On June 29 The Duck Shoot broke the story that the Obama administration was preventing access to areas where thousands of sea creatures were dead and injured. The question asked was why the US government cover-up? Watch the CNN video where Anderson Cooper discusses how the Obama administration is limiting access to the media to areas affected by the BP Macondo well spill.
The shorelines are littered with thousands of dead fish and birds. A thick carpet of foul-smelling sludge covers acres of beaches and marshland. The ruptured deep sea oil well continues to gush thousands of barrels of this deadly pollutant every hour – largely unabated. So where are the pictures to support the above statements? Apart from the same footage of the deep-sea gush that gets re-run by TV news channels every day there are few because the United States is covering up this disaster.

BA is by normal business standards a bankrupt enterprise. What used to be known as “the world’s favourite airline” has fallen short in recent years on service and competitiveness. So what’s the answer according to the overpaid CEO Willie Wanker Walsh? Well WWW is a reincarnation of a cotton slaver. He believes punishment will induce the ‘slaves’ loyalty and make them work harder for less money.
