And then the media went really gaga until about 24 hours later when......oh......no......it was not BP oil and it was really just regular seepage from oil seeping into the ocean from the ocean floor.
And we all giggle.
No - no BP oil on Texas soil kids. Just natural leakage ..... and as we all giggle a little because of the media gaga - we step back and take a look at why?
As I pointed out, two original tests on the tar balls produced conflicting results, but
results from a new, more comprehensive test were released yesterday:
Chief Warrant Officer Lionel Bryant said Tuesday that tar balls found on a Galveston beach last week are from the ruptured BP-operated Deepwater Horizon oil well.
Tar balls located July 5 on McFaddin Beach, a stretch of coast east of Bolivar Peninsula, were the first confirmation that crude from the massive BP oil spill had reached Texas shores.
Last week, new laboratory results had officials backing off claims that many of the tar balls that had recently washed up on Texas shores were from the April 20 oil rig disaster. The confusion was attributed to contradictory test results from two labs.
How the tar balls got to our local beaches is still under investigation, but this is not "natural seepage."

According to anonymous sources the Klein's prognosis isn't good...terminal stupidity.
How many times do we have to tell Klein what an IDIOT he is before he believes us? The only two things that he is qualified to talk about is bankruptcy and divorce.
If Klein is so astute at determining budgets than why was his foray into the fastfood world such a dismal failure?
