Polar Bears Win Protection

baby-polar-bear.jpgAfter several months of delays, the polar bear has been declared protected under the Endangered Species Act due to global warming. This is the first time in history that global warming has officially "endangered" an animal, and the great white bear is the first species the Bush administration has put on the endangered list in two years. This is the longest gap between new animals added to the list since the Endangered Species Act was signed into law in 1973 under the Nixon administration.

As the current moron in the white house is almost gone, he finally is trying to do some good, at least for the Polar Bears. Too bad this moronic fool has ruined the middle class of America!

Great post!

Until Bush and Co. are gone, I'm dubious having them listed as an endangered species will provide much protection for them, considering your whale story from the 30th.

I have no idea about that. I like the dog in the picture download in my PMP or MP4!
