I had never wanted to stop accepting comments but, as you can imagine, I was, for awhile, spammed by some really authoritarian types. There were some threats among them. I am moderating comments now. I missed the comments and am happy that so many readers who were 'here' in this blogs inceptions are still waging the 'fight'. <br><br>SadButTrue posted this item..<br><br><em>"...American “wolfers” drunk on homebrew slaughtered 20 or more Assiniboine innocents camped nearby."</em><br><br>I support severe penalties for the murder of animals!

glad to see you accepting comments again,...Hi Len,<br /><br />glad to see you accepting comments again, and all the best to you and yours.<br /><br />I have been, and continue to be, fascinated by the Wolf. By way of some terrific documentary work I have been fortunate enough to have an introduction into the life of this magnificent creature brought into my living room. And yet we have merely scratched the surface of the lives they lead, and the lessons they could teach.<br /><br />Conversely, I have had far too much of the self-serving arrogance and blind lust for power, at all costs, demonstrated by Grifty McQuitter and her soulless ilk.<br /><br />In a just world, wolves could climb aboard helicopters and hunt this crass and craven quarry to extinction.Williamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19580203.post-91635045055670968822010-12-25T14:26:33.888-08:002010-12-25T14:26:33.888-08:00AFare24Get sez..

The Fairness Doctrine and ownership limits preventing media consolidation were TARGETED not because they failed but because they WORKED. Opposing viewpoints --including those of liberals --were guaranteed airtime. Now, if you oppose LIMBAUGH or BILLO just TRY to get on the air! Lotsa luck! <br /><br />I am FUCKIN FED UP with the right wing and the GOP specifically. Screw these bastards! And SCREW 'triangulation' or 'accomodation'. It's time to radicalize and DECLARE FRICKIN WAR on these assholes. <br /><br />A good way to start is by getting a list of the biggest advertisers on the MSM. BOYCOTT THEIR SORRY ASSES! Don't let what little wealth is left 'trickle up' to these lyin', right wing extremist ASSHOLES!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598093941551759917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19580203.post-46452285376248487972010-12-25T02:49:38.509-08:002010-12-25T02:49:38.509-08:00Hi Len, great article on a topic that deserves mor...Hi Len, great article on a topic that deserves more attention. Maybe the mainstream media could spare a moment from covering Paris Hilton's latest hairstyle, or Lady Gaga's new boyfriend to devote some time to this story.<br /><br />re:<br />>>and, in any case, they use land<br />>>owned by the public for 'free<br />>>grazing'.<br /><br /><br />This is the sort of thing that really angers me, along with mining corporations that get to conduct their operations on federal land owned by the public (and who only pay pennies on the dollar for the valuable minerals they extract).<br />Same deal with the public airwaves, which We The People own, and yet the federal government lets pigs like Limbaugh use this resource to spread their Nazi filth, for free.<br />Corporate welfare has continued unabated under President Obama and with the "Citizens United" case, we can expect things to get even worse in the years to come.<br />I hope you have a great holiday season, Len.Marc McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17105754072842852126noreply@blogger.com
