Reports about a cover up by oil giant BP and the Obama Administration as to how much oil the Deepwater Horizon accident is really spilling into the Gulf of Mexico are beginning to surface.

SkyTruth.com estimates the true spill rate is more than 1 million gallons a day, based on satellite and Coast Guard images.

At that rate, there is an estimated 21 million gallons of oil currently floating around the Gulf of Mexico.

Sources within the Obama administration, FEMA and the Corps of Engineers have been “resisting releasing any "damaging information" about the oil disaster, according to oilprice.com.

If unofficial estimates are accurate, the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill will be the worst human and environmental disaster in the history of the world.
