Senate Jabbers About Polar Bear Carcasses as Rome Burns

Nov 17 2012

With war breaking out in the Middle East and financial collapse possibly imminent at home, the time has come for lawmakers to address urgent priorities. So, having returned from a seven-week break, our representatives have rolled up their sleeves and tackled the difficult job ? of determining what to do with some dead polar bears:

The Senate has scheduled an early evening procedural vote Tuesday for a sportsmen?s bill that will decide the fate of 41 polar bear carcasses that hunters want to bring home from Canada as big-game trophies. Hunters killed the bears just before a 2008 ban on polar bear trophy imports took effect, but were not able to bring them home before the Fish and Wildlife Services listed them as a threatened species [even though they are flourishing].

The only threatened species I give a hoot about is Americans ? and as our government deteriorates into a total farce, we become more threatened every day.

Never mind the economy, all hail the sacred polar bears.
