Mary Landrieu actually said...

"The damages caused by the oil spill could last years."

"We have had eight straight months of increasing unemployment. That is a direct result of the drilling moratorium."

"We have paid out in the last 5 weeks about 85,000 quick payments totaling almost $700 million."

"Thank you, Senator Landrieu, for calling this hearing and special thanks for your staff for inviting me today."
