Congressional Committee Presses Oil Execs About Gulf Oil Spill
By Paul Schott - Politics DailyCongress grilled oil industry executives about the massive Gulf of Mexico oil spill for the second straight day Wednesday, as a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee probed whether their companies ignored key warning signs of the disaster.
