President Obama REFUSES Scientific Facts to be used in Gulf Oil Spill

It appears more important for President Obama to serve the interests of corporations like BP than to honor his campaign promise to use science to obtain the best results.

A group of independent scientists, frustrated and dumbfounded by the continued lack of the most basic data about the 77-day-old BP oil disaster, has put together a crash project intended to definitively measure how much oil has spilled and where and how it is spreading throughout the waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

An all-star team of top oceanographers, chemists, engineers and other scientists could be ready to head out to the well site on two fully-equipped research vessels on about a week's notice. But they need to get the go-ahead -- and about $8.4 million -- from BP or the federal government or both. And that does not appear imminent.

What happened to the Obama policies we were promised? "Fool me once......"

Durn it that link wouldn't work for me....We all need to keep the pressure on. This Gulf Oil Disaster is incredibly criminal and is exposing the forces behind the curtains that are controlling and ruling our country. The deck is surely stacked and there is no level, equitable playing field.
