Call me crazy, but that's really really coincidental. I'm just saying . . .

Interesting point. In other news, Elvis has been spotted and the moon landing was flimed in a studio. :rolleyes:

Wrong...wrong...wrong...You guys are losing your touch. You need some remedial training. The Democratic Party is regurgitating it for the Fall elections. Don't know it yet? OK, time's up....

It's all Bush's fault.

also, this is apparently a non event as of now.

nothing more than the normal MMS incident report and investigation to come of this.

also would like to point out this is proof that a platform is safe, all of the safety backups worked properly. the fusible caps all engaged and shut the well in without anyone being on board. it sounds like this was human error for sure, just like the BP well i'm sure will be deemed a human error.

I see Elvis multiple times a week, so I'm not sure what you're talking about there. And what is this moon landing you speak of?

My point was, it seems to be a really convenient coincidence.

Sorry, Believer. I have their playbook. It's not a tough read if you should get a copy. Whatever the occasion...it's always Bush's fault. I don't know what is sadder...the fact that they spew it or the fact that they think it sells to the American electorate. In either case, it is indeed transparent, just like the teleprompter reader guy said it would be.
