No, that is your litmus test for hating the country, not mine. My litmus test is when you try to throw away over 200 years of history to have the feds take over control of our lives. That is truly hating the country and that is what you are supporting with the Street Vendor we have in office now. You know they hate the country when they say a crisis is too good to waste. Do you really want your government to be based on using a crisis to take more control over the lives of the people. That is what you are supporting here. How about the brother of our sainted Rahm who says people should die so the rest of us have better lives. Is that truly what you think is loving the country? Boy, are you ever f*cked up!! BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!

you and your ilk are the ones who hate the country and all it stands for.

59 Days Into Oil Crisis, Gulf Coast Governors Say Feds Are Failing Them

*By DAVID MUIR and BRADLEY BLACKBURN*
June 17, 2010
Eight days ago, Louisiana <http://topics.abcnews.go.com/topic/Louisiana> 
Gov. Bobby Jindal <http://topics.abcnews.go.com/topic/Bobby-Jindal>

ordered

barges to begin vacuuming crude
oil<

http://abcnews.go.com/WN/Media/bp-oil-spill-thick-crude-hits-shore-wo...>

out
of his state's oil-soaked waters. Today, against the governor's wishes,
those barges sat idle, even as more oil flowed toward the Louisiana

shore.

Louisiana Governor Jindal frustrated over decision-making red tape.
"It's the most frustrating thing," the 
Republican<http://topics.abcnews.go.com/topic/U.S.-Republican-Party>
 governor said today in Buras, La. "Literally, yesterday morning we found
out that they were halting all of these barges."
*Watch "World News" for David Muir's report from Louisiana tonight.* Sixteen barges sat stationary today, although they were sucking up 
thousands

of gallons of BP's oil as recently as
Tuesday<http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/citizens-charge-10924636>.
Workers in hazmat suits and gas masks pumped the oil out of the Louisiana
waters and into steel tanks. It was a homegrown idea that seemed to be
effective at collecting the thick gunk.
"These barges work. You've seen them work. You've seen them suck oil out 
of

the water," said Jindal.

BP Spill: Oil Thicker Than Ever on
Shore<

http://abcnews.go.com/WN/Media/bp-oil-spill-thick-crude-hits-shore-wo...>

Coast Guard Orders Barges to Stop
So why stop now? "The Coast Guard came and shut them down," Jindal said. "You got men on 
the

barges in the oil, and they have been told by the Coast Guard, 'Cease and
desist. Stop sucking up that oil.'"
A Coast Guard representative told ABC News today that it shares the same 
goal as the governor.
"We are all in this together. The enemy is the oil," said Coast Guard Lt. 
Cmdr. Dan Lauer.
But the Coast Guard ordered the stoppage because of reasons that Jindal 
found frustrating. The Coast Guard needed to confirm that there were fire
extinguishers and life vests on board, and then it had trouble contacting
the people who built the barges.
Louisiana Governor Couldn't Overrule Coast Guard The governor said he didn't have the authority to overrule the Coast 
Guard's

decision, though he said he tried to reach the White
House<http://topics.abcnews.go.com/topic/White-House>
 to raise his concerns.
"They promised us they were going to get it done as quickly as possible," 
he

said. But "every time you talk to someone different at the Coast Guard,

you

get a different answer."
After Jindal strenuously made his case, the barges finally got the 
go-ahead

today to return to the Gulf and get back to work, after more than 24

hours

of sitting idle.
