Then the most reliable use for the New York Times (wrapping fish) will have vanished.

Catch Post #36....

Remember that these folks aren't being paid to find nothing. And, if they say "Yup, all clear. Everything's fine.", then they're all out of work.

Unfortunate that the papers always fail to mention that little fact.

That makes the fish too dizzy to procreate.

overfishing is an extremely serious environmental issue.

I’m sad to see people dismissive of it here.

Unfortunately the leftists have cried wolf over so many bogus issues that when a real issue comes along people don’t take it seriously.

fundamental restructuring

I noticed that this has become one of the Left's recent favorite euphemisms. I suppose they imagine it sounds less threatening than "nationalization" or "communization"--which is exactly what it means.

UN “experts” could f*** up a cup of coffee. Why does anything they say carry any influence whatsoever?

We need more vegans in the world. Except that we need to turn crops into fuel.

Man needs to just kill himself off to save the planet!

Quick, we must launch a new worldwide UN agency to buy and sell Fish Credits to make sure
that the poor nations can keep fishing as much as before while rich nations pay for it all.

(I hate to give them ideas but someone will surely suggest it anyway.)

Notice that Barack Obama called it “healthcare reform” instead of “healthcare restructuring”.

Economic reforms would have included tort reform. The goal was to subvert the system by nationizing healthcare, not reducing costs or expanding coverage.

Out of fish? The ocean isn’t a restaurant with a limited supply. Sorry sir, we’re out of the Red Snapper. May I suggest the Blackened Tilapia?

Somebody tell the UN that fish reproduce.

Filling the gaps created by ClimateGate, I see. Somehow I bet Algore’s fingerprints are on this one, too.
