I love Rachel....she tells it like it is. Only thing she left out is WHO messed up on the Horizon. WHO cemented the well? WHO is not mentioned in the news? WHO took shortcuts in cementing the well to save money? Helloooooooooooo HALLIBURTON..!!

Amazing how often that name comes up during screw ups isn't it?
Now come on, we all know it's Bush's fault. :wink2:
I've heard you know who say that many times. :rolleyes2:
I worked in the oil patch for a while. My job was first run a small tool on a wireline down the open hole to find open hole size. The drilling superintendent provided the new pipe size. Then calculate the volume of cement needed to fill the hole, allowing for pipe size. That information was passed on to Halliburton or BJ, which ever was doing the job. Both were experts in their field. After the cement cured, we came back and run another tool to check if we gave them the correct information.
l feel that deep sea blowout preventers need better testing procedures or better blowout preventers.
Got to agree... Horizon had an excellent safety record!
I doubt if Rachel Maddow would know how to check the oil in her car.
