2. These shouldn't sink
We need to bear witness to this. Yesterday I posted about Kevin Costner's centrifuge machines being deployed on a large skimmer and it didn't last long.

4. post it again and again and again..please..
those of us on the Gulf can not let these images die..as our Gulf and Gulf Coast are dying because of the greedy fuckers and our government who did this to her! and to these precious wild life ..

I see these pictures and I scream it makes me so angry..and then I cry ..

My back yard is the gulf and I want each and every American to have these images burned into their memories..because today it is on the Guf..but one day they will be faced with the Oily Rain and snow and their vegitation will be effected ..and their birds will migrate here..and if they return they will have the toxins in them!

5. That should ruin some beautiful minds.
Thanks, G_j. It's easy to see why this stuff missing from ABCNNBCBSFixedNutsNoiseworks. It's called "evidence."

13. they can try to hide the truth..but everyone will eventually be living with it..
they can't hide from it forever..that will be impossible!

Their kids and their kids, kids will live with this!

Think Operatives..but they can't hide it from those of us on the Gulf today..and the rest of you tommorrow! And all the tommorrows to come!

And a few years when all the cancers show themselves in our bodies from the dispersants..we will all be paying for it.

Just ask yourself honestly..where the fuck is our government and where have they been??

I will tell you ..in the pockets of BP a foreign oil corporation! While they destroy the lives of your fellow Americans!

8. Thank you for posting this (and also the warning).
We have to keep this front and center for as long as we can. Between the workers killed the first night, the people who are being poisoned every day by the toxins, the loss of livelihoods and the dead fish and animal life, we can't let people forget.

IF this leak is stopped, prepare for the media and the government to announce that all is well and that it wasn't as bad as first feared. There are going to be some major CYA maneuvers that will be used to make this go away ASAP.

I'm hoping that serious long term studies will be done on the consequences of this crime, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

A lot of Americans will fall for it as usual. They'd rather hear what inane things Lindsay L. or Mel G. are up to than hear real news reporters reporting on real news.

16. It is, isn't it?
Except for the group who wet themselves daily watching the ROV cams...

"Wow bet those guys are cool gamers!"

I have seen it all on DU and nothing surprises me anymore.

15. Every time I look at these and other photos
of this epic tragedy I feel a very physical, spiritual and emotional response. And I must wonder if the powers that be have any of those responses or if their only concern is to cover their asses.

17. somewhere deep inside
everyone probably feels something, even if it's just in our DNA, as we came from the oceans.
