, so a vote for Ron Paul is basically lost. Obama is almost guaranteed another four years as far as my state is concerned. Still, I am voting for Ron Paul, and am determined to do every damned thing I can to convince everyone I know to do the same. Obama is nothing but an eloquent, black version of Bush. They're liars and thugs. Ron Paul is the only one that has a plan to enact common sense, peace-oriented policies, and the experience to back them up.

[ALEXFVHS]

i only recently discovered about ron paul and il be voting for him in june for california primary. but for those who have supported him for a long time, how strong has he gotten bassed on peoples support and votes compare to when he was running for president in 2007?

[brianrhg]

@ALEXFVHS I followed his campaign four years ago and he's gathered a lot more support this time around. He's had respectable finishes excluding South Carolina. A lot has changed in four years and people are more willing to listen to him. I don't think he has much of a shot of winning but a vote for him is a noble thing to do. He's spread ideas.

[TheMinaLoi]

go register to vote NOW.

[Koi880]

ron paul is a bold face lair, he voted in favor of the iraq invasion!!

[killzone321]

@Koi880

Nothing compared to the rest of the GO-Nazi and Democunts.

And FYI he voted for the Afghanistan war to get osama bin laden and leave and HE DID NOT vote for the Iraq war because Osama wasn't there and we had no reason to be there.

[slimeyballs39]

i'm only 16, but if this guy doesn't win, i'm voting for him in 2015.

[bizqueezy]

@slimeyballs39 2016

[StayClutch1]

we need Ron Paul for 2012 please save america we are suffering.

[Lorenachan67]

VOTE FOR RON PAUL 2012

[RJWooller]

I don't like Paul. He makes politics smaller and I like politics.

[MegaPanzers1]

@RJWooller Don't like Ron Paul? i don't like you

you Like politics!? ok that's it, you're just stupid

[RJWooller]

@MegaPanzers1 I'll give you a bit of advice, don't insult people and you'll get more friends, followers and fans.

[MegaPanzers1]

@RJWooller dude i got lots of friends, good friends, and am pritty fun to hang out with; if you are watching my videos, they're terribly old; i was a stupid kid in them; and by the way im just sayin' that you cannot like politics, it's a place of corruption, infamy, falsity, it feigns leadership while all it's got usually is morons who are incapable to rule! history has probably known 4 really good presidents in the USA; and recent history has none!

[tigeroll]

Obama should open up drilling in the Gulf. He has done 1000 times the damage to our country the oil spill caused.

[missrockz]

Our politicians have showed us time and time again that they are in fact very criminal. Too much special interest in positions of power. Too many back door deals. Yes Sheeple keep drinking the Cool-Aid

Gold just like Paper Money is a Jew Banker Scam, You can't eat Gold. Invest in good soil to grow your own food, a well for non-poisoned water, chickens and pigs for meat, and learn a skill or trade to provide for your family. America is purposefully being DESTROYED by Jew Bankers and all JEWS support their agenda. Prepare or Die, its not rocket science.

[1stardancer]

Why DON"T they drop the freakin' regulations and allow other countries to help us? I just heard that there were some that are offering their expertise but, oh no, we can't let them. Plus James Cameron and Kevin Costner were turned down. They need all the help they can get. It's just bullshit.

What really upsets me is seeing all these birds and other wildlife coated with oil. Poor creatures continue to suffer because of all the fucking regulations. (Sorry, I'm an animal lover.)

[mongoose704]

@1stardancer The problem is knowing what regulations exist. Currently there are 222 volumes containing 160,000 pages of federal regulations. That's a lot to sort through to find out what regulations pertain to this disaster.

[sharinganclan213]

do you guys think this was a way for BP to make more money? i mean, now every time a politicians says something about offshore drilling, they are going to point teh fingers to this inident. Too abd prices won't go down. O well.

[Wolffanator]

It's not that Obama is suppose to know everything about oil leaks. Everyone keeps making this thing way too much about Obama, that's for sure. If Ron Paul thinks the oil company isn't going to try to get out of paying everything it owes with out some authority coming down on them, telling them exactly what they have to do (the Government) he's as dumb as the communists were. Were talking about a liability in the billions here, they aren't going to do the right thing. Gimme a break.

[mbhopp]

Ron Paul is the best!! So honest, so smart and so right on.

[LastReplaySC]

that "leak" and the offshore drilling is the proof of "PEAK OIL".

easy accessable oil is history, and this will happen mor ofter the deeper and the more risks are gonna be taken.

BP will proft in the long run either way, so all is OK, go back to sleep and drive more miles for BP profits!

Things will only get worse if any Govt gets involved, they would only nuke the leak and tax us for the fall-out!

[Michaelllllllllll]

@justonemorename Is this local? Can I do it over the net?

[lilhotboy247]

Don Imus... A walking... Talking... Zombie! Incredible this guy has listeners LoL... 

[CouldBawake]

well BPs latest attempt was another Fail.....after they cut the pipe it increased by 20%..They capped it to only slow the leak by 5%...A 15% increase...Search for

"Ixtoc I oil spill" it happend in 1979 too...

[LibertaerUeberAlles]

I wonder if that pipe could be stuffed-full with central bankers. Wouldn't that stop the leak?

[CouldBawake]

@LibertaerUeberAlles lol throw in a couple BP Executives too then Probably.

[ROBdeLIS]

@CouldBawake You sound like Barack Obama.

[CouldBawake]

@ROBdeLIS The feds are on there way to your home as we speak lol

[XRedxEyedxWandererX]

@LibertaerUeberAlles or at the very least shave them all and use the hair to plug up the leak??

[alexis2kool]

@LibertaerUeberAlles Oh no we can't do that we "NEEEEEEED" them too much! Our country would CRUMBLE without the "guide and help" of the bankers.

[apballard]

"I'm a man of non-violence"

[9921yourwong]

ron paul is rational.

[ImQuickGinger]

Let us not forget that the U.S Coast guard Admiral (rear) is guilty of helping BP attempt to cover up the leak. This cunt, along with everyone else involved, should be tried and hung in a public arena. We are sick and fucking tired of your constant lies! Redeem yourselves and start telling the truth for a change! Another cunt that disappeared from public scrutiny in the bitch from MMS...why is that cunts head not on a plate yet?

[merekee]

what's with the laugher?

[john5246]

The problems we have today are TECHNICAL, they require a high understanding of science and technology. The politician's are POWERLESS in this situation. All they know about is law.

Politician's are useless, they can't solve any problems by decree, what is obama going to do? Write on a piece of paper that it is illegal for oil to leak out of well? I suppose the well fearing the president will just stop?

POLITICIAN'S CAN'T SOLVE PROBLEMS! End of story.

[Shohadaku]

To plug the leak, just take all the heads of BP and stuff them into the oil pipe.

[merovingian909]

Ron Paul speaking the truth once again!

[VMATT500C]

Ron your backpedaling. Wake UP.

[Stepper11]

Once again, Ron Paul exemplifies sobriety, reason, fairness, and integrity. What the hell is he doing in politics.

[JoeTravel]

@Stepper11 I voted to put him there

[Stepper11]

@JoeTravel I'm glad you did. If only we had 535 more of him.

[catholicforever]

@Stepper11 lol

[xZer0nex]

@catholicforever ^ Heh, I don't think the pipe is big enough. ;)

[failblorg]

@Stepper11 my point exactly. politics should be a stage for the corrupt. and ONLY the corrupt. i mean what could possibly go wrong :)

[raughn3]

BP should go bankrupt after this disaster. they should pay all the fisherman, businesses, hotels and state agencies that have lost millions of dollars.

Ron Paul should elaborate more on this issue, he is very vague on his position and what he would do to solve this problem.

[ImQuickGinger]

@raughn3 Are you deaf or just fucking retarded? Ron Paul just got done saying he doesn't have any idea how to fix an oil leak. Wake up you fucking retard, not even the executives at BP know how to fix a leak. Ironically, they don't even know how to drill a well to begin with. You are a prime example of just how retarded the general population is.

[raughn3]

@ImQuickGinger First of all you don't fucking know me and you should stop acting tough.Because if you did know me, then you know that I'm an independent who hates both parties, hates the new world order, the drug war, and the two wars oversees. I like Ron Paul but I don't like Obama and consider myself a left liberation. And as voter I educate myself on politicians who could possibly run in 2012. I'm not a stupid sheeple and next time you comment, use better words because you sound like a fagot.

[ImQuickGinger]

@raughn3 No dumb fuck, you are a retard. "Ummm, yeah ahhhhh, I totally believe in the 2012" you are a fucking sheep.

[raughn3]

@ImQuickGinger see I'm done talking to internet thugs like you. Fuck your life! Imma see you fag!

[ImQuickGinger]

@raughn3 see ya! One less idiot is the way I look at it.

[W33Dblazer]

oil prices could rise due to this, i think the bilderbegers planned this. they say they wanna jack the oil prices bak up so maybe this will contribute to that

[john5246]

@W33Dblazer

exactly the bilderbegers sent suicidal dolphins to tear up the pipe

stop watching alex jones, wake up! Think for yourself for a god damn change

[W33Dblazer]

@john5246 maybe you should stop watching glenn beck and think for youself for a god damn fucking change rofl you clearly dont know where this is going, leave it to a dumbass on youtube to come outta no where with some fucking dolphin reply

[Hivento]

i dont see why obama just doesnt make use of the 1990 Oil Pollution Act, it was made specifically for this reason, 1 Billion of funds per spill and use the OPLANS, unless i missed something and he did use this?

[ImQuickGinger]

@Hivento There isn't 1 billion in funds for this...your spend happy government saw to that.

[Hivento]

@ImQuickGinger yeah thats what i see it as, something i would think fox news would cover to blame the gov't once again

[mx3g02]

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeere comes cap and trade

[Michaelllllllllll]

@mx3g02 We must fight with non compliance.

[mx3g02]

@Michaelllllllllll if thats what it takes to be free, im in.

[Michaelllllllllll]

@mx3g02 Most would say it is irresponsible of you to just give your truck payment up and it is foolish to simplify your life and no longer commit to the institutional idea of bills and payments for property taxes. I am a single man. So there are certain things I can do that allow me to fight the system. I did it for a year and did not have any direct income. Again this sounds absurd to some. We all have to do what we have to do in order to win this fight. It takes everyone doing something.

[nordbergsongs]

@Michaelllllllllll Good job...  I'm with you.

[LastReplaySC]

@Michaelllllllllll well said, I'm on the same trip now for 25 years,

and with every year I can see their systems failing and canibalizing its people

A shit load of people are gonna wake up too late! But honestly, they deserve everthing they applied voted and begged for!

[ArmitageX]

Obama isn't done exploiting this to push his Cap-And-Trade and Climate Change legislation.

[Gravija1980]

I support Ron Paul 1000%, but he just said it all at 1:20 - "I'm in the goverment and I don't know anything about fixing oil leaks!" Look, I *wrote in* Ron Paul on the ballot in 2008 and there is a time for Statism, but eventually we need to put ENGINEERS in charge of the infrastructure. No more politicians, lawyers or judges - in the future all of these professions will be outlawed!

zeitgeistmovement(dot)com

[jfor101]

@Gravija1980 , I agree with everything you just said except for the zeitgeist movement. Have you seen Addendum? They actually mock Ron Paul, and the idea that electing honest politicians can make a difference. They blame the free market for our economic woes and want government to be in charge of it. While there is some good about them, the zeitgeist movement is just another ultra-socialist utopian movement.

[Gravija1980]

@jfor101 How long will Ron Paul be alive for? How many Ron Pauls will there be? There are 535 members of the House and Senate - how likely is is that Americans could vote in 535 uncorruptable people and for how long? Ron Paul (or any other politician) is NOT the long term solution for humanity; and that is the point ZA was making. The Constitution was a stroke of temporal genius, but it's time has passed and I think we would all agree a piece of paper doesn't give what The Creator gave us.

[Gravija1980]

@jfor101 [cont] In fact, Peter Joseph has said as much in interviews that Ron Paul is fantastic and he supports him - however eventually the system will break down even if Dr. Paul was president (and managed to see the end of his term(s)). The people I have spoken with at ZM meetings pretty much all feel the same way - just that we need the goverment to be as stable as possible until we as a society can take the next evolution.

[trashcanman1000]

RP defending the pres. why? Because if he attacks then people will see RP knows less than the pres. he showed he yellow stripe in this interview. The president has said many times now that BP does nothing without the government telling them to, and that the government has been in charge from day one. Go back and check the tape if you don't believe me

[Lightfromsirius]

The industrial countries are the ones which hand out licenses and make contracts for oil drilling. The Companys are those that implement the desire of these states into action. Without government contracts and licenses, no oil drilling. Therefore, a State must also pay for damages and the company may not be responsibility alone. Maybe it had to come to a catastrophe, so that these mindless exploitation of the resources finally ends and a serious turning point comes in the energy policy.

[Justicar333]

@FumingPoliticalPunk Ron didn't say keep the fed outa the disaster control effort. He just said, free the local state goverments to try their own ideals, rather than waiting for the layers of bueracacy to slowly grind out ideals. Fed being too far removed, having too many chiefs. While local can react much more quickly to unfolding events. Fire departments don't rely on federal marching orders when a fire breaks out. They just go put the fire out.

[ShadowSandy]

@FumingPoliticalPunk oh okay. I am sorry there was a misunderstanding then.

[ShadowSandy]

@FumingPoliticalPunk

I dont think you understand. He is saying that the regulations in question are stopping the states from taking care of themselves. i.e. Putting up sand barrier islands to keep the oil out of the wetlands. Not taking it off the oil companies, taking it off the states themselves and allow them to take the steps they think is prudent.

[newauraxx]

We need more men like Ron Paul.

[newauraxx]

We need more men like Ron Paul.

[smallmaniac]

If Obama's blaming the oil spill on too few regulations I doubt he'll remove the inhibitors on the cleanup.

[KrazilyKatelyn]

It's funny how the U.S gov't can do things as quickly as they want or they can postpone something as long as they want no matter the grounds. For example Patriot act and the oil spill

ron paul is right on !

[aragornsargonath]

As much as I don't like Obama, I do think Ron Paul is right that you can't blame the government for the lack of effort being made on their part for cleaning up an oil spoil. 

[Imetalman2000]

He makes a good point, But then again Ron Paul always makes good points.

[ihatemexico]

If president, Ron Paul could literally start a renaissance in this country.

go rp!

[Mauhadeeb28]

This shit may not have happened if the government would have allowed for new drilling to alleviate the pressure on the rig. BP has been asking for years to incorporate new safety measures so they don't any oil......

Thanks again Big government. You will be the fall of mankind.

[TheOnetrueself]

Ron is clearly the man America needs to survive this century,

his not a crook like most other leaders, he can start a new age of American glory,

a new age of the new world.

Give a hand to a friend of America, a leader of the people, a man who I hope in the next two years will be on top of the republican party,

a man who has been consistently a true man of the Republic,

a man who the sons of our sons will one day praise as the man who rebuilt American liberty

[prayfortruejustice]

@TheOnetrueself  - Presidents are selected no elected. There is no benefit to the Corporations (including elite banks and big pharma), the MIC, the FED, etc if Ron Paul was elected. If Ron Paul had his way, laws and contracts would be enforced by government, and free markets and smaller government would leave the people to be prosperous. Freedom would come back and taxes would end.

We can't have that. The serfs need to work for the elite as always. Now get back to work and shut up.

[TheOnetrueself]

@prayfortruejustice agreed

[Wolffanator]

@TheOnetrueself

Man, that sounds like a Utopian Paradise. Ron Paul must be a Prophet.

[Jellyg00se]

@TheOnetrueself

"Ron is clearly the man America needs to survive this century."

Well said.

[failblorg]

@TheOnetrueself you make a good point. the true leaders of our world are not those who seek that leadership it is those who work to serve others and others by their hand bring those true leaders into power.

a true leader is a servant of the people. not a tyrant. nobody likes a tyrant. we should all work to be servants of humanity. and serve each other.
