Yea! CNN says “the oil has gone bye bye” and now we can go back to talking about something else.

It’s All Over

Good news! CNN just reported that the the oil has “gone bye bye” and is wondering if this whole oils spill thing was hyped by people with an agenda. Apparently the government is saying that only 25% of the oil is left —- the rest has been naturally dispersed, chemically dispersed, evaporated, burned or otherwise disappeared.

A killjoy reporter on another network pointed out that if the most optimistic numbers are correct that it would still mean that there are more than a million gallons of oil — four times the amount of the Exxon Valdez — left in the water. But whatever. It’s all good.

The GOP clearly miscalculated. If they had known that this catastrophe would be no big deal by August, they could have kept “drill, baby,drill” at the top of their November agenda.
