Federal government responders may be correct in stating that low flow-rate estimates did not negatively affect their operations," said one of the commission's working papers. "Even if responders are correct, however, loss of the public's trust during a disaster is not an incidental public relations problem."

The reports delivered a harsh assessment of the administration's later contention that most of the spill was "gone." They point to comments by Carol M. Browner, Obama's climate and energy czar, who in a television interview mischaracterized a report as saying that three-quarters of the spill had disappeared.

I don't know about you, but its time for more than oil to just,disapear.

    I agree bore-head, this disaster has been mishandled from the start. And now the hearings are being made as a joke in that BP is thumbing their nose at the courts and refusing access to their internal records, and the ugly part is the government is doing nothing to force their compliance.

    Something I caught in the article:

    The federal effort "was full force and immediate, and the response focused on state and local plans and evolved when needed," National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration head Jane Lubchenco and OMB Acting Director Jeffrey Zients said in a statement.

    You and I and the North East Fisheries know how much you can believe these two thieves.

      Whenever I heard Carol Browner's yap, origionaly, spewing that the oil was three quarters gone from the Gulf, and after months of watching this crime against the American people, and our marine resources, and watching Lubchenco, and Allen licking the balls of BP, I believe this administration has conspired against us.

      The elections are coming. I will only support those who pro job,pro small business, pro citizen.

      Pro truth.

      There should be a lot of new faces around the congress. I support pro fishing politicians, and they know who they are, and so do many that follow the fisheries.
