Not much in the news today, however, the following story on a recurring topic has a couple of amusing reader comments that illustrate the hypocrisy of hard-core environmentalists arguments crystally clear.
Joseph Weber, FoxNews.com, writes that “Oil companies say a weeks-old Obama administration ruling that protects a Southwestern prairie bird has already halted oil-drilling operations in Kansas and is costing the U.S. economy tens of millions of dollars, as a GOP congressmen suggests the move is another job-killing attack on fossil fuel.
He estimated that about 3,000 people in the Kansas region will be impacted, considering it has roughly 50 oil rigs that each employ about 15 workers, who are typically married with two children.
"It's certainly a job-killer in my district," Kansas GOP Rep. Tim Huelskamp told FoxNews.com on Wednesday. "You have to wonder if it's by design when you have a president who has declared a war on coal."
Here are the readers comments:

rick.case added: ‘Taste like chicken, great with BBQ sauce and a little hot sauce.”
Some things to think about.
