I am conservative and I don't have a virulent hatred for environmentalists. But I think perhaps part of the answer to your question is that the 'policies they recommend' are the problem. They are not just 'recommending' - they are passing, regulating and enforcing. To the detriment of our country and our economy.

The 'chain-myself-to-a-tree-person" and the "GW Political Machine" are two different animals that have merged into one very dangerous weapon against a free enterprise country and threatens liberty, economy and the republic as a whole.

I hav nothing to say about the original article. So I apologize if this peeves the topic police. But....

I have been speaking harshly to the AP photo captions for three days now and your comment of this story being one of suffering and compassion and 'politicizing' the event made me wonder if the AP photo captions were total incompetence (as I was believing) or more 'political' than I had imagined.

I am sick of reading the word "Looter" in every photo of someone carrying out food from a destroyed store. These people are survivors of a major disaster. They are not 'looters' - I see none walking out with Plasma TVs and other electronics. They need food and water. They are trying to SURVIVE.

Today, the AP headlines are calling them 'scavengers'. Really? Why looters and scavengers and not survivors and victims of this major disaster? I'm not trying to read anything political into this - it just infuriated me every time I read it.

They are already detaining people for taking the food that is spoiling out of the destroyed markets. Really? Why?

He canceled Fox on AFTV? This should be broadcasted. Do you have more information?

Very well put AJ. I would only add one thing, and it is with great hope that I say; the progressive transformation movement in America seriously jumped the gun.

The indoctrination was not complete. Had they waited another generation - there would be little to no resistance.

However, the growing resistance to their methods and motives is heartening. Indeed, the sleeping giant is awakening. We the people have taken off the blinders of apathy, ignorance and 'party'. There are still enough Americans that believe in and know what our country was founded and built upon, and they are not going to give up on it as easlily as the transformers had calculated.

It boggles my mind that anyone other than politicians would consider any added taxes a good idea to reduce the deficit or improve anything. The amount of waste and fraud is absolutely, positively, REDICULOUS. Until that is addressed and stopped (by any means possible as being discussed here) the idea of spending more, taxing more, is beyond stupid - it is the continued enslavement of the american people. Period.

Actually, it was worse than that - "I don't know - from his STASH". Obama Money! That audio needs to be replayed everywhere. More evidence that everyone should have to take a test to vote!

I'm no islam / muslim scholar but it seems I have heard multiple times (and there is even a specific word for it) that it is okay to pretend to not be muslim if it furthers the cause. Just sayin'

I also have a nineteen year old that did her fair share of arguing in high school classes with teachers and other students that were trying to shove the liberal talking points down her throat. She was definitely outnumbered in every argument - always felt like the lone conservative in her graduating class.

Almost two years later and her social network 'studies' have shown her that many of her 'friends' are as conservative and patriotic as her. Although, she still spends her fair share of time trying to teach her liberal friends the truth about liberalism and all the lies and distortions that go along with it.

Am I proud of her? You betcha!

My question exactly. What is the next step? This MUST stop.

Imo, the democrats are supporting the funding to make sure they receive acorn "help" come election time.

Disgusting. And this must be stopped now, long before campaigns get ramped up or it will be a given that things will be very ugly come election time.
