Teh Crazy Lines Up Behind BP Apologist Barton

by TheGreenMiles

Rep. Joe Barton, best known for his groveling apology to BP CEO Tony Hayward at the height of the Gulf oil disaster, says the rules don't apply to him - he wants an exemption to committee chairmanship term limit rules so he can once again chair the House Energy & Commerce Committee in 2011.

His fight against Rep. Fred Upton (R-MI) is looking increasingly quixotic. How bad is it? Just look at the members standing by him:

Gulf of Mexico Liveblog Digest (Part 2)

by Gulf Watchers

Gulf of Mexico Liveblog Digest (Part 1)

Since 26 May, a dedicated group of Kossaks have liveblogged the numerous attempts to kill the blown-out well on BP's Macando Lease. We've also talked about everything from geology, ecology, biology, and petroleum science to coastal culture, food, and history. In short, we have contributed to the historical record in our own special way, while giving everyone a place to discuss, contemplate, and mourn. Thousands of words, scores of motherships, and a fair number of photos and videos have been posted - most all with our blessings.

Many thanks to Ed at dKos tech support who was enormously helpful with the data used to compile this digest.

Please note:  THIS DIARY WILL NOT BE TENDED FOR COMMENTS.  It will serve as a directory or repository for all future mothership and ROV postings.

Please do not comment here - find the latest Gulf Watchers' diary here.
