OIL SPILL OR GOVERNMENT CONSPIRACY

OK, so here I go again.
I heard an interesting broadcast on the radio last night concerning the "oil spill" in the gulf. First of all, what a horrible disaster this is. Much bigger than even Katrina. In the aftermath of Katrina, Pres. Bush was not only berated because he didn't do enough, but his overall ratings went to their lowest point and people wanted him out of office. Along comes this even greater disaster and so far no one seems to be aware of the consequenses and they put no blame at all on O'Bama. Why is that?
In this radio broadcast there was a discussion on the potenial catastrophic dangers that could result from the accumulation of methane in the gulf. There seems to be evidence which suggests that a massive bulge of methane is forming under the ocean floor. If it suddenly bursts open, the methane could reduce the bouyancy of the water, causing any large ships in the area to suddenly sink and kill thousands of people. The collapse of the bulge would cause water to fill the hole and create a tsunami that would hit the coast within minutes. I suggest that the lack of action coming from Washington is because they know this is a potential danger by not letting the people fill the gulf with boats and in not letting journalsits in the near vicinity. Because BP's 'mud log' data is unavailable to anyone outside of BP, there is no way in predicting when such an event could occur. According to some people I have heard on the air, if methane gas is there then so are many other gases. Some of these gases are lethal if inhaled. If BP is giving it's clean-up workers gas masks then there is a chance that these gases will soon blow through the breeze to land. What are the people not only in these areas but even up to the midwest supposed to do now? And why isn't the government letting us know what is really going on?
So now the First Amendment has been suspended forbidding anyone including journalsits, bloggers, or photographers to approach any oil clean-up efforts, equiptment or any boats in the area. Anyone caught is subject to arrest, a $40,000 fine and possible felony charges. Anderson Cooper of CNN, a liberal, I might add, reported that there have been instances of strong arming to keep the journalists out of the area. Some of the things they and the government do not want you to see are the pictures of the wildlife, covered in such thick oil, they have no chance. Another image they may not want us to see is the actual size of the damage. Help has been offered by other countries but they have been turned down.
A Big Brother approach is being used in the gulf area by criminalizing journalists, censoring their stories and trying to keep the American people ignorant of what is going on. Our government no longer recognizes the Constitution or the Bill of Rights because the first right is Freedom of Speech, which includes the right to walk on a public beach and report on what is going on. It is one of our most basic rights as Americans. As we just celebrated the 4th of July, Independance Day, to be free of oppression, why are we standing for this obvious breech of our basic rights? The O'Bama administration has stripped away those rights without any fight from anyone. What rights are next? What happened to 'the land of the free'?
