The go it alone attitude of the United States who claims they have all the right answers and solutions about how the world should be run continue to be incompetent in protecting the environment, the economy and world affairs. The majority of executives in public office had worked for the oil companies, military and drug companies at one point in their lives, which has become a major conflict of interest to doing what is right for the American people and for the world. The Gulf Coast oil spill will affect all life on this plant. Why are World Leaders allowing the United States government (Corporation), whose bottom line is profits from oil and constant wars around the world being allowed to B.S. the world that they can go it alone and solve this problem?

I believe the Russian Government or a resposible entity in Russia have made at least three (3) offers to assist at no cost in helping to correct this catastrophe. This action of trying to help without being asked should be respected and appreciated. It seems however we are into a myriad of confusion with conflicts between the lobbyists, special interests, BP Oil, Transocean, Halliburton, the U.S. Government, etc. The spokespersons now are two Coast Guard Officers who I believe have no previous training in the dynamics of crude oil. I can ony hope for all the people who are affected that someone (preferrably President Obama) finally takes charge firmly. Literally bring Tony Hayward to the White House (or another facility) as a guest until this matter is properly attended to! As an example we are told it is crude oil - But crude oil varies in its composition, such as NORM (normal occurring radioactive material) being a part, along with many other deadly components - What is the actual composition of this type of crude oil, tell the people? Russia has much knowledge gained in working with crude oil everyday in difficult situations, that need not be told to anyone (proprietary) and I wish President Obama would literally call Mr. Putin or Mr. Medvedev in seeking competent information and assistance. - The downward pressure per square inch measures in the thousands of pounds bringing about the forming of the seabed at this site which we have now pierced - can anyone imagine the almost unbelievable pressure needed to cause the crude oil and gases to be gushing outward overwhelming the downward pressure; into the sea? Good Luck to all...
