from the bp website, the bp drilling and well operation policy. yes, sir. yes, sir. now, i believe that on page four, the second paragraph, i think you read that before i think you read that before. it is about a business unit leader. leader. can you read that again for me, sir? the business unit leader is accountable to assure that any deviation from policy and established procedure, and all non-routine operations have gone under a of corporate risk assessment, and permit measures have been taken to manage the risk prior to the performance of the operation. yes, sir. if you have two in one day, does that qualified as non-routine? as non-retain at this stage in the project? it was not out of the ordinary to have to change the depth of the well. i also consider the tapered strain that was the other moc, because it was really in line with the basis design, i did not consider it non-routine. ok. so, based on that, he should not have been notified as the business unit l
55% rate in 2011. that s unacceptable in my view. the good news frankly is presumably it is unacceptable to most republicans. what does that do? that undercuts their major strategy for the last eight months which is to delay and to obstruct. they need to have this passed because their policy will result in an objective they now say they don t want. so that i am very hopeful we give to families the certainty of a rate. my own view would be that when the house passed 3.5 and 45% it was a good compromise and should be adopted. it reflected inflationry increases in values of estates. it gave to to i don t know the exact percentage, but over 98.5% of the states exemption from the paying estate tax. in interest of time. congressman? this is the last question. thank you. thank you majority leader hoyer for your comments, i appreciate it. i m monica mire. thank you with your help with the bill this week. that was a victory. eo encouraged our republicans to reflect and

to be taxed, hidden or otherwise, in the midst of an economic recession that we really find ourselves in a difficulty getting out of. i would suggest that even in good times i mean, you could pinpoint you can try to pinpoint on the calendar when those words this would evade a terrible piece of legislation. it was just would be unbelievably bad if we tried to enact a given the current economic situation. i believe we are trying to do it may be a noble cause, trying to get us into a new era of energy, something different from our traditional supplies, which we are going to need. the reality is we are going to need those supplies today, tomorrow, and the foreseeable future. i think what we are trying to do it they are trying to do is a noble but misguided driving up the price of today s energy so high with the hopes that something will come around a corner the next week that will be a substitute. what they are doing is attempting to drive us to the jetsons but they
