Nice redirect.

That was funny without sound but my computer speakers at home are the fritz.

Beck is a complete stooge and the White House's biggest ally.

Care to address anything I said?

Oh hey KK at your leisure buddy. Wouldn't want to strain a man of your age.

I'll be on pins and needles anticipating your response.

Didn't realize that Obama wore an ear ring.

Don't worry about this sh!t, it is all hype.....he's in big trouble at home right now so I think he'd rather escape for a bit and be out flinging a few flies if he had time........

Mingo that's hilarious! I love "The Onion."

Liberals and conservatives both fish. Differences I've observed is that liberals, on average, tread a bit lighter on the earth, employing techniques that leave a smaller footprint and using land and water transportation that burn less fossil fuel. Conservative anglers, again, on average, are less likely to be involved in environmental activism, are more likely to live and fish in ways that leave a larger footprint, and use land and water transportation that burn the most fossil fuel. Liberal anglers tend to fish public water, while conservative anglers are more likely to fish private waters.

An atypical example would be the Moisie River Salmon Club, whose members are mostly "captains of industry" types, who own and or run corporations that pollute US waters, but no matter, they own a private river in Canada for their fishing recreation. The members live and fish with a maximum footprint on the landscape, tending to live in mansions, employ numerous servants (the Club has a staff to member ratio greater than 2:1). This is not all bad, as it creates employment and redistributes a small fraction of their wealth.

Of course, it is the exceptions that prove the rule, with Hankster fishing with his man-powered kayak and Aunty who grows her own food (but what's that parked in the mega garage?). There's probably even a liberal on this forum who drives a gas guzzler and a boat that burns gallons per hour. But again, on average . . .

WRONG........but maybe you'll get a nice parting gift.
I'm sure I fit into your liberal label and, on average, I fish the salt 2 to 3 times a week from mid June through October. Am actually slowing down on river fishing because I'm getting tired of tweakers, sleds and combat fishing mentality.

I balance out driving a gas guzzler by only having man-powered boats!

This entire topic is typical of the last year...one wingnut spouts off about something that he is making up out of thin air...one media member picks it up and runs it...ten pundits pass it around to their readership (also a bunch of wingnuts) who accept it as gospel without doing one iota of fact checking.

Those wingnuts organize a protest (ala TeaBaggers), and make signs with poorly spelled words...and gather around to protest the nonexistent issue.

The protest is picked up by the news, and then they run it as actual news, rather than as the half-baked protest about nothing perpetuated by fear-mongering partisans that it is.

A few cooler heads prevail and spread the actual facts of the situation, which, not surprisingly, bear little resemblence to the original story being peddled by the fear mongers.

A half ass retraction on page 48 below the fold, that virtually no one reads soon follows.

The fired up TeaBaggers, against all facts and logic, now cling to the story as hard as they cling to their guns and bacon, continuing to spread it.

Even if they accept that the actual story they are fear mongering about is false, they just skip right past it and say "well, it could happen!", and then continue to protest the nonexistent threat as if it already had happened.

While neither major party has a great track record with disseminating the truth, it's awfully clear which of the two employs this method of "political discourse" far more often than the other.

Fish on...

Just a modern version of McCarthyism, the party of fear, smear, and NO.

So do you think that game refuges that are located on land, to be a restrictive action toward hunters?

Whatever happened to those Fred Flintstone vehicles? I bet the oil companies nixed them as they used no fuel.

"and the boat... hasn't been out of there since last May. When it does get used, it spends more time on anchor or on shore than running."

Isn't that your definition of a Liberal?
