notice anything in my tag list that hasn't been mentioned in the past month or so?
we've all been duped, people. our government has flashed shiny objects in our faces (terry schiavo's feeding tube, major league baseball and sterioids, etc.) and said "look at this, isn't it pretty?" while they pass legislation to drill for oil in anwar, a national wildlife refuge in alaska.
and good for them. what this will actually do is give us not 50, not 100, but ONE year's worth of oil for the good old u.s. of a. plus, it's not likely that we will see any decrease in the price of gas when this happens.
it's alright though, you're all too stupid for it to make a difference to you. besides, with all this juicy hollywood gossip flying around, who has time to care about thousands of caribu. it's not as if this could
possibly be the beginning of a larger scheme to open up all of the national parks to the same sort of land-rape. there's no way that the government could possibly drill off the gulf coast of florida or clear cut millions of acres of forest in the pacific northwest. who cares about any wildlife that would be displaced from something like that and begin moving into the neighborhoods we built in the vicinity...like MOUNTAIN LIONS AND COUGARS, who like little tasty puppies and CHILDREN.
it's time we elect representatives who have our well being at heart and fire those who don't. get involved with YOUR country.
