Oil Spill Reported Near Deepwater Drilling Site in Gulf



As we all focus our attention towards Japan and other Governmental take over attempts...........Lets not forget the Gulf of Mexico..........It appears that there are new reports of a 100 mile oil slick located near the Deep Horizon............

We will be updating this story as more news is discovered..........

The Coast Guard is investigating reports of a potentially large oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico not far from the Deepwater Horizon site. According to a knowledgeable source, the slick was sighted by a helicopter pilot on Friday and is about 100 miles long. A fishing boat captain said he went through the slick yesterday and it was strong enough to make his eyes burn.


According to the Times Picayune, the Coast Guard has confirmed they are investigating a potentially large 100 mile slick about 30 miles offshore. They are going to a site near the Matterhorn well site about 20 miles north of the BP Deepwater Horizon site, according to the paper. The Matterhorn field includes includes a deepwater drilling platform owned by W&T Technology. It was acquired last year from TotalFinaElf E&P.


Independent pilots are attempting to reach the slick today. Bonnie Schumaker with Wings of Care reported she saw a slick two days ago and is attempting to reach the site.

Looks like it is W&T Offshore Incorporated. Not sure how this all works, but they have a 100% working interest in the well.

This is why MSM is so terrifying on their reporting. Better Libya and Japan then the GULF in our backyard that has serious consequences for us in the US more then anything. NOT less important off shore.(Anybody hurting bleeds and hurts the same)

And I mean no disrespect to anybody in any Country,.. but the NONreport by our Media for the atrocity being ignored in our own waters and boardering nations is pretty devestating..

We were bulldozed into being MADE to forget about it by MSM.. Plus? we don't want to hear how BAD that water got poisoned. It hurts us. We WANT to pretend it's fine. (I don't)

Better to hurt over THERE for humanity. Makes it easier HERE for us to watch something farther away.(hey just TV). Not much less hurtful either.But Less hurtful. Unless family and friends in Military or in Harms way in the other country are involved. Then REALLY hurtful.

BullShi.....

AND? I'm not saying don't drill again.. But DON'T throw it under the carpet again if there is an error.
.Clean up was abysmal at best..
American people won't allow it again.. Drill Clean or clean it up. And CLEAN.. You people that allowed it to NOT get clean? Shame. That poor gulf and the people that live there have not seen the end of it by a long shot.

Oh... You want to see an American get pissed when a company like BP says their responsibitly is over in the Gulf and everythings fine? Hey.. I'm an American citizen first. Don't give me your global diatrob.

DON"T think because you payed off some fisherman in the Gulf the rest of America did'nt make a note on how crappy that went. That's our food and our peoples lifes work there. It's NOT clean..and it's STILL getting worse.

DON'T think we're not watching the way the Japanese LIED to their citizens about EVERYTHING, as the situation continues to develope.

DON"T think we're not watching and feeling unsure exactly how you'll present things to us too...regardless of the severity of the situation..

Americans are'nt stupid. NOR the Japanese. NOR most countries peoples..

DUPED??... ALL the time.

That's on us and YOU.
Let's try and learn ,and be aware from these mistakes.

I know I am.

Sientifically, that's not suppose to happen. Being from Florida, I learned alot about the spill and its effects last year. Chances are more likely it's a new spill, or leak from the old site.

There is no one representing the people of the U.S. any more. All news agencys respresent the New World Order. The U.S. Government is the military aspect of the Order. They already know our asses are dead and have already taken steps to protect the elite, what happens to us is moot. Congress and Senate are just figures of a dead society to keep up a front for the American people, when was the last time either actually did anything to actually help the people if the U.S.A.
