My Politics

I've voted for the Libertarians the last 10 elections for President. I do not believe in the Republinuts or the Democraps, or, the big media that supports them.

Because of the above - my views, IMO, are the real independent; THE `Eagle' views, and not the `centrist' `independent' views of those that alternate between the Jackass and the Elephant.

Thanks for checking out my politics blog.

MSM's Coverage Of Gulf `SPILL' Pushing Some Into Rants

Got this one from a good buddy of mine today.

Time for the truth to be told. The rate of flow out of the main leak

is at least 259,000 barrels per day, not the 5,000 BP Oil is admitting
to on NBC 5/22/10 at 6:45 pm. The math is simple. You look at the
rate of flow out of the main leak. It is really gushing, for sure.
That pipe is 22" wide. Almost exactly the diameter of an oil barrel.
Every 3 feet of oil that comes out is 1 barrel. Count ...one thousand
one..... and estimate how many feet come out. That pipe is rated for
10,000 psi. I say at least 9 or 10 feet of crap erupts from the broken
end. Probably closer to 15, but we will be conservative. So, 3
barrels per second times 60 seconds times 60 minutes equals 10,800
barrels per hour. What is BP talking about and why didn't anyone at
NBC question this???? 10,800 times 24 hours EQUALS 259,200 barrels of
oily crap spewing into the Gulf of Mexico everyday! How can BP say
5,000????? This number is just for the main leak that most of the
video has focused on. When will we get to know the truth???? Are they
lying to keeps the markets up????? I guess we could employ a few
million to stand on the beach and sop up oil blobs for a few
years....Texas, LA, Miss, Bama..FLA, GA, SC, NC....MD......England?????
The Gulf Stream will take it back to the beaches in England ..poetic
perhaps. How many miles of coastline will be affected???? Fishing in
all those states will be highly compromised...all water
sports.........we have no idea how much this is going to cost the
worldwide economy.

Send me your rant via the comments. Thanks for visiting today.
