How would those desk jockeys ever know. They would never get off their asses to check anyone out. Prolly wouldn’t recognise a cow or pig (unless it had lipstick).

Give new meaning to the phrase “making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.”

It almost certainly would start Texas tipping over the edge to secession. We have an awful lot of cows here.

Dam* Another tax. Along with NAIS tagging every animal. Just another expense I don’t need.

The law perverted! And the police powers of the state perverted along with it! The law, I say, not only turned from its proper purpose but made to follow an entirely contrary purpose! The law become the weapon of every kind of greed! Instead of checking crime, the law itself guilty of the evils it is supposed to punish! Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850)

The more people who suffer terribly in the next 4 years, the better. They (and unfortunately we will be affected also) deserve it.

It is pretty much guaranteed, on a county-by-county basis, the darker red the map, the more the suffering.

Going to be a lot of wild cattle back in the draws. Wonder how much the ranchers will charge to let us 'hunt' one?

Not to worry. I read where they are able to clone a ‘meat’ product now without having to have an animal? Don’t know if I would want to eat it though. Just grow it in a test tube. Sounds delightful.

How would those desk jockeys ever know?

Easy, they'll hire a bunch of illegals to come out to your farm and count them, or they'll just use Google and a bunch of satellites to count them from space.

Is it just pigs and cattle or haven’t these idiots figured out that people will end up eating goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, sheep, and, um, ...whatever?

Congressional Stew

1 liberal congressman
20 onions, chopped
25 carrots, sliced
25 turnips, cubed
15 granny smith apples
20 cloves of garlic
1 bottle of white wine.
1 ginger root
2 T thyme
1 C brown sugar
salt & pepper to taste

Gut congresscritter. Don’t save the liver unless it’s a first term congresscritter. Anything older and the liver
will be useless.

Remove any parasitic lobbyists attached to congresscritter’s rear.

Debone the congresscritter. You will notice that most of them come with their spines already removed.

Be sure to remove lymph nodes and earmark glands. Save the tenders for a special occasion.

Gird the loins. I’m not sure what for but we can ask the forBiden question later.

Set aside two rump roasts. Everything else is useless fat to feed your dogs.

Parboil the rump roast with the bones, half the onions, half the garlic and the cayenne. Remove bones and excess grease from broth. Add wine and reduce.

Cube roast into 2” chunks. Put everything into the kettle and bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer ...

The Enviro-Nazis can’t sleep at night knowing that there is one factory or farm operating in this country. For that matter, maternity wards give them the hebe-jebees too.

If they want to limit greenhouse gases, the EPA should close Congress.

I truly believe that somewhere in a dark room sits a committee whose sole purpose is to nickle and dime us to death. Soon our lawn tractor will become a luxury vehicle and will need a license and the EPA will want its share for the exhaust my electric dryer emits.
