State of Emergency: Oil Spill closer to Florida as panel promises to 'investigate'

U.S. President Barack Obama is to set up a commission to investigate the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The move's been used in the wake of other national disasters. It comes after warnings the leaking oil may reach the Florida coastline. BP, which ran the rig, has since managed to attach a pipe to contain the leak. However, experts warn it could face a clean up bill of billions.

Forget BP - what's Obama done?

There are dozens of companies worldwide that are experts in cleaning oil out of the water - Obama hasn't met with any of them. - - But - he has had time to go golfing, attend concerts, throw parties, and go on a vacation, since the oil started spewing into the ocean.

Obama has turned down help from 14 different countries, including the Netherlands - our destroyed coastlines will be more Obama's fault - than BPs.

PLUGGING BP WELL BY A STRING OF CEMENT-FILLED CASING PIPES:

{BP has to lower down the well bore through the Riser Pipe Stub and the Blowout Preventer a string of 16"- 18" Casing Pipes connected together 500-1000 ft long after being filled with cement. BP Well will instantly be plugged and there will be no need for the Relief Wells. The annular space between the Casing Pipe String and the well walls can be filled by pumping cement. The whole operation will take few hours} BP said it would work.

As I said, below on filling the casing pipes with cement, BP admitted it would work,

but will KILL the well... they don't want to plug it up because they will not be able to

get the oil after it has been sealed. This mean billions of dollars in BP's pocket!!

They care nothing about us here nor our lands and wildlife.
