I didn't refute anything. I simply displayed how silly his argument works out with that Media Matters link. Heck, you'd think he'd be proud of quoting a George Soros backed source. God knows there aren't enough anti-semitic organizations willing to take money from billionaires willing to crash the entire economy of third-world countries to satify their mesianic fetishes.
The list of Media Matters’ foundation funders, 120 in all, reads like a Who’s Who of the American progressive movement, including the far-left Tides Foundation ($4,384,702), George Soros’ Open Society Institutes ($1,075,000), the Ford Foundation ($966,466), the Sandler Foundation ($400,000) — endowed by subprime mortgage lenders Herb and Marion Sandler, who once bankrolled the embattled ACORN organization — and the Schumann Fund for Media and Democracy ($600,000), managed by longtime PBS host Bill Moyers and his son.
They also include the anti-George W. Bush organization MoveOn.org ($50,000), the Barbra Streisand Foundation ($85,000), the kids’ shoes-powered Stride Rite Charitable Foundation ($25,000), the Lear Family Foundation ($55,000) — endowed by the TV producer and People for the American Way founder Norman Lear — and the Joyce Foundation ($400,000), whose board of directors included Barack Obama from 1994 to 2002.
Therefore, we can conclude that "wind turbines kill eagles" is a not a valid criticism of wind power.
Sometimes it's just amazing the corellation bias can develop.
The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act - The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668-668c), enacted in 1940, and amended several times since then, prohibits anyone, without a permit issued by the Secretary of the Interior, from "taking" bald eagles, including their parts, nests, or eggs. The Act provides criminal penalties for persons who "take, possess, sell, purchase, barter, offer to sell, purchase or barter, transport, export or import, at any time or any manner, any bald eagle... [or any golden eagle], alive or dead, or any part, nest, or egg thereof." The Act defines "take" as "pursue, shoot, shoot at, poison, wound, kill, capture, trap, collect, molest or disturb."
A violation of the Act can result in a fine of $100,000 ($200,000 for organizations), imprisonment for one year, or both, for a first offense. Penalties increase substantially for additional offenses, and a second violation of this Act is a felony.
A natural resource so important that it holds extreme consequences for the public, but companies that perform the right services are made immune.
Targeting specific birds, how many top of the food chain birds do cats kill? I have doubts that cats or glass panes are killing as many eagles as windmills.
Demanding institutionalized discrimination to correct anything is a bad thing, and a threat to everyone. Much like one political party whining that the other political party used the same tactics in reverse against them, discrimination does not develop changes in attitudes, it reinforces them.
Because in your pathetic world, shooting MLK and Malcolm X was the right thing to do because they dared to envision a world where people cared about people; instead of imaginary privilege memes created by morons that need some excuse to discriminate against people.
We've all got sob stories. simply because your story consists of being a douchebag doesn't mean everyone else has had the life of Riley. It certainly doesn't mean others deserve to be discriminated against to satisfy your misplaced guilt complex.
Seriously, you're the problem, mate. Discrimination never fixed anything. Conducting social experiments with innocent peoples' lives to satisfy your narcissistic guilt is a poor option.
You're a fucking moron. Terry McAuliffe, the governor who made this deal, served as Chairman of the Democratic National Committee from 2001 to 2005, was co-chairman of President Bill Clinton's 1996 re-election campaign, and was chairman of Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign.
You're a funny guy. Now you apparently can read people's minds and make sweeping stereotypical decisions about their economic value based upon their skin color. Really, you're a full-on douchebag. I hope your decision to discriminate against people for simply being born helps you sleep at night in the pitiful place where you rationalize that hate.

So I take it you concur that assigning eagle deaths to house cats or glass panes was so much bullshit, then? Yet it rates Informative 3.

I could care less about making you do anything. It's just commentary on your level of douchebaggery.

Why be a wuss about it? Break free of being an AC wimp and start slaughtering people!

I find your dismissive attitude repulsive.

Find a fucking dictionary and look up the word "cliché-ridden".

As long as the government can feel good about itself, why should they care if you can barely afford food?
Obviously being the Chairman of the DNC is a DINO. Too funny!
Don't laugh. I've friends hired as translators for the prestige of employing an American. Crazy stuff.

...and you they said you couldn't be courteous or civilized!
Really? Got any stats on the cats killing adult eagles? I'd love to see that one.

But... Kos says there's death panels for Black people! Death Panels actually do exist... if you're Black....
Yeah, not seeing that "cat kills bald and golden eagles" statistic. Reference?
