Yes, they don't like shooting wolves from planes in the winter when they look like video ga,me targets running across the snow (that is a paraphrase form the article). IOW, they can't control their kids so they take it out on Alaskans.

I am guessing Mike and Levin will have a thought or two to share about this:

Wow, little red riding hood would be ecstatic.

Consistent as usual. They've never met an animal they didn't want on the endangered list. Does it balance out?

I see this stuff as playing right into McCain's hands. How is this publicity helping Obama to get the good people of West Virginia who went for Hillary by 40 points after Obama had the nomination lockded up? By the way, I think Floridians have had a belly full of this stuff, probably more than any other state.

Without making a judgment on the pros and cons of wolf bounty, let me say that Obama supporters can't blame his declining poularity on racism as long as polarizing information like this is being made public by Obama supporters.

Palin's support for gunning down wolves from hovering helicopters is polarizing information? Sure, such information sends Landpoke into a delirious orgasmic tizzy, but a great majority of Americans see this practice and understand when I say, "Where's the sport in that?" It's unadulterated animosity towards an animal.

Like Waters said, this is the same old extremist crap some Republicans love to flaunt just like high school football jocks love to parade around the most recent nerd they've doused in syrup and tied to the goalposts, most likely with a supreme wedgie and female underwear taped to his head.

Geez, that's awfully descriptive. Did something bad happen to you?

What are you talking about? Does this look powerless to you?


To me it looks like a fearsome creature that needs to be confronted and dealt with.

Preferrably from high altitude with a scope and a rifle.
