Don't get me started. I know damned few "nature lovers" who could survive one week in the wilderness. Nature doesn't care. Nature would kill them. The 'do-gooders' wail about "agri-business", then go to the store and bitch about high prices. They complain about CO2 emissions while turning the air conditioner down. They cry about dependence on "foreign oil", but have no problem stopping drilling in their own country. They demand "green industries", evidently thinking that all the products they use daily are grown on trees and not MANUFACTURED. Then you have the Nanny's who want to dictate everything you do (or don't do). They're never satisfied. It's always for your own good, and "Oh, and one more thing......"

I don't know how author did it, but there is not mention in that whole piece about coming after the "evil SUVs." Don't know about the rest of you, but here in CT the MSM still writes/speaks about SUVs crashing into buildings, trees and people. Vile, evil, deadly things those SUVs (the Upset Old Gal is on her third).

Garandfan,

Shut up and die already. That's what the enviros want anyway. My answer to them is that they should lead by example.

Brilliant.

Provided, of course, that anyone is listening.

Liberty: you don't know what you got till it's gone.

Incrementalism has always been the preferred method of these liberal fascists.

I invent the internet and this is how you right wingers treat me?

From my post Dr. Sanity nails it! ...

One reason I'm a Republican is that, while we may be cursed with a few of those she describes, the Democrats seem absolutely infested with them.

First they came for my mercury batteries. So I stockpiled 3 of a particular kind so that I would have enough for 60 years for that camera. Even today, the only battery close to the old one is those Zinc-air pieces of crap, the rest don't work in that camera!

Then they came for my lightbulbs, so I stockpiled 120 of them for the one light fixture that positively will not work with CFLs. And if Mercury was so bad in batteries, then why is it allowed and PREFERED in light bulbs?????

In another year or so, I'll be 'bulb running' (Arizona to California). Seeing as our nanny state won't allow incandescent to be sold any longer.

I'd like to thank the idiots in Sacramento for giving me an opportunity to supplant my retirement income.

Now you know why healthcare is so important to them, they will use the burden on the healthcare system argument to justify taking anything they want away from you. You like to have a beer now and then too bad, several people abuse it an cause a burden on the healthcare system. You enjoy a donut once a week or so tough luck too many people eat a dozen a day and cause a burden to the healthcare system. You like cola that's a shame better get used to carrot juice, too many people drink too much and cause a burden on the healthcare system. JOB NUMBER ONE NEEDS TO BE TO KILL THE HEALTHCARE BEAST.

Drop an incandescent light bulb. Minor cleanup. Drop a CFL. If you follow the directions - it's a MAJOR HAZMAT situation.

Could we have a moment of silence for the demise of the Happy Meal in San Francisco?

I didn't eat veggies when my mom told me to, and KALIFORNIA tells us we can't have a toy if we don't eat them?

Can't write more, I am busy formulating my frivilous lawsuit agains Oneida - they made the forks too big, resulting in my weight gain.
