Obama Back to the Gulf Coast June 4

President Obama will head to the Louisiana Gulf Coast on Friday for his third visit to look at efforts to fight the massive oil spill in the region, the White House announced Thursday.

The visit comes as oil company BP continues its efforts to stop the leak at its well about a mile below the surface of the ocean. The disaster, which began with the explosion and sinking of a deep-water rig on April 20, has already spewed millions of gallons of oil into the gulf and is considered the nation's worst oil disaster.
