The 'Spotted Al(gore)' is becoming extinct in the political world. People have reported some sightings, but the species has not re-established itself.
This little bird makes me want to cry every time I see it. Im from a small logging/farming community in the northeast corner of California, and my community was wiped out by politicians from Sacramento and environmentalist from Berkley.
They came up and told us that we were destroying the environment, and they were going to put a stop to it. They did! At the time, people didnt believe it. Community leaders said, These city slickers cant tell us what to do or look at their cities, paved over, trees cut down and replaced with parking lots. But they put a stop to small town life, small town tradition, and small town culture. They destroyed small town values.
Generations of hardworking families were reduced to welfare recipients over night. Now their children have no jobs and no futures in the town. They seem to either leave, or turn to drugs. Generates of hard working people turned into government dependents.

How can you tell how much something has decliced if you don't know how much there is to start with?
Rights, farms, environment ping.
Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this list.
I don't get offended if you want to be removed.
Some logging family in my home town handed out a picture of a spotted owl nesting in a K-mart sign. They were trying to prove to the environmentist that the owls didn't need a dark quite place to nest. Unfortunity the environmentist had already made up their minds, and didn't need any hillbilly to tell them about the environment.
If anyone has seen this picture, I would love to get a link to it. I tried to google it, but had no luck. Please help.
