The legislation has the support of the NRA, and fewer regulations and hurdles for sportsmen — who are the greatest conservationists you will ever meet, I might add — that simultaneously rain on the over-controlling parade of the enviro-bureaucracy’s many regulations (although they may actually get a few other ones out of this, ugh), is a small but solid step in the right direction.

Run on, much?

The Senate’s first order of business: Polar bear carcasses

Obviously, millions of jobs are at stake….somehow….

True. Dead Hamas leaders and attacks on long-range missiles is almost as enjoyable as reading about hunting polar bears. Except I have more sympathy for the polar bears than the Gazans.

I think trophy hunters should only be allowed to use bow and arrows when after polar bears,…or Kodiak brown bears for that matter.

Only if they can use bait…like you.

Hmm…

Hunters in the Northwest Territories used to receive $400 when they submitted polar bear pelts to Genuine Mackenzie Valley Furs, a government-run fur marketer. For this season, authorities have upped the figure to $1750.

I get enough of a rush stalking feral hogs with an AR and a sidearm. You’d have to be on bath salts to go after a polar bear with a bow. I suspect it’s already been done, but that’s a bad sort of crazy.

Not in Canada. Hell, they even jail’em in Churchill. Manitoba.

I’d hate to be in the next cell..

But I thought they where endangered? Global Warming and all.

And get ready….Senator Mark Kirk (Illinois) is coming back to work come January. While he’s made a remarkable recovery from a devastating stroke…..he’s still the same old moderate he’s always been.
“Kirk tells WLS that he will make a ban on dumping sewage in the Great Lakes his priority for this Congress”

*sigh*

We’ll make it a fair fight………Harry will be armed with a rubber band and a pea shooter.

But I thought they where endangered? Global Warming and all.

rich801 on November 14, 2012 at 11:07 AM

Please don’t tempt them. They’ll soon start banning ice cube dispensers in home refrigerators, if we don’t shut up.

The Senate is doing the bare minimum

I see what you did there. Nice.
