Vatic Note: THIS IS ANOTHER DAMN BAILOUT BILL!!!! No more.... there has to be a line in the sand and I believe this one is it. Let's do something about it right now, CALL THOSE GOP NEOCONS, and tell them this is the very last straw on bail outs, tell the company that if we do this and pay for it, we take them over lock stock and barrel, and Rothschild can kiss this company of his good bye. So given both sides are neocons, what game are they playing here? How can a minority party block anything??? They really do think we are stupid. They use GOP legislators from safe districts that are neocon voters and put them out front, so those in trouble (Dems) can "pretend" they are fighting for us since they are in trouble in their districts. What a joke. I am so disgusted with them its not even funny. So, lets not make it easy on them shall we??? Call those republicans so it puts those dems on the spot and forces them to pass that bill and spike their benefactors. Call those Republican senators and tell them to back off and allow this bill to pass, in fact, tell them that the BP owners actually should be criminally charged and thrown in jail since Goldman Sachs shorted that company that owned the rig hours before the accident and made billions off of the scam. Tell them that is criminal and now looks like an intentional crime was committed that may kill every living thing in that gulf and rather than worry about liability, they worry about the death penalty for murder of anyone who died as a result of that false flag. I believe the satanic master number designated by Alistair Crowley is 11 and that is exactly the number of men who died on that rig. A sacrifice plus greed, plus who knows what other mulitple agenda they had over this. MAKE THE CALL TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE GOP CONGRESSMEN THAT ARE BLOCKING THE BILL. How can they be blocking it, since they are the minority party and none of the dems are on their side, so how can they block it??? ITS A LIE AND A SCAM, but call anyway and call their bluff.

GOP Blocks Oil Spill Liability Bill
Posted by Stephanie Condon
Republicans for the second time blocked legislation that would increase oil companies' liability for oil spill damages, setting off criticism from Democrats seeking to make BP pay for the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) on Tuesday blocked (VN: HOW did he block it? as a minority party member? Why won't they tell us?) a bill Democrats have put forward to raise the liability cap from $75 million to $10 billion. He said on the Senate floor he agrees the cap should be raised, but the Senate should "wait and see where the cap should be." (VN: I worked 3 years as a legislative analyst and used to watch them do this dog and pony show for their constitutents all the time, they would help each other out of jams and that is exactly what this is, poorly done I might add since they don't have the power to block anything)
"If you have it too high you are going to be singling out BP and the other four largest majors and the nationalized companies, such as China and Venezuela, and shutting out the independent producers," he said.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) blocked the legislation last week. (VN: Checked and she is owned by the Wall Street bankers, nothing new here, but notice how they don't tell you how they blocked it since they don't have enough to sustain a filibuster so make them tell us how they blocked it? Not a word about how?)
President Obama released a statement saying he is disappointed by the Republicans' objections.
"This maneuver threatens to leave taxpayers, rather than the oil companies, on the hook for future disasters like the BP oil spill," he said. "I urge the Senate Republicans to stop playing special interest politics and join in a bipartisan effort to protect taxpayers and demand accountability from the oil companies."
Roll Call reports that Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), one of the sponsors of the legislation, reportedly asked, "This is really about whose side do you stand on? Do you stand up with the taxpayers or with multibillion-dollar oil companies?" (VN: I heard he was in trouble in his district, so this makes sense)
Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), another co-sponsor, similarly derided the GOP.
"What we're watching here is a sham," Lautenberg said, Politico reports. "We see our friends on the other side--correct that, the people on the other side... not friendly in this case, [and we want them] to stand up and say, 'Yeah. You did it? Pay for it.'"
Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said yesterday that a $10 billion cap is inadequate.
