Has Isaac Blown Any Remnants Of The Deepwater Horizon Gusher Up?.......

I remember when they were cleaning up this mess that a lot of the oil was buried or covered with sand on the beaches and I'm sure a lot of it still exists in the wetlands of the Gulf. I'm just curious if Isaac has upturned some of it and whether or not it will become a hazard again after Isaac blows over.

It turns my stomach when I see the commercials by BP about how the Gulf Coast has recovered and they invite people down there. I can't believe that they've cleaned things up as good as they have said or that they are trying to brainwash us into believe. Especially after it took so long for the remnants of the Exxon Valdez to be cleaned up and I still think that is a problem up there.
