Outrageous The Number Of Skimmers Off Coast Of Fla (VIDEO)

Senator LeMieux “The President needs to take more action. There are only 20 skimmers off the coast of Florida. With over 2,000 skimmer vessels in the U.S., according to Admiral Allen, it makes no sense to me why there are so few off the Gulf Coast,” said LeMieux. “I am going to continue to draw attention to this until I see more skimmers helping to clean up Florida’s waters.”

Senator LeMieux has placed a “Skimmer Watch” alert on his website to track the number of skimmers operating off the coast of Florida. The alert can be viewed at LeMieux.Senate.gov.

Oil Spill Boom

Goodtimepolitics: The images above is not ones taken in the Gulf Oil Spill,  these are the type of skimmers needed there which the United States has many of,  if I heard it right,  there  are 2000 skimmers in the United States that Obama could send to the Gulf Coast oil spill.  He should have acted the first week of the spill by sending skimmers and booms to keep the oil from reaching the marsh lands and beaches. I have worked with these skimmers and they do a good job of picking up oil off the top of the water.

State Department reports today 17 countries have offered 21 times to send aid, including skimmers. Why has the White House refused help? SOURCE

Goodtimepolitics: Come on Obama and send the equipment needed to clean up this oil. Its now 59 days and you’re showing that you have no experince on how to handle a crisis! Ready on day one you say, yea right! Your 3am red phone is ringing!

Arrest Warrants Issued For 11 ACORN Workers

Arrest warrants have been issued in Miami for 11 people suspected of falsifying information on hundreds of voter registration cards.

Florida state attorney Katherine Fernandez-Rundle said 11 workers hired to register voters by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now — or ACORN — submitted 888 fraudulent names. She said the names included people who were already registered voters, fictitious names, and the name of the late actor Paul Newman, who died in Sept. 2008. Read More

So just how many fraudulent names were submitted across America if 888 were submitted just in Florida and we’re not sure that there aren’t more! Obama is still giving Acorn our tax money when people are losing jobs and homes! Obama is as guilty as Acorn! For these workers to be submitting fraudulent names all across America someone higher up had to be directing the workers on how to!

Obama said not long ago that we would not see unemployment-rates higher than 9 percent! What happen Obama, didn’t know what you were talking about? Obama your spending spree did not help jobs now did it?

(1) Housing Market Disaster Worsens
The brief moment of hope that housing had hit a bottom and that both the rate of home sales and prices would improve is slipping away. The pressures that will push prices down, by another 20% in some markets, are rising interest rates and an unemployment rate that will almost certainly go over 10% and stay there for several quarters.
