The birds and the Butterflies

In grade school in the 50's, we were required to read Silent Spring and had the crap scared out of us.  We were told that all the birds would be gone soon so we should look at them while we could.

You know what's really funny?  I now live in an area that probably has the highest amount of agricultural chemicals dumped on it per square mile than any place on earth.  Every time I step in my backyard I am amazed at the number of birds I see.  I routinely see at least a dozen species and in large numbers.  This valley has more birds than any place I have ever lived and believe me that's a lot of places.  I cannot drive to work after dark without seeing several owls.  There are usually some laying dead along the road because they are not too smart about cars.  The river I cross is full of Egrets and ducks and geese.  The daytime sky is full of flocks of birds of all kinds going in all directions.  We have a butterfly population explosion every year in late summer.

So how long do we have to wait for the Silent Spring?  I'm pushing 60 and can't wait forever.

So pardon me if I sound just a tad skeptical about this garbage.

SILENT SPRING UPDATE:  Our cat just deposited a bird on the doorstep so it will be a little more silent around here.  I would post a picture but I'm afraid it might be some endangered species and I don't want the cat to go to jail!

The Butterfly Effect. And today's hysterical environmentalist scare story comes to you from Britain.

A milestone study of British birds, butterflies and wild flowers has revealed the strongest evidence yet that we are on the verge of a mass extinction of global wildlife - the sixth mass extinction in the history of life on Earth. Scientists have accumulated the most detailed data to... [Right-Thinking from the Left Coast]

A year ago.... the liberation of Iraq began.

Since the liberation of Iraq, thousands of lives have been saved from prison, torture chambers, rape rooms and execution.

I am happy for all the people of Iraq, who now have the freedom to determine their own destiny.

I am proud to live in a country that is willing to sacrifice so much so that so many can be free. I am proud of this nation's leader, President George W. Bush. I am proud of the men and women who serve this country at home and abroad in this war on terrorism.

America, what a country! [Reality Hammer]

The Mass Media Guide on How to Become an "Activist"

1. Murdering people makes you a killer or a terrorist. But if those murdered are Jews then you are an activist.   You might also be a militant.

2. Crashing jet planes into buildings makes you a terrorist. But attempting to shoot down civilian planes landing in Israel makes you an activist.

3. Placing large bombs on trains in Madrid makes you a terrorist, but placing bombs on Israeli buses full of children makes you an activist.

Mad Cow!

I ran this about a week ago.  Sent it to Flabbergasted but they don't seem interested so screw them.  Probably because it came from a warmongering American instead of a pansyass European! 

It's funny as hell but it does have some naughty words.  So if you are easily offended ... move along.

Democrats Undermine Legal Process

I know, the title contains a "So what else is new?" element about it. Nevertheless, this report makes my blood boil.

As the dust settles in the Judiciary Committee fuss over Republican snooping into Democrats' memos, several legal scholars said yesterday they were shocked by a memo showing staffers in Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's office plotting to manipulate one... [Kim du Toit]

USA Today Says Reporter Faked Stories

The newspaper also said "the evidence strongly contradicted" other published accounts by Kelley: that he spent the night with Egyptian terrorists in 1997; met a vigilante Jewish settler named Avi Shapiro in 2001; watched a Pakistani student unfold a picture of the Sears Tower and say, "This one is mine," in 2001; interviewed the daughter of an Iraqi general in 2003; or went on a high-speed hunt for Osama bin Laden in 2003.

Hotel, phone or other records contradicted Kelley's explanations of how he reported stories from Egypt, Russia, Chechnya, Kosovo, Yugoslavia, Cuba and Pakistan, the newspaper said.

The three former newspaper editors brought in to conduct the investigation - Bill Hilliard, Bill Kovach and John Seigenthaler - called Kelley's conduct "a sad and shameful betrayal of public trust."

Just the tip of the iceberg.  How many other reporters are doing the same thing? 

So keep on reading your wonderful newspapers and watching your network news and letting them fill your head with fiction.  I saw it on the news so it must be true....right?

Perhaps the most damning allegation, and illustrative of the genuine purposes of many of the purported "anti-war activists," is that Lindauer is alleged to be involved with arranging to provide assistance to Iraqi insurgent... [Kim du Toit]
