Ron Paul Teams Up With Barney Frank To Reduce Military Spending

Great interview on “The Situation Room” with Wolf Blitzer with Rep. Barney Frank and Rep. Ron Paul regarding the need to reduce military spending. Although the two Congressmen disagree as to what can be done with the massive savings, they do agree that America will be better served by a government that no longer spends in excess of one trillion dollars per year in managing an unsustainable overseas empire. Perhaps this will be the first step. We can all agree that this country is in the midst of a massive economic downturn, and that money spent in managing an overseas empire is money that is being taken out of the hands of Americans who could really use it.

CONFIRMED – LAB TESTED Gulf Coast Water Samples are ‘VERY TOXIC’

Oil and water samples were taken from both the Shores of Grand Isle and from 20 miles out. The preliminary analysis was done at an academic analytical chemistry laboratory. Looking for the likely pollutants from the deep water Horizon Oil spill. It was focused on the detection of benzene and propylene glycol. Benzene and other highly toxic contaminants were very low however the concentration of propylene glycol was between 360 and 440 parts per million. Just 25 parts per million is known to kill most fish and propylene glycol is just one of many ingredients found in Corexit. In short, the Gulf is being poisoned by BP's usage of the dispersants even after the EPA asked them to stop back in May. We are willing to provide ANY respected/known laboratory these samples or provide them with more. This is very serious to all people and marine life in and around the Gulf. added by: TomTucker
