BP is operating at our direction?
That's sounded like Barack Obama was maneuvering himself to take credit if BP was able to “plug the hole” using the Top Kill method.
However, Mr. President, if you wanna take credit for BP’s work, then by the same token, you have to bear the blame if BP fails.
President Obama is failing his task to protect the United States from the possibly the worst ecological disaster in U.S. history.
From Nola.com:
A BP executive says the company has yet to stop the oil flowing into the Gulf of Mexico and is considering other ways to plug the leak.
A source told The Times-Picayune that officials would announce the failure of the top kill option at a 4 p.m. Saturday briefing in Robert .
BP is expected to announce that it will move on to its next option, known as LMRP. The procedure involves cutting off the failed, leaking riser at the top of the Lower Marine Riser Package on the blowout preventer to get a clean-cut surface on the pipe.
Then the company will install a cap with a sealing grommet that would be connected to a new riser from the Discoverer Enterprise drillship, with the hopes of capturing most of the oil and gas flowing from the well.
BP began a risky operation known as "top kill" on Wednesday. The procedure involves pumping heavy drilling mud into the crippled well in a bid to stop the oil. It's never been tried in 5,000 feet of water.
The oil spill began after the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded last month, killing 11 people. It's the worst spill in U.S. history, dumping between 18 million and 40 million gallons into the Gulf.
It’s time for the president to leave Chicago and direct BP as to what to do next since they’re operating under his direction.
