4. BP execs are just going to continue lying
BP must be held accountable for this disaster. From day one it has been far worse than we have been told by BP, the feds and the corporate media. Now after finally admitting the leak is far greater than originally estimated and acknowledging the existence of giant underwater plumes of oil, the media and BP are downplaying the health risks to cleanup workers and Gulf residents. The truth is that toxins in the air from evaporating oil and dispersants may pose an even greater health risk to Gulf coast residents than toxic water. There are even unconfirmed rumors of FEMA planning an evacuation of the coast as far as 200 miles inland if the air becomes unfit to breathe. Check out this article for more information: http://www.examiner.com/x-38220-Orlando-Independent-Examiner~y2010m6d15-Toxins-in-air-from-evaporating-oil-may-pose-greater-threat-to-Gulf-residents-than-oily-water. The author has been writing about the magnitude of the leak and the underwater plumes for weeks before either were mentioned in the mainstream media.

7. And again this is posted with no link. CSPAN.org is broken and I've
been trying to watch this hearing since it was posted about 15 minutes ago by someone else. They didn't post the link either.

9.  Rep Cao (R-LA)

Rep Cao (R-LA) says in Asian culture would give him samurai sword and ask him to commit hari kari.

Angry that claims by constituents being denied.
