I really feel bad for all these fisheries and the environmental repercussions of this tragedy. It seems this thing will leak until it is out of oil to discharge . BP may cap the first leak but now have to contend with this? What effect this will have on a global level will be huge!

Weird thing is And I have it recorded. When the reporter was interviewing Jesse Jackson she says and I quote," Breaking News just in as scientists report a new leak from the Gulf of Mexico 22 miles off the coast near Mobile, AL. There is not a lot on information on this at this moment but the report that was handed to me says it may be larger than the first. I wonder how this has happened. " Then she bid the Rev. bye and commercials ensued. Nothing after.
I am sorry for the confusion but as you see I had reason for it.

Well, it could very well happen - all of that. Sure we mustn't overreact but to downplay the whole thing like you're effectively doing via sarcasm towards concerned folk, is a tragedy in itself.

I was actually going to post a lengthy response regarding my actual opinion to this entire subject, however I've changed my mind.
I'm left with only one question:
Taking all of reality into consideration, how long are we going to sit back and let these "top dogs" lie directly to our faces in regards to life changing events, before we actually *stand up* and stop it? Will it be... Forever? Because that's what it looks like.
I would most definitely lead the pack if I had the ability, but unfortunately I don't. However, I would gladly hop onto the "bandwagon," armed to teeth, if some type of revolt were to begin. I just don't have the financial backing to start anything worthwhile, by myself, or I would have already. Trust me.
All I can say for certain is that I'm growing incredibly tired of being walked on by people, corporations, industries and governments I have absolutely no care, nor respect for. I honestly wish I had the power to do something about it, besides babbling on virtual forums, but at this point I don't.
How about the rest of you?
Curious,

As I looked at Obama's face today during his press conference, I got a feeling that there is something else wayyyy bigger than this oil spill going on. There's something else bigger, and it's not N. or S. Korea. I do feel that he's entirely inept at handling this disaster and it shows. But there's a sense that something else is happening right now that we don't know about.
And it's very possible that wikileaks is about to expose it.
