meanwhile in the real news:

EW YORK (MarketWatch) -- BP (NYSE:BP) officials told members of Congress in a closed-door meeting that the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico could be spewing as much as 60000 barrels of oil a day, well over an earlier estimate of 5000 barrels a day, ...

BP has numerous reports claiming this scenario is "virtually impossible."

And when it comes to planning for this event, they purposefully have fought US egulations from requiring a safety valve that would stop it.

Early investigations have revealed that BP did not bother to install -- and that U.S. regulations do not require -- a backup device to provide another layer of protection in case the "fail-safe" shutoff valve failed (which is exactly what happened). Brazil requires such a device, and oil companies like Shell install it routinely even in the U.S. BP didn't because, at $500,000, it was "too expensive."

here is the BP virtually impossible quote

BP suggested in a 2009 exploration plan and environmental impact analysis for the well that an accident leading to a giant crude oil spill - and serious damage to beaches, fish and mammals - was unlikely, or virtually impossible.
