Bush saves Polar Bears from Mike Thompson!

Polar bear put on endangered list. Thank God for a little common sense. I do not support the idea of killing just for sport or trophy bagging. Why Congressman Thompson voted to continue allowing American hunters to import the heads and hides of polar bears killed in Canada is beyond my comprehension. House votes to allow import of trophies from polar bear hunts And none of his supporters have given me a decent explanation. Many of his die hard fans do not even realize he voted for the continuation of the killing of polar bears while the process was in place to put the bears on the endangered list! Check out his polar bear hunting Campaign vote.

I do realize that Mike has done good things for our District and I agree with most of his stances such as his vote to withdraw from Iraq, his support of the Employee Free Choice Act, his calling for the impeachment of Cheney and his vote to ban waterboarding.

But I do take exception of his vote to increase pesticide poisoning of corn crops used for ethanol, and his vote for the Alternative Minimum Tax Relief Act [H.R. 4351] which would lower taxes on the highest income Americans and his aggressive nature to argue angrily with protesters or anyone who do not see things "Mike's" way, instead of trading dialogue peacefully.

With that said, I read Mitch Clogg: How I differ from Mike Thompson article today in the TS. This guy is a writer? Wow. He said pretty much nothing. His web site Mitch Clogg for Congress was a mess. His blog was not much better. Clogg Blog

Doesn't leave much choice for us democrats this year.

So are you a complete commie now Mark? If you don't want to sport hunt,hunt for meat or hunt for intellengce doesn't mean the people who do should have to "do it your way". You seem to have the HCDCC line, of we know what's best for you,down pat. To bad. Thompson is right on this issue. You are a nut.

Pesticides/toxic pulp spew...6 of 1, half a dozen of the other. Would you feel better about the pesticides on corn if you were getting paid to apply them?

The Bird Man was caught again . First he was caught stealing Droz's political signs & next he's caught
stealing plants . ( read - Fred's Blog )

I wasn't aware Droz had any signs during his campaign, except for the little paper ones that were tacked up on telephone polls. You're not supposed to be stapling or tacking things on telephone polls, anyway, so if someone was going around taking those down it's no big deal.

Where do you think more money for conservation comes from, hunters or anti's?
