IMMIGRATION REFORM: The Left has a history of breaking immigration promises.

FROM HUNTERS AND FISHERMEN TO ENVIRONMENTALISTS: "You're Welcome."

For the last couple of decades hunters and fishermen have contributed over $1.5 billion per year towards environmental protection in the most genuine sense.... A study by the National Shooting Sports Foundation found that for every taxpayer dollar invested in wildlife conservation, American hunters and fishermen contribute nine.

The Pittman-Robertson Act (1937), you see, imposed an excise tax of 10 per cent on all hunting gear. Then the Dingell-Johnson act (1950) did the same for fishing gear. The Wallop-Breaux amendment (1984) extended the tax to the fuel for boats. All of this lucre goes to “protect the environment” in the form of buying and maintaining National Wildlife Refuges, along with state programs for buying and maintaining various forms of wildlife habitat.

So please note: to "preserve nature," they don’t tax Birkenstock hiking boots and Ying-Yang pendants – but do tax my shotgun. They don’t tax Yoga manuals and Tofu tid-bits wrapped in recycled paper – but do tax my 30.06 deer rifle. They don’t tax binoculars or birding Field Guides with cutesy photos of the red-cockaded woodpecker and spotted Owl – but do tax the shotgun shells I blast....

Going further, they don’t tax Kayaks and rock climbing picks and ropes – but do tax my compound bow and rifle scope. They don’t tax the plastic water bottles on Mountain bikes (or the mountain bike itself, come to think of it) or the cutesy spandex shorts these yo-yos wear – but do tax my duck decoys and camo pants. They don’t tax Yanni and Enya CDs – but do tax the arrows I fling....

Read it all.

LOOK, A SQUIRREL! Jonathan Chait calls President Bush stupid. Five years into the administration of the worst president in American history and it's 'blame Bush' time again.

CONGRESS WORKING to strip presidential land grab power -- before he uses it to designate the United States as his own 'national monument'. (Don't give him any ideas. -Ed.)

SPACE FISHING: Nets, harpoons could be used to haul in space junk.

"'COMPREHENSIVE' IMMIGRATION REFORM suggests that importing more potential voters for the Democrats has a higher priority ... than safeguarding the country."

IS OBAMACARE turning health care into a luxury? I don't know that there's anything 'luxurious' about lousy care.

The closer I get to government-mandated healthcare (i.e., Medicare), the more scared I become.

IS THE MEDIA BIASED? Or just plain stupid?

REAL SCIENCE, or just another 'global warming' attack? Earliest satellite maps of Antarctic and Arctic sea-ice assembled from 1964 Nimbus-1 spacecraft images.

One can hope for real science, but I wouldn't bet my hat on it....

HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS: bending the medical costs curve. But they're not available in government-sponsored 'healthcare' (ObamaCare, Medicare, TriCare) because they permit the patient to control his/her/its (in deference to other genders) own medical care.

CALIFORNIA'S LATEST SUICIDE ATTEMPT: The California state legislature is poised to pass a “Homeless Bill of Rights” which (hopefully) will encourage vagrants from all across the United States to move there.
