Nice try again. But earthquakes occur much deeper in the earth than where the oil deposits are. That's why there is no known record of what you are suggesting. You must be getting your "facts" from FOX news.
PS Saying FOX news is fair and unbiased is like saying Glen Beck is an intelligent thoughtful person.
: I doubt they CREATED it. It's more like a natural disaster. You said yourself the oil was under tremendous pressure. It probably would have happened anyhow the next time there was an earthquake in that area.
: PS FOX news IS the only real news, fair and unbiased, no matter what you liberals say.
: : Nice try, bud, but wrong. Oil DOES seep out of the ocean floor from time to time, but the operative word is SEEP. The media is playing it up, of course, but they have to keep on reporting it because BP punched into a big underground reserve of oil that was under tremendous pressure, creating a gusher. By being unable to control that gusher, BP has created one of the worst environmental disasters this country has ever seen.
: : : The truth is, no matter what u say, it really isn't as bad as the press is making it out to be. Oil leaks out from the bottom of the ocean all the time.
: : : : I bet there will be lots of books about the BP oil spill. The books will be about the politics of oil, pro and con. I would expect the Fox "news" channel to be saying, "What's the harm in a little oil in the water? It will go away eventually so no big deal. Drill baby drill."
