According to the Federal Government, whose official motto will soon be changed to "Trust Us, We Know Better Than You Do", the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is now just a fading memory. An astounding 75% of the gazillions of gallons of oil that leaked into the Gulf has now been "collected, dispersed, or evaporated". A full three-quarters of the messy, toxic goo has been taken care of already. That amazing turnaround is just unbelievable. And I mean that in the literal sense that I don't believe it.
Where are my skeptics? Where are the conspiracy buffs

All Better Now?
August 9th, 2010 by Ronald A. RoweRe-elect Harry Reid?
July 26th, 2010 by Ronald A. Rowe
How could this have happened? The Harry Reid era was over and done. His grand arrival on the national stage highlighted his every foible and magnified his failures to the point that he was un-re-electable. It was just a matter of waiting for November.
So how it that Harry Reid is leading the latest Mason-Dixon poll of likely Nevada voters? There’s a perfect 4-part storm swirling about that could easily sweep “Dingy Harry” back into office.
Part 1 – A Weak Opponent. It all started with

Can They Take a Nobel Prize Back?
July 5th, 2010 by Ronald A. Rowe
It isn’t easy saving the world. Sometimes, you have to make tough choices. Let’s say, for example, that you are on a mission to single handedly save the world from the global warming caused by former President George Bush. Sure, you’ll win a Nobel Prize for making a movie of yourself standing in front of an easel displaying factually-inaccurate slides. That’s good. And you’ll make hundreds of millions of dollars selling nonsensical “Carbon Offset Credits” to corporations willing to buy goodwill with the environmental crowd while continuing to pollute just as much as before. That’s pretty nice, too.

Where Have You Gone Chain Gang Charlie?
June 22nd, 2010 by Ronald A. Rowe
Charlie Crist, lame duck governor of Florida, represents an interesting case study in political survival. Governor Crist, once known as Chain Gang Charlie for his relentless hard-core approach to handling criminals, has had a change of heart in recent years.
As recently as last year, when he switched from Governor-mode to candidate-mode, Crist was attempting to out-conservative opponent Marco Rubio.
As recently as last week, Crist was speaking publicly about his very private faith and how it has shaped his public policy.
Two days after that stirring speech, Crist vetoed a law passed by the Florida Legislature that would have required

Alvin Greene
June 15th, 2010 by Ronald A. Rowe
Alvin Green, the newly-selected Democratic candidate for South Carolina’s Senate seat, is everything that the Democratic Party loves.
He’s a minority. There is nothing that the Left loves more than soothing their own white guilt by promoting a minority candidate. He’s unemployed. Gotta love the unemployed living on the government dole. He’s an outsider who rails against the establishment. He decries society’s ills and offers to solve them without offering any specific plans.
Really, it’s small wonder that Greene was able to unseat Vic Rawl, a Democratic Party insider to win the Senate nomination. But
