Something Smells in Texas City – and it’s not BP’s oil !

Three days ago, we reported on some troubling developments along the Gulf Coast in a post entitled “Why is the First Amendment Suspended on Independence Day?”  It was the first account of a restrictive policy by the U.S. Coast Guard that threates to impede an independent accounting of what’s really going on with the continuing environmental disaster as explained by CNN’s Anderson Cooper.

Now news crews are reportedly being harrassed by local police in the name of “Homeland Security,”  reportedly at the request of BP officials.  What?  Why?   The last time I checked we still have a free press in this country, don’t we?  Wake up America.
