Oil finally reached the Lousiana Coast and residents are targeting their anger toward BP. The EPA has forced BP to switch to less toxic chemical dispersant now, although 655,000 gallons of the now-banned toxic dispersant has already released into the water. Report includes exclusive video of chemical being released underwater.

Seems as though if our government doesn't get ahead of this, it is going to suffocate wildlife for decades in the region. And yet, still BP appears to be in complete control of the operation. So much for our government being able to respond to a disaster once again in the Gulf. I hope Obama realizes this is not going well and he will no doubt eventually have blame assigned to his administration for the lack of force at which the disaster was handled - and for giving BP free reign to lie to the American people.
omg -
as the report notes, Janet Napolitano is now sending a letter to BP! ...Wow, now that is real action.
