hiding the HD version of the broken pipe. Paying Google and Tv channels to make themselves look good. Denying about the underwater Plumes when they knew about it all along. they even blame another company for it. now there stocks are going done. they killed wildlife and some fishermen (some still trying to recover after katrina) will be out if bussiness. They just disgust me, i dont even trust them cleaning it up.

EDIT: links

BP denies plumes

Paying google

Blaming other companies

Fishermen

Edit2: searching more links

The haterade and finger-pointing begins when the damn hole is plugged. That is my only concern right now.

Yeah. It's like they were trying to be the biggest douche possible. Why try to hide stuff? It's not like we weren't going to find out eventually.

For fairness sake, you will have to provide some evidence if you make such claims against them. I heard something about them denying the plumes, but how can we know if they knew about it or not?

they are just acting as any money hungry corporation would during damage control. Until the world gets over it's addiction to oil, this is what everyone has to put up with.

In addition to the damage to the pipe above the sea floor, there appears to have been a breach in the pipe below the surface (though who knows how far down) = oil leak out below the surface = oil come up all over the place -there is almost no way they could have known about this till the oil was coming up -and it is fairly obvious that they will not be able to hide anything while under 24 hour a day surveillance The problem now lies in where to drill the relief well (must be below the breach)

Yes, but that doesn't mean that I have to start. Everyone is more concerned about holding BP responsible and condemning BP when the problem hasn't even been fixed. The blame game can wait until the well has been capped.

See I'd agree with you, if they haven't been spending more time trying to hide and corrupt information than actually trying to plug the leak.

It's business for them, they tried to cut corners in order to make more profits and it backfired on them badly,very badly. Do they disgust me? No, they don't.

Not really. It was an Industrial accident. It happens. They haven't moved quick enough, IMO, to fix the problem, but accidents happen. It's not like they did it on purpose.

This is the way every company in this industry behaves, it is wrong I agree but while everybody is arguing like little children more oil is leaking...Barrack Obama disgusts me too, he voiced his opinion as if he was only directing it for mtv news, and further more its a massive double standard when nothing happened about Bhopal.

:lol: It is impossible not to buy BP gas (or gas that somehow profits BP) -that is just how the oil and gas industry works -unless you never drive a car, take a bus, etc ever again....you will be giving BP money So before you :lol: at others, you should probably be sure it is an option to not buy BP gas

Yeah, it's disgusting, his lack of action is. If we voted for McCain and Palin, McCain would put a cape on Palin and send her down to clog the leaks with her super magnetic powers.

This is more or less a bipartisan issue.. Both sides are guilty of this, but though Republicans are far more blantent in their push for such things.
