i like queen elizabeth – she is always so dignified
Again, CNN needs to get the Obama administration on their program to ask why they are not fighting the oil like a WAR as they claim? Why wasn't there a FLEET of ships collecting oil since the first week when oil spill first started? They said the volume of leak did not matter & they were preparing for the worst case scenerio (250,000 barrels/day as per BP's disaster plan) – so where was/is the effort to meet the worst case scenerio? Minimal OIL would be hitting the shores if the collection effort matched the worst case scenerio. Minimal damage to wildlife and clean up personel would be sustained!
Who is answering the lack of urgency and response effort by the government? Keep THEM HONEST!
@Mike Kelley
they can't just cap it, locking or otherwise, because it's leaking below the surface, below the blow out preventer, which is why the top kill, junk shot, etc didn't work.
what they're not saying is that the relief wells probably won't work either.

Lack of immigration enforcement hurts all americans and companies which abuse low cost labour which illegal immigrants provide. If illegal immigrants felt more insecure/threatened by being in the US illegally, then there would be less appeal to enter & live in the US illegally. There needs to be ramifications for entering the country illegally. Illegal immigrants can easily be duped to perform "slave labour" currently so employers of illegal immigrants should also face stiffer penalties.
If the US wants to help more Mexicans access the US maybe they need to increase legal migrant workes but have this a documented and controlled system. I support Arizona's effort to deal with illegal immigrants and provide better living conditions for legal citizens.
Goodnight AC360 Team and fellow bloggers.
Good show tonight Sanjay.
Stay safe and try to stay cool everyone.
Seems as though the five governors in the Gulf states need to get together and ask "What would Arizona do?" then get about getting it done without the feds.
How did she handle the heat in that outfit?
She can really move and is pretty sharp for someone who is 84 yrs old.
The supremacy clause applies where there is a conflict between federal and state law. If the Arizona law only criminalizes what is already criminal under the federal law, where is the conflict?
Thanks Sanjay for filling in for Anderson tonight. Good evening all...
Super great show tonight Sanjay and good night everyone.
Re the weather: why does NOLA always seem to have bad luck?
