Default Panel: Gov't blocked scientists on spill estimate

Oops, they must have gotten the wrong memo, surely this could not have been the BHO administration!

WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration blocked efforts by government scientists to tell the public just how bad the Gulf oil spill could become and committed other missteps that raised questions about its competence and candor during the crisis, according to a commission appointed by the president to investigate the disaster.

Why would the President appoint a commission to investigate something they were supposedly trying to hide?

People who refer to the leader of the free world by his middle name can't think those advanced thinkitudes you offer up.

Who is this "free world leader" you speak of? Last check most of N. America was free, but does not share the same leader.
