WASHINGTON |
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Most of the oil from the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico is gone thanks to containment, burning and skimming measures, the energy adviser to President Barack Obama said on Wednesday.
"The good news is that the vast majority of the oil appears to be gone," Carol Browner said on ABC's "Good Morning America."

Not completely true. They can’t account for it, so they assume it just disappeared. You do this in the real world of business and you go to jail.

Given that the vast majority of the spill is believed to be lying at the bottom and middle layers of the sea, the collection and containment so far seem to refer to the limited amount that surfaced to the top layer of the sea.

what A crock! It is unbelievable what the government will say and the people will believe. Do they ever tell the truth about anything. How does oil just disappear? The lies and twisted truths will be the downfall of the USA sooner not later.
