Care about nature? Read this...

President Bush is slaughtering the environment!
He has removed laws that protected the air we breath and the water we
drink. He has opened up national forests to major logging and road
building. He is promoting oil and gas drilling in nature reserves.
He has removed laws that protected endangered and threatened species.
He has taken actions that will make the effects of global warming even
worse, leading to more droughts and wildfires in some regions and
serious flooding in others. Basically, he has undone DECADES of work
done by environmentalists and is THE most environmentally destructive
president in history. If you care about life on this planet, DON'T
vote for him.

How can you help?
1) Vote Kerry - "an environmental champion"
2) Tell as many people as you can about the devastating things Bush is
doing to the environment and encourage them to vote for Kerry.

Jerry,

This is a pond ng rather than a political one.

As a rule, this ng does not enter into OT discussions.

When we do, it tends to be with careful identification of an OT post and
without strident advocacy.

By all means find an appropriate political ng for your post.

Jim

Careful guys, this one is crossposted all to heck and gone.
None of which are political, by the way.

I, for one, think that there is a certain validity to this discussion within
the context of the ng (in my case alt.fishing).

Now, I'm Canadian, so I won't be voting for either candidate. I have a
significant interest in the election as a gambling vehicle, but I digress.

It's important to remember, Jerry, that many of the roads that afford us
access to the nature that we enjoy so much were originally made and are
currently maintained by the forestry industry. Too often, nature lovers
misunderstand the place that logging has in the ecosystem of a forest. I
agree that the forestry industry has abused their privilege frequently, and
continue to do so. I would like to see that change as much as anyone here,
especially in regards to salmon spawning streams, but to think that the
choice you make in the voting booth on the presidential ticket will have a
lick of difference is as foolish as hoping to catch a whale in your local
trout pond.

It's not going to matter. Kerry, Bush. the same corporations will control
the forest as do now and I suspect that they will be subject to the same
checks and balances (or lack thereof) as they are now. Face it, we're
doomed.

Your best bet if you care about nature and harmful practices within it is to
be a keen observer and report any violations to the proper authorities. Keep
your camera close at hand.

My gold fish have informed me they like Republicans.***** They like
unhealthy junk foods, they despise the strict liberal vegan diet, they
don't like the all natural lib ponds with no artificial pumps running
24/7 and they don't like liberal no mining policies or bans on
underwater plant logging.

They also like multiple pre-emptive and defensive measures taken
against Osama Bin Herron and Osama Bin Raccoon. Each one of my 30
goldfish are voting for Bush.

Okay, well if your goldfish get to vote, then my frogs say they'll vote for
anyone who promises to turn that fountain on the White House lawn into a pond
for frogs.And while they are at it take out the rose garden and turn it into a
bog garden. And forget the White House dog or cat and let's see a White House
bullfrog!
