Feds: Oil, gas leaking from cap on ruptured well 7/19/2010 6:43:00 PM

According to the current law, BP payments for lost income are taxable in the same way that the wages or business income these payments are replacing would have been," states the IRS in a press release. "The law treats compensation for lost wages or income differently for tax purposes than compensation for physical injuries or property loss, which generally are nontaxable.

But British Polluter Tony Hayward said "I think the environmental impact of this disaster is likely to have been very, very modest."

Anyway the whole thing is America's fault. TP says so.

Of course it is America's fault you fucking jackass. You are the ones with the insatiable demand for foreign oil which can only be assuaged by looking for deepwater oil off your shores, that is an undeniable fact except to ill educated, simplistic morons like you. You were the ones that put the legislative framework in place and then failed to police it properly. Finally the drilling platform was operated by an American company based in Switzerland and flagged in the Marshall Islands. TP says so, because it's true.

Your contempt for America and Americans is obvious.

Is that why you don't regret the deaths and massive environmental damage cause by the BP oil spill?

I have contempt for a certain type of American of which you are a prime example. When will you express regret for the massive loss of life caused by Union Carbide at Bhopal and Occidental Petroleum on Piper Alpha?
 
The Engish are jealous of our wealth and power.

So little men like TP hate us while refusing to acknowledge the massive damage their greed and incompetence have caused our Gulf Coast.

What makes me laugh is that you probably live 2000+ miles from the Gulf, you act as if it was on your doorstep!
 
Are you saying that you live in Bhopal, since you have such an obsession with that disaster?

Your logic fails.

Do you work for BP, or are you just an apologist for them?
 
Lord Tebbit said it best: "The whole might of American wealth and technology is displayed as utterly unable to deal with the disastrous spill, so what is more natural than a crude, bigoted, xenophobic display of partisan political presidential petulance against a multinational company?"

Now here's a troll monopolizing my meticulously marvelous own heart. Too bad everything else about him is rediculously routinized rapid rubbish.
 
How would the Brits phrase the skull dragging that Brit Petro is undergoing will undergo till we bleed about 30 billion from them.

Kudo's to Tom for whining about Bhopal for the 1,000 time without it being noticed.
 
"the rig's general blow-out alarm had been manually switched off. The event has been described as an ecological holocaust on the scale of Bhopal and Chernobyl."

"A month into the disaster, the EPA forced BP to switch to a less toxic version of solvent. On May 20, it ordered BP to look for less toxic alternatives to Corexit, and later ordered the oil company to stop spraying dispersants. However, BP argued that Corexit was the best alternative, and continued spraying it."

"Solvents spread the oil in three directions, including downward, keeping much of the spilled oil submerged. The problem is that the oil may remain suspended, forming underwater plumes instead of rising to the surface."
